Default Help with rims

Hey guys,

Here's the situation. When I bought my civic, it came with 17" rims. However, I'd like to gain more performance by putting on 15"s on there. The 17"s also scrape my car whenever I have passengers, when I hit slopes at high speeds or do high speed tight turns.

Now I'm considering the following options:
1. stock integra rims
2. stock civic si rims
3. rota slipstreams (royal gun metal with polished lip, silver, full royal steel gray)
4.rota circuit 8 (royal gun metal)
5.rota torque
6.rota boost
7.rota attack (white, silver)
8.konig imagine (black w/ polished lip, silver)

I'd appreciate it if you can do some photoshopping for me. Here is the link for all my photos http://ufcebuano.multiply.com/photos/album/3
Much thanks in advance!

Here's the first four, hopefully skate hasn't started. Skate can do the rest unless he wants me to.

yeah i was actually thinking about removing the rear spoiler. i'm not really big on spoilers, i like the sleek look. but it would take a bit of money and labor to get the spoiler off, so i definitely have to save up first for it. do you have any ideas on how to remove the spoiler or any ideas on how much body shops charge for removal and work on the trunk?
