Personally I like Sprint Hart, Watanabes and MR5's. Rims are quite a personal thing for an enthusiast though IMO.

Good idea mate, stick to something either 6" or 6.5" wide, with offset 35+ or up to 45+. Just to avoid issues with scraping guards. My experience is that 15x7 + 35 scrubs my guards on my CRX and 17x7 + 40 scrubs guards on my Civic.


Otherwise I don't mind 949Racing 6UL but I think they need to be at least 16" otherwise they look a little weak, kinda 'spindely' coz the spokes are thin and the diameter of the rim isn't big enough to give it that long-spoke finesse. Personally I prefer shorter, thicker spokes like the MR5 or the Motegi FF6.


Google 'Motegi FF6' mate, you might like them.

hey man thanks not really my style and im more into the 15's and maybe 14's

i was thinking of the sport maxes with low profile tyres to clear the guard a bit if not then the axis old school coz its +25 offset whilst the sport maxes are +15 from JDM yard. i like the 6ULS alot but dam the rims are like the more then the price of sportmaxes rim and tyre combo. and the mugen the seem alright and price seems alright on second hand ones. watanabes i lovebut hard to find in 15's and 14's with 4x100 stud pattern and if there is pretty pricey lol, and the sprint harts and equip 03 i havnt seen much around i like the equip 03 seems simular to the axis old skool
