the radious in hyperblack or gunmetal doesnt look nice?..im sorta leaning away from just silver since my car came with them stock ones...just not a big fan plus my color scheme for the exterior of my car would be silver and black..ish....the lip and hood are already cf so i was aiming towards gunmetal or hyperblack...ya know what im saying?

out of da list u gave me.. i'd go 4 da tz-10's.. just like dat tuner look ya know but in terms of size it really depends on if weight of rims has an issue with u... i got 17's myself but they're only 18 lbs each... relatively lightweight compared to most 17's.

18" Exel - Radius in Hyperblack

The 6th gen body is too big for 17's.

I have a set of 18 RacingHart C2 Evo's with the lip extension, it extended 2 1/4" wider for the sweeter look. its a brand *****-f**spankin' new set without tires and it's never been mounted, you can come by and see them for yourself. can't keep them have to sacrifice them due anticipated fatherhood role. so let me know if your interested, and save a lot of money for the real deal, rather then drive around with "imitations" and then having later to decide on getting tinted windows, because you think everybody is recognizing and laughing at you for cheap, and if your rims are fake, what else can be. well good luck..., "i'm going to be a DAD!!!....wooooohhooooooo!!!

I say go for the radius in silver man, those would look ILL! If you have the cash go for the 18's, I got 17's and I wish that I had gone bigger. 18'' Radius in silver = pimp ride +
