Default 93-95 civic wheel pic request...

Arright, can anybody with a 93-95 civic especially coupes please post pictures of your car and your wheel size? I'm trying to decide on a wheel size. I heard 15's were the best for performance but also heard that they look like #$% on coupes. Everyone says that 17's look the best on coupes. Any suggestions about wheel size? Also if you can, besides wheel size, can you tell me what size drop if your car is lowered? As far as wheels, I'm pretty much set on the ricochet wheels by rs limited. These:

Also, does anyone remember the link to that database webpage of 93-95 civic coupe pictures?

I don't think 15s look bad on a coupe. Here are a few reasons to get smaller wheels. These are some of the reasons i bought 15s.

1. Lighter
2. Cost less
3. Cheaper tires
4. Alot of tire selection

Those are just a few.

Is it true that 15s perform the best out of all the other tire sizes on civic coupes?
