hey guys!
which rims are better suited for a EG HATCH??
16"/7" or 17"/7"???????????
is there any disadvantage of haivng 17s???
wat will my car like better?
heyy.. i had 15z and went for 17z.
i rekon 17z look hot.. but otherz prob wont like it..
16 is prob a good size to keep a bit of performance..
coz my car is sorta laggin a lil now havn 17"
yeh exactly 17s look abit big also i think!
16s still not 2 big but look big..if that makes sense!!
Yeahh... well i had 15z b4.. i thought.. y pay soo much just for 1 inch bigger..
so i went 17...
soo up 2 u?
go the 17's bro, they'll look tight on ur civic!
how big are the rimz u hav now??
i rekon go the 17
16" =)
the bigger the rim, the more rotational mass, the less accelleration.
-2ds
16" it u wanna go track or something... 17" if u wanna be a rice rider =]
15s for track
16's is a happy medium...but a EG dumped on 15's or even 14's still looks HOT :)
thanx fella's
i recken i will go for the 16s i had 17s before and they looked a little too big i recken!!
but mostly the 16s coz 17s slow my car down too much....and the 16s are cheaper and the 16s probs look better than the 17s.
if any1 has an eg hatch with 16s on it can they pm me plz coz i wanna check some pics
thanx again.
As most of us here are [acronym:c9b09c44b4="Japanese Domestic Market"]JDM[/acronym:c9b09c44b4] nuts :P most will say 16s me being one of them :D
how much are you looking at spending?? try getting some light weight 16s like mugen or buddy club rims maybe look for some second hand ones as those rims are quite pricy brand new.
Pffft as if 14s ben! :P
I'd go 16 for a comprimise of looks/performance
for me i tink 16s better cos tyres cheaper
i reckon 16s r they way to go..lol..theyre cheaper! and yes it is a good balance between performance/looks..
i hav 1 question tho, dus increasing the tyre profile give you better acceleration or worser acceleration? im currently on 16" with 45 profile..
(was thinkin of increasing it to 50)
err..it's 45 profile ;)
Raff...go 16s moit! :)
oh yeah get 15s man, :lol:Quote:

I have no problems with them, and they grip better around corners at high speeds.
But seeing as your VTi is peformance based then maybe you should scope some lighter 16's.

yer true there pete!

15s
16s
get a set of gold or white 15's, semi slick tyres, would look mad... slam it down with sum superlows.... or coilovers. performance and looks,,, best of both worlds
i know where u can get a mad set of gold 15's
I'm looking forward to seeing the white 16s :D I love white rims!!
Grrrrrrrrr.... my Jedi mind trick didn't work just saying "15s" :oops:
K it goes more along the lines of looks are still acheivable, range of quality tyres and also the actual cost of these tyres.
16s for some reason are quite expensive on tyres..... dare I say that 17s are of quite similar price to 16s..... well at least from what I have seen...... my guess is that 16s are less common than 15s and 17s........ people tend to go straight to 17s these days.
So yer mainly the price of tyres and the actual types of tyres that you can get in 15s are very broad.
Oh thats what that was I thought you were just being a post whore :lol:Quote:

17" i recken r too big for the lil civ
