ive got 17inch gunmetal wheels on my crx, have been pulled over many times for RBTs and they looked at the wheels and said nothing. They are obviously bigger than stock but no word was ever said about them.
Maybe cos the rest of the car looks fairly stock - don't know. But yes - Chrome and Bodykits attract attention right away. Im still going to find out how my car goes after the kit is on.
In my opinion get some 17s but keep them like a normal colour - not chrome... closest thing to Chrome is Shadow Chrome - I don't think they are as eye catchy as full chrome.
evryone get chome 17's, so then ull all be slowed down and i can fly past with my 15's :)
LOL u'll still b slower then me even if i had 18's :P
yea.. i saw taht thing u have under ur bonnetQuote:

never had a girl cop defect me, but tell her its my bday party soon and i would love her to come hand cuff me LOL as for the mod's ring the RTA and they can send u out info on what u can do legally to your car and what requires a engineers certificate also they can send u out info on the local engineer's. You will be suprised, I used to have 18 inch wheels on my old ls integra and was defected for them. The reason being they where bigger then one inch in diameter, This is false! You are allowed (according to the rta print out i recieved) to have one inch or two cant rember hehehe bigger wheel and tyre combo, not just rim size as i was told by Mr no it all cop. So when i measured my stock wheel and tyre diameter and compared it to my 18 inch wheel with 30 series profile it was Exactly the same :) Thats right Untouchable .....Quote:

If u buy a house u can renovate it so why cant u do it to your car. dont tell me im doing anything wrong. I dont drive like a madman and bang down other road users. I just like to make my car look nice.Quote:
