Re: Wheel Help!!!

[Brettnyt]

Need help!!!!

Which rims should I get?????

For a black EP...

http://store1.yimg.com/I/speedandstyle_1760_762528

18" Rev Model 2 ($1149)

or.....

18" Nakayama Zoro 10 ($1099)

[cease]

i like the nakayama's

[SI-lent]

i say the rev's but the zoro's look different and unique. i hope this pik of my ep helps.

[chubbychu]

neither...barfo! too big for practical functions. just IMO =oD

[Civicvtec1ps]

zoros looks good in person. i think 18s are way too big on new si. unless you have bodykit.

none of them, get 16's, but if you must have a big rim, go for 17's. and don't go over 7 spokes in the design...just my .02

[Tenacious G]

of these two choices, i'd go with neither. too busy, too big and most likely too heavy for my tastes. but go with what you want. it's your car.

Thanks for the constructive criticizm. I dunno, I just feel like if i get something smaller I will regret it... Havent seen them 18"s in person on an EP.... Anyways, right now I am leaning towards the G-Racing Seki (which is the pic shown above in SI-lent's post.... They are basically the same as the revs) I dunno if I should get 17" or 18" tho! Those 18"s look pretty nice... Oh yeah, my car is gunna be dropped on neuspeed race springs... Eventually i will prolly get a kit too, prolly just lips tho, whether it be Kaminari, Mugen, Type R, or D3, i dunno.... Any input?

It depends on what else you plan on doing. If its a daily driver, and you will be doing some shows, 18's are fine. Definitely heavy if you plan on going to the strip or something. If you plan on even a little auto-x, NO WAY. GO with small and light (OZ Superleggeras). Wheels are like shoes, some people buy them for looks and show, others are for performance and utility. I like both designs--they're actually very similar. Do what feels right.

Thanks alot for that man, that is right on.... I think at this point, i would rather build myself a cool lookin/sounding/lil bit quick car than a speed monster... I could always pick up some 15's with slicks on em if i wanna go to the strip anyways.... I suppose i could eventually turbo, but at that point, wheels wont effect too much... For the time being, i know im not gunna have enough money to go the fastest, so i might atleast go in style... :D

aye Brettnyt that was a photo chop of my ride heres wat it looks like normally. I say watch out with the revs though. tenzo r has the same thing just with a different center cap, g-racing has the same thing just with a differents center cap. keep that in mind and go for wat u want i love my 18's and its perfect.

Thanks for the info man! Aight, G-Racing it is... Should look good with a drop! U got any plans to drop?

[Brettnyt]

Woah, i just realized, look at our avatars.... They are almost from the exact same angle! cool.... :D

[civicSIracer]

damn boy you better lower your ride befor going for the 17s. might as well get the off-road package. i like the revs b4 the others. maybe a duller silver or a bronze. not the chrome.

No Problemo! I get a little of both with 17" daily drivers and 16" wheels for auto-x. The main reason I don't personally have a problem w/ the 18"'s is because JohnnyDanger's car has 18's and they look great. His EP is white w/Gunmetal RacingHarts (maybe??). Post some pics when you get your springs and wheels on--good luck.
