Default Rims 17's or 18's?

alright so im trying to decide... iv been looking at kazera KZ-S 18 inch rims


Or these Kazera KZ-A Dual pcd

Anyone wanna give their input? im having a problem deciding...... the Kz-a's are more of a simple look.. which i like. and the KZ-S's are more fancy.. they do look nice on a teg tho.

If i were you id get 15s or 16s, because those are kinda big for integras, but if I had to choose, Id get the black 17s, the second rims

thanks... the thing is im getting low profile tires.. and i want some nice big rims.. iv seen 16 inch black rims like those kazeras its nice but not really big enough for me.... and he also has thicker tires on them so i mean if i get low profile tires on 16's itl make it all look small

a lot of ppl on here are going to tell you to get 15's or 16's. But personally if u are going for looks get 17's. 18's are too big for the car

18's are waaaaaaaaayyy to big for a teg. I had 17's on my teg for ahwile and it looks real good with a 2-2.5" drop, I switched to 16 cuz the harsh ride and cost of tires, and less weight, also I was sick of being called a ricer. In the end its up to you, but I say 17 if your ballin and dont care about the ride, 16 if you want function over form.

Go with the second rim in 16x7 with a 205/45/16 tire.

the first set of wheels is 5-lug.. make sure you know that you're 4x100.. and personally i like stock 15'' wheels such as webs, si's, blades ect.. or if your gonna spend money get some lightweight wheels such as rota slipstreams, gt3's ect ect

Your ride quality will be noticeably harsher than with stock suspension/ wheels. Also, ditch the altezzas.

15in and 16 in rims look ******* stupid..... the wheels are all tiny looking with the overall look of the rest of the car....


get the 17s.

take it from me ive had from 15-18in rims.
18s look great but they rub too much... and thats at stock height...... 17s dont rub and they still look pretty good. just drop it about 1.5-2 inches after you get the 17s and it will look great.

and dont go with the rest of the band wagon. expletive 15 and 16 inch rims...

everyone wants their car to have quick acceleration as if they are racing their car all the time... yet they still use it as a daily driver.... iduno i would only have 15 or 16 in rims if i had a car just for racing. or if my car saw the track occasionally i would have a set ready or even stealies expletive it! doesnt need to be rims at the track.

but out on the street i like my car to look nice.
i dont like it too look unproportionate. and i like it to flow well.

please get some stock tail lights, and spending $1000 on suspension would be pretty pointless if your just getting ricey stuff like 18" chrome rims, w/ the chrome altezza's to match.. i mean not pointless but, embarassing for the tein brand.

first of all 15" rims are better for your honda then big *** clunker rims.. there is probably a reason that all the midsize coupes came w/ 14-15" rims stock hmm? honda's not dumb, people that buy big *** rims ARE.
