15's you can super slam, 16 looks overall clean, depends on what your going for! (i did not vote, i like them both)

Ya im just tryign to decide. I wont be lowering my car at all. I just came from a 92 hatch with 15s. Figured since the coupe was a tad bigger, I should get 16s

16"s...

215/45/16 wider tire...better grip.

Just have a stiff suspension.

If you're not lowering the car, don't put aftermarket wheels on it. Especially 16s, it'll look like it has 8x more wheel gap than it does.

Your a moron. You don't have to lower your car to be allowed to drive with wheels. What about stock sis? Those have 15 inch WHEELS instead of steelies. They dont look bad. Think about what your saying before you type it; save yourself the embaressment.

Learn to ******* read. I didn't say you have to rock steelies, I said aftermarket wheels tend to visually raise the car. FACT. Honestly, how on earth would you get the impression that ANYONE thinks all cars have steelies unless they're lowered. I dunno what you've got stuck up your ***, but my post wasn't rude at all and didn't warrant your jackass response.

By the way, you should consider learning to spell what you're writing before you type it; save yourself the embarrassment. Then, of course, we have the most ironic statement ever: "Your a moron." Do you need more than a couple decades to pick up on the differences between your and you're?

Get the **** off this board if all you're here for is to put words in people mouths and get butthurt about it.
