just wondering wats the best size rims to get.. i just got my 06 white si last weds.. i have some tein s-techs sittin in my garage waiting to be put on.. i will be ordering my rims next week. i originally planned on getting 18's but then now im having second thoughts and not sure if i should just go with 17's.. i want it lowered but not slammed and i dont want it to rub either.. i know the s-techs are like a 1.4in drop in the front and 1.3 in the back so im not sure how it would look.... can someone that has them or knows help me out plz? i need some opinions! thanks!

 

lets see here,i have the ex coupe,and dropped it about an 1.5" and put on some 16s,but still has some gaps ,so if i were you, i would go with 17s

hey you!

I have 17's on mine, bigger = smaller tires...
smaller tires = bent rims....
bent rims = fixing

etc etc

just stick with 17 and oem size rubber

all aftermarket springs are designed to NOT rub with OEM spec rubber & rollers

 

I agree with X, I have Eibach Sportlines on mine, which was a 1.4 drop all around. I kept the stock wheel and tire size and it drops the cars perfectly, looks real clean. Stick with 17's

 

16's maybe 17's
