my favourite wheels are these ones:
i think they're integra ls wheels or something, but it really comes down to personal taste. some wwill like 20" chromes, some will like standard ones.
Lexani Krystals, just kidding. twent fohs. Roll out
No i want something to look nice and bigger size....
Yeah I know. You want something probably lightweight too huh? I'd check out tirerack.com they got some cheaper rims on there.
I'm lookin at the Speedy Lite 6 wheels. I can't upload pics for some reason but you can check em out at wheelsnext.com. Peace

Is it better to get 17's or 18's (they look nice)Originally Posted by 86nlife2go
I have seen both on here. They both look real nice. The biggest deal with the 18's is offset and tire size to make them work the best. You might have to do a search for wheels on the site...

As a rule, bigger rims will be more expensive, heavier, more prone to bending and likely to make for a harsh ride.
On the other hand, they look great, so who cares?

you should go for a 15" or 16"
17" is a pretty big for our cars
check out Rota's and the Tire Rack
15" rims = epic win

id say if your going for looks, get 17s and 2.5" drop.
peace.
yeah if you want light weight and have a decent size get 15s...plus the tires are cheaper than bigger sizes

fifteens with nice thin spokes so they dont look to heavy
5 or seven spokes look best in my opinion
the 3g accords are a well proportioned car , a set of wheels that are to big make the car look small and out of proportion and fat spokes make the look bottom heavy.
go to a shop that has the photoshop type thingee and try diff wheels on virtually before you buy
word ^^
yea like a18a said the acura integra ls rims would look nice they look good on my 2gee i just need a dropyou can seem them in my signature.
thanks mkymonkey
they indeed do look good ^^

Honestly I like the Honda Civic Si rims....(fat 5's), have them powdercoated or just leave them as is and have them static balanced...they would look sweet on a hatch. Just an opinion though.
those are the ones im getting
WWOOWW those are pretty nice hey where can i find those kind???those are the ones im getting
^^ geddy you can bake a pizza in that geez. but back on topic wat color is the car? i dont recomend anything above 16. also something to consider is the larger the rim you get the car will have a harder time accelerating. example i used to have my steelies and i used to be able to burn out in those and then i got the LS mesh and burn outs are a no go. so my launching wasnt that great, got alot of bog.
and now i cannt even burn out if i tried

You won't know what hit you
it also depends on the weight of the rim...but yeah you are right....in 1st gear with my stock rims if i punched the gas it would chirp out...now i cant...cuz of the weight of the rims and wider tires...plus the tires are more sport tires so they are more sticky...you guys will see what im rolling on the next next meet

well i'm working on the set from the geo prism(toyota) heres a link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PP1Jyrx4Z0k
the best i have seen in person is the 15" motegi trak lites on rendon-lxi's car. that looked amazing.
otherwise I like slips and simple/light wheels like that. the 3g can't pull off too crazy of wheels so its good to keep a nice low key clean style on there..
