are these good rims?

http://www.1010tires.com/wheel.asp?w...wheelmodel=MR7

i saw these rims in a bronze glossy finish...and they looked sooo nice...im just wondering if thats a good brand...and if its a good price for rims?

also...if im going for a mix between looks and speed...should i go with 16's? or what?
thanks.

Re: are these good rims?

the price is not to bad(i have seen cheaper rims), but i do not know if they are a good brand or not. 16's should be the right size. if you go above that it does not look good (personal believe).

Don't go with Motegi if you want light rims. They are heavy. My friend had those exact rims but they were 17s. Freaking weighed a ton and the 16s aren't going to weigh much less. You can probably find them for cheaper than that too if you look around.

depending on how much money u want to spend...try Advan or 5Zigen for some nice bronze wheels. they look really nice in my opinion.

actually 16's look small on a honda still, my opinion... and also, if you go to Pep boys, they actually have the motegi MR7 wheels in a 17X7 for $101 per wheel, which is one damn good price, and you can also order a set of kumho ecsta 711 tires in the 205/40 R17 for 51 dollars per tire off of tirerack.com thats a set of good wheels and tires for 600 dollars, can not beat that price!
