Icon2 Best looking oem Honda/Acura 4 lug rims?

Right now I have 13" steelies on my car and I'm looking for something that looks a bit better....but not only do I want something that looks better but also something that will perform like stock steelies(i.e. wont scrape against the chasis,tires are relatively low cost,rims wont bend when hitting a pot hole due to the tire being low profile).So I guess oem Honda/Acura alloy rims will do the trick.

I would also like rims that are a bit bigger because the stock 13" steelies look really small.

So I was just wondering if someone could tell me what rims would probably be best for me?Also would bigger rims decrease performance in any way?(the car is a 93 Honda Civic sedan,4x100 lug pattern)

They both look great.Would I have any problems since their bigger rims?Also does anyone know the tire sizes they take so I can find out how much they are to replace?

I have Si wheels on my 92 hatch, they look real nice polished. but blades are nicer.. and no problems.. depending on how well you want your tires to perform, you could just get 195-50-15's. or 205-50-15's for a lil more grip. and price depends on the tire.

Si rims are nice, and fat fives. GSR blades aren't bad, but they're not my favorite.

just by reading the title of this thread I'm just going to say to the OP that you will get nothing but opinions to sift through which may or may not help you at all. hahaha but IMO I'm going to cast my vote for polished si's
