3 wheel styles = no decision

I am thinking about getting new wheels and probably will stay with 17" because I just bought 2 new tires a month ago. Interested in hearing your thoughts


American Racing Villian



ASA AR1



Sport Edition SE-14

I honestly wouldn't go for any. I would do 18's or 19's with a good stance.

keep the stock wheels until you need to change out your tires again.

^Agreed...17" aftermarket would look bad. I would wait, but when you can, get the ASA AR1's, I really like those.

OEM looks way better than any of the choices.

i agree keep the stockies, unless you dont have stock wheels and the ones you do have look ugly. if i spent money on aftermarket they would either be 18" or 19", not 17"....unless i was picking up a winter setup. i would keep what you got and spent the money on upgraded suspension.

Interesting comments. Seems like everyone is in agreement that I should not go with 17" I really would like to go with 18" and actually played with the idea of getting them and tires and keeping the stock wheels for the winter months. I feel that 19" would be a problem because of the small sidewalls and road conditions. What is really interesting is that initial choices would be the 5 spoke American Racing followed by the multi spoke Sport Edition and 2 people stated the ASA wheels would be the way to go and no one suggested the other 2.
