I think they look pretty good, but I would rather rock 16's.

Not at all. Hell, go for the 18s! 16s would be wayy to small.

back on topic

I think 17s are perfect for 4 doors, 18s is overkill, and 15s 16s are if your after performance (which in your case are not)

IMO, 17's look good if you have a kit. If you just have the stock bumper or a small lip, 16's look perfect.

im not really INTO performance anymore due to some past history with my other cars. Im probably gonna rock the 17's because i just wanna cruise now. no more racing for me. but i plan on doing the 98 conversion up in the front with the ITR lip. and the rear bumper with the acura optional add on lip. as for the sides....i dunno what skirts to get. i pretty much just want the stock sides to be a little fatter and lower. any ideas?

if your just gonna cruise then 17's are fine. 18's are too big.
