New Rims! (maybe) Pic
I traded my friend wheels for the day to see how i liked them... Clearance is fine, but when i first took it for a test drive around sharp turns it was rubbing against somthing. So i went back to the garage and noticed there was a piece of metal sticking out on the L and R side wheel wells, so i just bent them up and the problem was fixed.. Anyway i might buy these off of him for $550.. What do you guys think??

They're not too big in my opinion like others are saying - but if u buy 'em, buy bigger calipers, I don't care if they don't work better, it looks like **** because the brakes are so small :-P.
If you disclude that fact, and look at them in and of themselves, in and of a rim...
Look pretty good...I mean they're like 50 inches wide (I don't like to go any higher than 16's, 17's on occasion...but that's not on a civic)..but if u like that man,
go for it - I'd say it's a good deal..
But, I know he's your friend and all - take that **** to pep boys and balance 'em...why? 'Cause one of the rims might be dented - happens easily on those big azz rims like that (lower structural integrity compared to a solid or closed one)..
Just what I would do. Though yes, I'd have to say they seem like a good buy.
I want to put 15's or 16's (def. not 17's) on my civic because the 14's look rediculously, rediculously, small on there but I have to find a good deal...then you have to worry about where they're located for shipping....but you don't have to worry about that - local buy.
They seem like an okay deal to me, I'd do it IF YOU HAD EXTRA MONEY - if not, I'd just say whatever, maybe some other day.
