    oem wheel choice

    Okay, I want everyone's truthful opinions. I'm going to put some money into my car, including suspension and making it look as good as possible. One main thing I'm looking into is wheels. I'm definitely staying oem, but I want to know what people think looks best on these cars. Yes, I have read about and understand the effects of different weights and offsets of wheels.

    steelies (14", 15" or 16")
    LX-i sawblades/turbines (14")
    SE-i alloys (14")
    Prelude 4WS 6-spoke blades (*current) (14")
    Prelude Si 5-spoke blades (see Joay's car) (15")
    Fat-Fives (15")
    GSR blades (15")
    LS mesh (15")
    2006-2008 Honda Fit Sport wheels / EP3 Civic wheels (15")
    2010 Honda Insight EX wheels (15")
    Si's (also seen on 2001-2005 Civics) (16")
    2008-present Honda Fit Sport wheels (16")
    HFP Fit wheels (maybe, pricey) (16")
    Mugen Fit wheels (maybe, pricey) (16")

    Re: oem wheel choice

    I have the option (currently) to get a mint set of turbines for like $50 (no tires). I can swap my tires onto the turbines and sell my blades for the same prices or more (rare). I could also fork out a more for the other wheels. The HFP and Mugens would have to wait a little while, haha.

    Did you know the Insight's 15" wheels are 4x100 with a 45mm offset?

    I'm really feeling the GSR blades and HFP wheels. The Si's look great. Insights, no. I wish someone had 2G Fits on a 3G Accord so I could see what it looks like.

    My vote goes to SI's, with the second choice being fat fives.
