You can get better deals than that. 17" rims are a mistake, I promise you. I thought they would be fine... I was unhappy for a year and a half until I finally decided to save my money for new wheels.

It's extremely uncomfortable. It's okay at first because you're excited, but after the initial excitement wears off, the comfort factor becomes annoying. Every time you ride over a bump you will cringe.

By the way, the sig I posted is the right size, the one you have right now as your sig is kinda squished. When you uploaded to photobucket did you make sure that the resize option was like 1 megabyte, or at least bigger than the picture?

I'm not sure, i've never ridden on cut springs. The way I feel about it is that if you buy the 17" rims, you'll soon be wishing that you got 15" or 16" rims, preferably 15".

I've made that mistake before. I wanted 16" Enkei RS-5's, but they were out after I had already paid and offered me 17" Azul Cross6 rims instead. Me being impatient, I said "okay" and that was the worst decision I have ever made with my car besides deciding to buy my old 1993 automatic, base model, tan interior civic.

Just make a project thread. This stuff doesn't need to be in it, and if it does, just repost it in that thread.
