16's or 17's

alright.. i'm just outta H/S and dont have much cash.. infact as of right now i got about 500 to my name.. and i'm lookin in to gettin some wheels after a few more paychecks... I got a '95 civic EX with some beastly 14's as of right now
I was wondering if ya'll can post some pictures of your cars that have either 16's or 17's on them.. and lemme know ur opinion on whether i should go with the 17's or same a lil dough and go with the 16's.. because i've seen cars with both.. and there doesn't seem to be much of a difference.. and plus 95 coupes are quite small. so both would look big...

my Civic is black. should i go with powder-coated, chrome, or black?

lemme know. thanx

15's or 16's match the size of our cars best. 17's+ make them look like wooden carraiges.. Plus the smaller, lighter rims are best for performance because our torqueless motors won't have to turn as much.

here's my civic on 16s

Well, 16's would work best- 15's are too small, but 17's + Lowering springs will make a Civic look the part, though really I think if you want the best looks- but want to keep the handling, then you've got to get the 16's.

Now if only Rims weren't so darned expensive in New Zealand....

OMG KICKER! YOUR INTEGRA'S 15'S ARE FUCKING GAY AND UGLY! I WOULD NEVER INSTALL THAT SHIT ON MY CAR! Here is my car below with 15's

Just an fyi the 99-00 Civic Si rims were 15's, and they match the shape/size of the car perfectly.

I say flay black 15's...I have 17's on my car and I want to go down to 15's...

sage, you're a fucking idiot.

My civic on ummmm..... 20's? 19's?
