Default Another rim advice for ek hatch

Hello..I just want some feedback on what you guys think of ep3 type r rims on a ek hatch? 7x17 I love the look but something is telling me to big and maybe less performance? If anybody has any pics please post em. Thank you in advance.

I assume you're referring to a '97-00 Civic and you would put 205/40-17 tires on it.

Too big? Looks are a matter of personal taste. (I happen to think 17" looks a bit too big for your car, but your taste may be different from mine.)

Performance? That depends mostly on what make/model tires you put on. There are some excellent tires available in that size.

You don't mention ride comfort, but if that's important to you, you might be better off with 16" wheels (and 205/45-16 or 215/45-16 tires).
