Do you think it would look okay? The car colour is dark blue.

To small for CD5 imo being 15"

Even 16" looks to small unless you have reasonable sized rubber on it + slamage.

17" & 18" look best on CD5's imo.

17" is the best choice for CD5. 18" looks kinda big. I think for reference the JTCC PIAA CD5 used 17" wheel whereas the JTCC JACCS CD5 used 18" wheel.

But to each their own. I like that wheel actually but yeah like Jarkz said it was kinda small.

u should find pics of eclipsor's CB accord with 15" JDM DC2R rims. it looks hot!

He is slammed so that may help.

edit, the CD seems smaller in body size so it will look ok.

That is because the tyre is not low profile. If you put 40 or 35 profile tyre, it will look kinda small.

I think the one in the picture is around 55.

Are you referring to the tyres on the CB? or the wheel I posted?

guys, the post i made had no reference to the tyre profile. take the picture for what it is. an accord, with JDM DC2R rims.

Thanks for the picture :) I think they'll look okay on my CD5 (same colour as the CB)...after I've lowered it and get the right profile tyres to match.

Yeah I refer to the CB Accord. Yeah I agree the wheel looks great if anyone refers back to my previous post. I just said it was kind of small if coupled with low profile tyre with big CD5 wheel arch (that's the reason I made reference to tyre profile). But as I said in my previous post "to each their own".

Once again the wheel looks great (I like it) but too small or too big you gotta figure that out (maybe I have problem with my eyes)

;)

Here's a preview of how she'll look minus the white paint. (but there 16").

Thanks for the pics guys! I'm inspired now. I picked up the rims yesterday but they may need a respray...I need to pick up a lip kit too :D hopefully someone has some for sale on here.
