what would be the best option 15's or 16's.

:confused:Hi,I own a 93'del sol which i did have 17x7 but now im after a new set of rims.Ive running a set of neo max coilovers,bwr lca's,bwr subframe brace,blox rear sway bar,ultra racing 3 point front strut brace,4 point rear strut brace,bwr frnt & rear camber arms,blox traction bar,so the car is being set up for cornering & twisty rds.The 15's i like,but they look a little small but i like 16s as well.Im going to run the re002's on either.Ive got a buddy club kit and i think the car mite look funny if i have 15s on it.What would be the best option ?

Whatever shivers your timber mate

I have full suspension as well dude .

I'm running 15x8 + 20 .. enkei 92's on RE002 .
performance is fine , more than enough .

if your looking for performance then "looks to small" shouldn't be a factor .

At the moment im looking at the enkei's rpf 1's or the rota gt3 both in 16x7 & in black.Googled del sols with both rims on them & i liked them both,its just the offset maybe 40-32+

No rotas no!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ROTAS

why is this ? so enkei's rpf 1's would be better

Not too long ago i was looking to buy wheels myself so i did a fair bit of research and was atually looking into ROTAS. Basically what i found what that 80% of customers werent satisfied with their product and well the quality isnt that great compared to other alternatives.

Personally id go with enkeis cause i know and trust the brand. Good quality. As for looks that model isnt to my taste, get what ever model you like just stay away from ROTAS.

yes i do like the sprint harts myself,but only on the eg/ek civics they look the goods..

[klr816]

so i think i'll get the enkei's 16x7 in black with the re002 tyres.

Dont settle too quick. Look around, there might be something else better or nicer that youd like. Youll be sitting on them for awhile. Look carefully dont rush

i've been liking/looking at these as well.My mate sam from shift performance sells these.They are made by the same people who make the enkei's wheels there racingtek c64 spin forged wheels.But they only come in 15x7.These are very light.

ps...dont touch rota's unless it's your drift car and you aren't sponsored; you are bound to smash up rims. that is the only exception

Thanks for that nny911,but I ended up buying DTM's 16x8 rims.There about 3 weeks old now & I love them,really finishes the car off. I thought +20 offset would be to much but with a bit of camber front & rear it gives the car awesome stance. With the coilovers, Ultra racing 3 point front & 4 point rear strut braces, BWR LCA's, BWR sub frame brace, Blox racing camber arms front/rear, blox racing front/rear sway bars, blox racing traction bar, 16x8 rims with bridgestone re002 & a few little things, the car is so different to drive in so many ways, especially in the twisties & in just general driving. It rides a bit stiff but coilovers are set just off hard. No chassis flex at all which is hard to stop as its a del sol, even with roof on or off, it cocks it rear left/right wheel around some corners & going in/out of driveways.
