I made a mistake...now help me do it right..

Yes, I realize now that those 17's are way too big. Now that I have the LS motor in, it rubs the front fenders. Plus it's like night and day when I have like 14's on it. So I want some really nice 14-16" wheels. Lightweight. What size should I go with and still have good all around pick up.

How can I make sure they will be lightweight?

Thanks

The smaller they are, the less they have to turn so 14's are a good size. But 15's won't hurt much either.

I'd go with 15"s, they are fairly light and there's usually a wider selection of tires for them too. Plus your 17"s should be really easy to sell. GL

:iagree: 15"

Heh heh 15's....... in particular, THESE 15's

I say 16s if they're for show, or 15 if they're for go.

They're going to be a lot closer to what your current ones look like. Also check out tirerack.com, they can show you what the wheels will look like on your car.

those visions are SWEET

personally i'd go with some 15 inch Motegi MR7s

Remember you can get 15s or 16s and can still be heavy as hell. For a long list of wheel weights starting with manufacturers and then lots of aftermarket brands click here (http://www.superhonda.com/tech/wheel_weights.html)

those visions are SWEET

I KNOW I've fallen in love with them I wouldn't give a fuck if they were heavy. I called ADR and they DON'T FUCKING EVEN MAKE THEM ANYMORE!! I'm so fucking pissed off. Now I have to search the planet to see if I can find somebody who has a set.


What about these? 11lbs 15" Konig Heliums

those are nice, paint that inside lip red and they would be pure sexy.

i still love maglites

god i'm having the most awful time finding wheels!!!

I think the gunmetal ones would look cool with your colored car...

I've made fun of your big wheels numerous times!

Anything over 15 is a little excessive.. 15s are pretty good, 14s are awesome but hard as hell to find. HX wheels are sweet choice in 14" and they're cheap as dirt.

Like these? The 14's

look too small...need 15-16"

Why? Just because they're not tucked doesn't mean they're too small.

Yes, those are HXs.

Tucking has nothing to do with your rim size, but more your drop.

My car looks like it sits lower with 14s than it did with the 16s. Less finger gap.

Ooh.. That picture was likley taken on somewhat uneven ground to explain why it looks like a major fender gap in that pic.. I just noticed that.

I actually don't like the black wheels. Should have gotten silver.

You are right, it's the first time I like ever parked all crazy I didn't care. I can hardly open my door the ground is so uneven.

Those wheels are free, I'm going to put my slicks on them. I haven't got my new wheels yet, I'm going to get the silver Konig Heliums on the previous page.

NOPE...choice of tires is limited and 14's aren't that wide...
