neverending saga for perfect wheel size.

well my kit is on and everything...but i look at it from different angles sometimes and my rims just look small!.. i know i could prolly go for 19's... but i was sure 18's would look decent.
i think it may be my tire size. (21/35/18) that makes it look small.

what do you think would look good on a 94 accord wit bigmouth kit and commando wing.

19" RH C-3's? or 19" (new) C5 evos?

c5's

c3's

I like the C5s, but don't you think 18s would be heavy.

you can comfortabley fit 225/40/18 on a 43 offset 17x7 on your Accord with a 2.1" drop or less without problems. I know you sAid yer 18s looked small, well , this would make them look even smaller, but with 19s, your limit really would be 215/35/19, this leaves little to protect from even low speed potential bends. It would suck to spend $1200-$2000 on rims alone only to bend one a week later.
