Which ones you going for then?
Looks like a costly picture.

Did you see the blue one in the link above? Those are the 18's, don't think they look smaller than that.

Still quite undecided... Covering the rear half of the car with my hand does make them all look miles better. Penta ones might be the best (at least safest) bet, but I still think the colour will clash if they're too dark.

Not exactly what I'm looking for. Think they would look better while drifting through the city with the under body neons on.

Also, I suspect that changing them from 20's to 17's and raising the car about 800 mm to standard height will change the look dramatically.

the problem isn't the wheels


EDIT - 17" Electra, Force 10 or those last Civic option ones.

I call bullshit over the dramatic fuel ecconomy increase comment.

The car has quite sharp angles so want a quite aggressive looking wheel, all the aftermarket ones look cheap and the optional extra's dont do the car justice.

Looks like a cut and shut of 2 cars, a nice car at the front and a horrible one at the back

To answer the question though, the last ones, by far.

All I can say, regarding the tyre profile, is try it for your self. Or read up on it. There really is no doubt, that tyre profile affects comfort and economy. Tyre quality plays in as well, though.

Regarding the 'aggressive' wheels, I'm open to suggestions, but anything drift or race spec will not be considered. I know the Honda crew has a certain style of wheel they favour, but this isn't for me at all.

If the car was getting slammed with a Mugen bodykit, then this type of wheel would look great. But it will not, so they won't.

To be honest, it looks more like a cut and shut of a car and a boat.
