Do you guys think it would be a waste of money by replacing my stock wheels with another set of 16's that look better and are lighter. Is the straight-line performance difference so little that it would be worth sacrificing to get 17's for better looks?

 

I'm a fairly conservative guy and I've been shopping for wheels. I would upgrade to 17's. The cost margin is minimal but the esthetics would greatly improve.

Besides...I think it's a law isn't it? You must get larger rims if you're going aftermarket/custom.

 

well if you are thinking of performance then you go with 16s cuz they are lighter but if you want looks then go with 18s not 17s

 

honestly, it's not really even worth it on our cars, go w/ some light weight 18's. I still lost time off my stock times w/ my light weight 18" wheels

 

When I get back to the states (in about 3 months), I think I'm going to go with 17's. After I drop my car first.

I know our cars are not made for performance but I don't want to hurt my performance too much. I have a big family and most of my cousins are into the import scene and I don't want any of them embarrassing me too bad.

 

hahah dont worry about the rest of your family. i got a lot of relatives and they got pretty nice cars too

 

shit dude, everyone in my family has 12 second and lower cars, i don't care what they think. Then again i do have a sweet custom other then the ac

 

If you are planning on making your cl a fast car then go with 16's, but anything else go with 17's or 18's.

 

the cl is not a fast car at all, so I would just go for looks and pimp out the car

 

19s baby

 

waste of money .. 18's nothin less than legal

 

if u want some attention.. go with 18's if u want a slightly quicker, stealthier -16's

 

less then legal??


those 19's look fucking HOT!

 

yea just stick wit the 18 n up....dont put no 16s on it ur car isnt a lil civic....

 

as in 18 being the legal age? If your rims are 21 and up you can say you're rims are old enough to drink.

 

18s at LEAST
