Default 97 Civic Rims

heres my DD, sick of looking at the hubcaps, and seeing as how i drive it alot (240 in the shop) i wanna throw some rims on there. i found all these for about 400 dollars, so what goes best with my car? opinions/critisim NEEDED!

Im planning on throwing on either the Si rims, the LS Meshes, or a set of Fat Fives and dropping it. after that its not gonna see a whole lot more attention as the 240 is taking up most of my budget.

400 bucks is a lot unless all those wheels are brand new with good tires

I would NOT trust replica wheels, i've heard nightmares about some of them. The Si's are still available at Honda, they were used on the 7th gen EX's as optional alloys.

invest in some suspension first, man.

that car will look fine on hubcaps when it's lowered, more so than stock height with rims. plus you'll enjoy the drive so much more.
