i *use* to think 17 were perfect for integras (still kinda do) but had to decided between speed or looks...then i saw a red teg with Volk TE-37's in 16...and it looked good so 16's are fine..for looks..tires are cheeper..wheels are cheeper..performs better...

IMHO, the only rim that is worth buying on 17's are the liteweight ones. The rest are garbage!

10K2HVN

well thats what i had in mind...

MintyDip

what ever floats your boat

hmmmmm there are som really light 17s out there.
my 17 in ssr and kumho are actually lighter then my 15 kosei and azenis

those azenis are heavy

10K2HVN

How light are your ssr's??? im looking into some 17's that weigh about 15 lbs...not the lightest but i havent seen anyone with them yet soo.. id like to one of the first... more likely that ill get the 16's tho...

joebenz

unless you have a body kit or plan on getting a body kit, i wouldnt suggest 17's. they make a teg look too big/high no matter how low you try and drop it. i would never go bigger than 16's

mr.beeks

is this your daily driver?
how are the roads around the way?
are your front tires wasting from the inside edge?
if right now you feel the bumps forget about later w/17s
ingalls kit not enough to correct camber need more kits from skunk
so good luck w/choice

i chose 15's to avoid rubbing to keep the weight down and to save on tires, i prefer 16s over 17s but somehow i dont think that my 15 look that bad

smallttocs

i like them 15's but its up to you. whatever you like, i mean it is your car and all.

Dan GSR

I have 17's now....
I'll be ordering 15's at the end of the week.
Gonna sell my 17" rims after the 15" are mounted...probably ebay if no one here buys them.

HuskerHybrid

not a teg but still a honda, these are 17's, you cannot get a better fitting size for the well than a 17.

I just happen to have a set of 17x7" white Motegi MR4's for sale. The lug pattern is 5x114.3. They came off of my 97 Prelude. I have only driven on the for about 6 months. The tires are Nitto's and have about 75% tread left on them. I am selling them because I was to buy larger wheels. I am looking to get $800 for the wheels and tires. If you need any more info or pics you can email me.

too big!

i like 16 better. here is mine with 16 inch motegis. they look like 17 to most people.

17s are nice for 2002+ civics
for 00and below i dont like 17s
for integras i like 16s
for HBs 15s are nice maybe an occasional 16

id never put 17s on an EG or EK

ajchen

whether 17"s should go on any car is a matter of personal preference, and i would venture to say that many of the people who complain about performance losses on 17" rims are people who dont have the driving skills to even notice. in terms of power loss, we pay $500+ for catback exhaust systems on otherwise stock cars. they hardly give any performance gains... nuff said.

here are 2 integras that are *IMO* aesthetically stunning... and i love the fact that they are on 17"s.

slvrcivic97

those look good

motegi

Those SE-37's are dope. i wanted them before too, and i still might want them. they're just my size too. 17s on that car fit just right.

Bizwhap

I had 17's on my car for about a year. The look of 17s on an EK is nice as hell, but it's really not too practical..... I sold them a couple months ago. The difference in accceleration and gas mileage is definately noticeable. I say you should go for some 15's, or at the most, 16's....

That's just me though, I'm tired of the big rims look.... or any looks really for that matter.... function has to follow form now, I gotta save pennies everywhere possible, and tires for 15's are hella cheaper than for 17's.

If you really want 17s though, go for it.... they look ****** good as hell, they just cost a lot, get scraped up easier, and **** your gas mileage and speedometer.

unless your an all out racer.. and i mean hardcore.. then go for it.. i have 17s and they look perfect imo... i still have my stock gsr rims, but white on white is just too sweet especially when the white is the same.. :drool:

slvrcivic97

You mean form has to follow function
