Default Rota Slipstreams

Im looking at some white slipstrams for my 94 integra. Anybody have any suggestions on what size rim and width would be best with a drop. 15" / 16". by 6.5" / 7"?

If any body has some photos to post of this set up it would help me make up my mind. thanks

15 or 16 is a personal choice. I'm running 16s and I think they look good with my lowering.

6.5 or 7 should be decided by looking at the recommended wheel width for the tires you intend to use. A wider wheel is heavier. Also, a wide or narrow tire can look different on different wheel widths, if you care how they look. I'm running Toyo Proxes 4 205/45-16 on 16x7s.

That said, this probably belongs in the appearance forum, and would probably get more replies there.

What kind of suspension are you running or planning to run with these wheels?

From an aesthetic point of view, wheel size is definitely a personal choice dependent on what you like. Try searching through the A/C for examples of 15's and 16's; there should be plenty.
What you could also consider are the costs of each. 15's will not only be cheaper for the wheel, but also the tires. Not to mention the abundance of 195/55/15 and 205/50/15 tires available.
