    Re: oem wheel choice

    The Insight wheels you posted look exactly like the Fit wheels you liked. That's why I asked. Don't give any attitude to people around here, it's not needed.

    I'm not giving any attitude. Other peoples' ignorance isn't my fault.

    Uh, different thing. Vanilla couldn't tell the difference between an Insight and a Fit. I'll add labels so people don't have so many problems.

    Whatever, I'm not hating. Next time I'll put pictures with labels. Lesson learned.

    Yeah, there are slight differences, but when going through a thread like this where the author is too lazy to post pictures but wants us to search for the wheels to give him an opinion, I'm just going to scroll through quickly.

    Get some circle track steelies and rock that style.

    Re: oem wheel choice

    Whatever you end up doing, I'd stay away from 14". I just bought new tires for my SE-i stock wheels, and the tire choices weren't all that great. Ended up with Michelin Pilot Exalto's, but I wish I would have had more alternatives.

    If you're going with a modded suspension, bear in mind that the larger the wheel diameter, the smaller the tire sidewall. Smaller sidewalls mean less compliance, so a very large wheel together with a drop will reduce the ride quality. Depending on where you live, bad roads with a very stiff suspension can make driving unpleasant. I live in suburban CT, so I'm good with my 1" drop + revalved Bilsteins. But drive into NYC with its shitty roads (overlapping patches, potholes, poorly done transitions), and it's a whole other story. My wife makes me take her car when we go in.

    Re: oem wheel choice

    Go steelies! lol.. im actually surprised they're gettin so many votes.
    I'd so go for steelies with those contour caps, and the H logos.. though, i only have the H logos.
    i'm prety sure we've all seen enough pictures of my car to know what they look like...

    The BMW rims look prety coiol, but they're bmw ... so why wouldya put em on a honda? thats just my opinion, though. Otherwise they'd probabily look prety nice on a 3gee sedan

    13's wont fit an 88-89, the front rotors are too big.
