I must admit that they look really good! And they are really light, good for performance!

Would you choose those over the Rota slipstreams?

I would chose them over the Rotas, I think they look better, seem to be a bit lighter......

and can you get the Rotas in 7x17? Had a look at a Webpage and it said only ?x15 and ?x16...

I need at least 7x17 to fit on my car...so I would go for the Centerlines

What about size? Is 17" the biggest I could put underneath my car without rubbing? I plan on lowering it and I heard it would rub pretty bad with 18's if i lowered it.

Unless you enter car shows, there is absolutely no reason to put anything bigger than a 17" wheel on the new RSX/Civic.

Even though the Centerline wheel is light, you're still putting a lot of mass a greater distance from the center of the wheel, which will absolutely kill your acceleration (and make you pay a big $$ for 18" or 19" tires).

The smaller and lighter the wheel, the faster the car is going to be. 17" is a decent compromise, although I still prefer a nice light 16" wheel on the new RSX/Civic.

The Rims are sweet a little to much llike the Audi S4 rims with a lip but very nice.. As for what size you want it all depends on what you plane to do with the car. I seen a DC5 on 19's doing high 13's on the 1/4 mile (on botle)
18 are a good size if you not plaining on going racing all the time. You can go with some 16 or 17 with some nice beafy (sleeper) drag radials.. It all depends on what you plans are for the car. Hey if you got the cash buy a set of 18's for the street and pair of used 16 for the track..

Wouldnt the stock 15's be better for the track than the 16's?

I dont think 15's will fit in the front because of the front rotor size
