I don't ride on the rims, I drive on the tires.

More is always good!

 

15x7 Esses Speedmaster, cheap as heck.

 

Since mine is a right hand drive 96' Type R with 5 stud conversion and using Civic Type R rims, so in that way those rims are not stock for my car.

Well, I didn't say post all of them, I just wanted to take a look at a few.
Is there any reasons you guys chose 15's over 16's?

 

Price price and the price of tires

Not to mention that 15 inch tires are more available in different sizes.

 

i'm riding on 15'inch spinnaz stunna..

"Its Da LuX son, it ain't that hard!" lol

i'd have to guess because of the price and the weight for the people that take their cars to the track)

You can find a 16" wheel that has the same total weight as a 15".

It has to do with both gearing and the effects on the FD ratio, and rotational mass and where the weight is located and how both effect acceleration.


For occasional or frequent weekend warriors that stick with street tires, the 15" also provides availability of good, cheap, grippy tires and relatively inexpensive wheels as well.

This pic is gettin some use today:

Volk TE37's 15x7" +43 offset with 225-45-15 Khumo Ecsta V700's



Combo Kosei K1's 15X7"+45 offset front and Stock rear wheels with Azenis 205-50-15 all around



You really can't see but it has 15x6.5" steelies and AVS90's on it, the hub caps are on the ground. Inside are the Kosei/stock wheel Azenis combo.



And obligatory stockers with RE010's when the car had less than 5k miles on it and when those wheels still looked new and pretty.

So, you're a looks guy. No big deal, and you're not crazy for liking something that you like or something different.

To each his own.


And the rim is just the outside edge, they are wheels.
