Re: 17" Enkei's on CRXSi? yes or no

aright well i can i can pick some 16's up from another friend with 85% low-pros for about 400 canadian i guess i'll just go for that then spend the extra on droppin it a bit lower. The rims dont got as nice of a spoke pattern or anything, but i guess i shouldnt sacrifice performance for looks.

Re: 17" Enkei's on CRXSi? yes or no

this is what a hatch on 17's looks like...



they are harder to steer, accelerate, and slow down a little...not much more than the 16's. it's all a matter of personal opinion if you like the way it looks and rides
