Default 16 or 17 inch rims...

My friend plan to get new rims.. He want to know which size go better on 2000 Civic.. He already lower it with Coilover.. So I told him that get 16 because it is lighter and more reliable to drive with 16 inch rims.. SO I have 17 inch Racing HArt before and I dont like it anymore.. SO please tell him what the different... Thanks

It depends on the rim, not all 17in rims are heavy. The ones I plan to get are 12.5lbs, lighter than a lot of 15-16in rims out there.

14" Hx wheels, can't beat the weight for the price, and they look great painted.

16inch will most likely be cheaper, however 17inch rims/tires are lowering in price aswell. so...
