Opinions Wanted

Well, it's time to start making the EP my own. First order of business is wheels and tires. I could keep the current tires if I found a set of 17's that I liked. I honestly prefer the looks of 16's on the EP. I have to keep spending under $1k so I can still sleep in bed, and not on the couch. Ideally I'd like to keep it around $700.

So here goes. My current considerations are:

Gold Centered XXR 16x8 +15mm




Silver Centered XXR 16x8 +15mm


Buddy Club P1 (white with red lip)



Buddy Club P1's

Konig Helium (bronze)

These are actually VR's

Konig Helium

Other?

Here's my hooptie. Lets hear it

I vote for the Buddy Club P1s.

The first wheels are nice, but they need a lip to work & Hondas just don't do lips without a lot of unnecessary effort.

I like CE28n's a lot & by extension, the look of the the Konigs. Knockoffs bother me, though.

Do you think the 17's are too big? I can afford the P1's alone in 17's and reuse my current tires (which are brand new).

I really like the white on white. I think white is the only color wheel that I haven't owned. Polished being the worst to take care of, I imagine white isn't too far behind.

Thank you for your opinion.

I ran 15s/16s/ & 17s on my EP. In my opinion, 16s look the best, 15s felt the best, & 17s were ok.

I don't have any fundamental issue with 17s, I just think the OEM brakes look silly beneath them.

I've not run white wheels, but I imagine it would be an absolute bitch to keep clean. Brake dust + road grime = disaster.

I hate cleaning wheels......thus I run black 5zigens...........

I had the Konigs and liked them. Good strong, relatively light and reasonably priced.
