Default Introduction, and questions about rims.


Hi,

My name is David and untill recently I havnt really been interested in Honda's, untill about a week ago when an 99, black civic was passed down to me through my brother. He had some silver rims on the car that really didnt suit my taste, so I just had him place the stock ones back on, now the car looks funny because its lowered and tinted but has stock wheel. Besides those fwe things the only other mods on this car is a cold air -intake, and i wouldnt know its a slow car because its my first car and am not really interested in hauling ***. Anyways, I am messing with the idea of puting some kind of rims on my car, ones that wont mess with the with gas mileage or performance ( unless its for the better) of my car. Meaning that having the car last is more important than looks. I dont have a budget right now but want something thats pretty decent, about what it takes to get some entry level rims from a reputable company? I really like these rims http://www.motortrend.com/road...civic/ and the rims in this dudes little icon (xerxes) https://honda-tech.com/zero...40721 does anyone know what size of rims I would need, and how much the previously mentioned rims are? Thanks for any help and look forward to many great times with my new Honda!
