not bad but how much???
I paid JDM GM16's with tires around $1,200.
I would think OEM Acura rims with tire will cost more then a set of volks?

The big question is how does 17's feel?
I felt lot stable at high speed with 16s and not much drawback in weight.

I'd stick with stock or if you want bigger rims, go with 16's. If you really want 17's, I suggest you drop the car an inch or so, or it'll look hideous...like the car in the pic

Re: (P55100)

Not too bad, but youre likely slower.

16 is as large as Id go on an ITR and even then, thatd be for street only. My $.02.

Re: Type R with 17's (SurferX)

The larger wheel will make the ride bouncy if street driving because of the small sidewall. When I went to 215/45/16 I didn't like driving them on the street. That's another reason I went back to 15's.
