pros and cons??

i have a friend with a 92 civic hatchback who said she'd trade me rims cuz shes selling her car, she has a 92 civic vx so it only has the 13 inch rims,
what are the pros and cons of switching from my 13 steelies to 13 vx rims??
thanx

The look

The look

GTA= wheel whore damn man i've seen your car with like 5 sets of rims you big pimp you!

Same here

ya, I guess the pro would be the look better, I don't think there would be any handling increase....

Man, they look really good on GTA's car.. I like them.

And they're quite likley lighter than steelies. Swap 'em!

haha, aint it true. too bad they werent all mine. all i have owned is steelies, a set of chrome rims i took off before i lowered (and only have one pic of em) and then my current rims.

both the vx rims, and the enkeis i have had on were amis.

whats the difference between hx and vx rims?

Man, if you already have a funked up clutch why are you even beating on your car? 60hp burnouts have to get old fast don't they?

well mainly cuz i'm going to be buying a ZC soon, if i make it to the bank tommorow i'm gonna toss the deposit on the motor, its gonna be awesome when its done and in :)

and no not 60 hp :p its like what? 92? lol

and no 60hp burnouts do not get old because you really can only do them when it rains and it doesnt rain everyday....so i actaully prefer the rain over sunny days when i drive my car now...

Ya, because whats driving if you're not showing off your 17 second rocket anyway!?

well here u guys go, pics of the rims
