Default Gonna buy C8's for hatch but what size is best? 15 or 16?

The topic pretty much says it all. I've had the 15s on my crx but I am wondering if 16s would work on my 94 Si hatch.

Any experience with 16 or 15?

Thanks, I am going to order later today so I'd appreciate quick ideas!

according to http://www.machiii.net/machiii/html/wheels/Rota_C8.html :

Wheel weight: 15"-12lbs, 16"-16lbs

For a 5th gen hatch, 15" wheels fit the best

I weighed my 15" C8's on my ups digital scale I have here at work and it said 12.28 lbs. I think the 15" is the way to go. btw what color is the hatch?

I use to have 16's on my hatch... When I bought my C8's I went back down to 15s no complaints here.

Thanks for the replies guys. I orderd some 15s in bronze. The exact same damn wheels as I had before. boring. Oh well. I like em.
