Default New wheels...You're opinion?

Hey, i have a 1999 honda civic EX coupe (black, with an Si spoiler) with the stock 14" hubcaps on right now. The car had been in a slight wreck before i bought it and the back right tire/wheel is wobbling, so i had it checked out at a shop and said it was just the wheel, not anything more serious. That brings me to my question, i've been looking online at wheels and have found some nice 17" hyperblack wheels that i had been looking at, then i found some 15" civic Si wheels in perfect cond. Normally i would want something like 17's, but considering i can get all 4 Si wheels for only $151 (plus shipping) i have really been considering getting them. Basically i just want your opinion what what you guys would do.

Thanks, Evan

I personally would go for the si rims but if I have the money I would go with the aftermarket 5 spokes dish in rims.

Si Rims....

17 Inch Rims are gonna make your car slow, ricey, and slower!

I mean if your going for show car status go for it. But if you want a Clean lookin ride go for Spoon Rims, CTR Rims, or Si Rims 15 Inch!

Oh wat the hell do wat you want its ur car right?[sm=smiley20.gif]
