Go with some 95 GSR's or some 99 si's. I know everyone has them, but for 300 with tires you cant go wrong. Put that extra money you save into your engine so you can haul a$$ more. Can't tell what rims someone has when they are speeding past you.

OE wheels do look good on an eg. But Rotas look good on everything.

rims and tires were like 1250.. kinda pricey.. wrapping them nitto neogen tires.

Did you forget a decimal point in that price? For 1250 you could pick up a set of used (real) TE37s

well wheels are like 600.. then i got tires and thats almost 500 more for nitto neogen's. not 1250 for just the wheels..
i also heard 16 tires are more expensive because not many brands make tires in 16s, they make them in 15 and 17s.

buy some SSR type Cs and roll without tires for the same price. They're sturdy, they'll hold up.
