personally, i think 17's make the car to slow (even if they are light) and 15's don't look very aesthetically pleasing. i'd go with the lightest 16's you can find with the nicest tires you can afford.

18s all the way. Not for performance, but definitely for looks.

IMHO, a car that looks good is a car that looks like it performs well. Your car looks clean, but wheels that big just look pointless to me.

You would have to swap to a 4x100 bolt circle for that, which would be retardated.

I got these 15s because of their performance (8.8lbs), but they do actually look pretty good too.



Yes, I do also realize that I still have a Bondo spot on my car.

Yeah those are sweet. Matter of fact, there's a guy around here selling a set of those in white.

i uses to have 17" racing hard C2's and loved it, but i think 16's would be perfect for a prelude.
