15" MR5s look loads better than those do, IMO. Not a lot of Civics can pull off 17" wheels, and that's a case in point.

Any car can pull off with bigger wheels then 15"s casing point and I will let you guess what size rims they are on either of them.

I personally never liked the looks of the MR5 and the bigger version still does not look any better IMO.

King Motorsports has some stuff, also this site has alot of mugen wheels.

And Mugen parts are so expensive because they are legit parts. Straight from Japan. Honda's aftermarket affiliate. Thats why parts are expensive, lots of R&D.

Once again, thanks to all for your feedback... I trying to make a decision on my next set... you all have helped me decide... BTW... some of you are a little too dramatic, I can understand if you don't like the rims... that's fine, but they're just 17's.... some of you act as if they're 22's... come on, really...??? CHILAX lol
