Please don't waste you money on cheap 17" rims to make your car look 'good'. Find some lightweight 15s or 16s and you'll thank yourself afterwards.

Nothing wrong with 17s, but if you just get some cheapo stunna rims it won't look nice, it will look cheap.

Depends on what car you drive? Im assuming a prelude since you posted here. Also what color is your car. And yes price range would help.

You assume he has a Civic because he's in the Prelude forum?

I'm pretty sure he has a Prelude.

I have some Enkei's from a few years ago I'm not sure what model they are but they came on my car and they look amazings...They are 17's though and even though I love the way they look they are only like 12 pounds lighter than the stock wheels. Anyway, if I were you I would get some 16" wheels that are as light as the roads in your area will allow...You'll thank yourself for the unsprung weight later.

5Zigen FN01R-Cs are pretty swell. these are my daily wheels. in a 17x7 they're only 16 lbs each and clean. I'm sure you can get em for well under 200 a piece. I paid just under 800 for mine back in '06 when they were fresh on the market.
