Default Good rim size (already seached)

Im starting to look for a set of rims. Im tired of looking at the 13's with the chipped hubcaps. What rim size and offset should I look for on a 15" or 16" rim.

agreed ^

reasons:
looks good
lots of tire choices
cheaper tires
won't rub (unless u get really wide tires, sometimes)
ride will be nicer w/ more sidewall

15" is as high as I would go, for ride quality reasons. Anything bigger than that becomes a really rough ride without any real handling improvements. In addition, the larger the rim you have, the more weight you'll have further away from the center of the hub, and this hinders your acceleration/deceleration.
