If you're not short on cash, get new rims and lower it. Othawise the stock rims look fine.

For some reason, i prefer plus size OEM wheels (anything 16 and over). A nice lowered look with a stock wheels..makes a perfect sleeper IMO.

Ditto! I could not stand my 15" hub cap steelys with the car lowered. Lasted but 3 days! haha Needs to be a nice looking OEM alloy. Just like the Integra GSR OEM alloys look great when that car is lowered. I would have left mines longer if I had IcrazychrisI's OEMs.

Looks great like that being it's OEM.

No need rims just yet . . . yea they are fricken P.I.M.P on dropped cars, but the stock ones are just fine with a drop. They need more coilovers for our car.
