Im looking to purchase some wheels but not sure on what size.I want to get 18s but if i can get away with a 17" wheel that makes it look as if they were 18s" id get them.If you have 17" wheels post up

 

take my word and get 18"s. i was looking into buying rims for like 6months before i bought them and i went with the 18's it rides nice and the tsx is too big for 17's. just my opinion.

 

keep this in mind:

no dipped spokes.
no lips.

the way to make your rims look bigger than they are is to follow
the above rules.

for the TSX, you see tons of rims being chosen with both.

dipped spokes are where the spokes will dip in before the edge
of the rim.
a lip is, well, a lip... I'm sure you know what that is.

you want only FULL FACED rims where the spokes go all the way
out to the edge of the rim and not dip in, and the rim cannot have
any sort of lip at all on it.

that's the way to make the rims look bigger than they are.
or at least the correct size.

the reason rims look too small is one of the above issues.

 

17"
