What kind of rims are those? Who makes your wing?;)
15"
16"
17"
18"+
Nice choice with the Prokits. I recommend going with 17's with a 45 series tire for that drop. I've seen those springs with 215/45/17's on our car and it fills the gap pretty well.Originally posted by Miranda
Hi guys and thanks for all your help with my question about springs - I decided on the Eibach Pro Kits for now. I'm getting them installed next week.
Here's the question: what is the best all around size to buy new after market rims in for the Honda Si HB??? I would like to get new rims for the spring. I am thinking 16's... what do you guys think???;)
Also, are you planning to keep the rims on year round or use the stockies for wintertime?
p.s. Nice rims johnnydanger!!!

He has the VIS Mugen Style Carbon Fiber Wing (alot of us have it, including me). Great wing, easy to put on.Originally posted by Miranda

yeah that's a vis wing... the rims are racing hart gt5/nitto neo-gen tires too miranda... btw, i wish you were near here, cause from that avatar, u seem FINE.... ;)
Hands off johnnydanger. Me and fsugatorbait got first dibs. :D
But yeah I like that wing too. And I'm thinkin about eibach sportlines... you'll have to post picture of your ride w/the prokit so I can see if its low enough. :D
Hi Miranda :*
16 inch for better weight and performance. 17 are good too but a bit more for looks i think. i have 17s with 215-45-17 tires. if i did go with 16s i would get 215-50-16 tires. go for a 7 inch wide rim with an offset between 42mm and 45mm!
Nice ride hun!!!;)
ground control with Volk Le-37's
I never got a "hun" for all my help in the other thread. :'(Originally posted by Miranda

I dunno...I had 17's on my 4 Door and after experiencing driving that car on a daily basis through the rough streets of Houston, it's almost like a "been there-done that" type thing. It all depends on the conditions of the roads you drive on the most, how much you are willing to spend, etc etc. But I would take Type X's advice...If you decide to go with 17s and haven't had any before...definitely get a used set first. I'd hate to see you posting a thread about bending some Volks (or other nice rims of the sort) cuz you slammed over a pothole. :'(
For me, if I get rims...they will be 16's though (sad, I know). I just can't handle the torture that my 17's put me through. Though I loved them dearly. :'(
Edit: When I bought new rims for my 4 Door, I bought 15" Rota C8's. I love them, though sometimes I wish I would have went for 16's.

The Original Noob with Boobs
Im my past expierences 17s ride like crap and ROTATIONAL ENERTIA is not your friend...Besides,i think 17 look like some damn dubs on a civic...They give the car a covered wagon look IMHO..Ill stay with some lightweight 15s....Better performance than 17s on and off the roadcourse,and rubbers way cheaper to boot....
