Go for the first one.
I would have stayed at 18" larger don't look any good.

I could probably photochop them on a Mazda 6 if you want to get just a general idea of whta they'd look like. What i'd do though is since you know that friend, have him stick one on your car and see how it fits, 18", 19" and 20".

Many cars are limited more by width than height. For example my sentra comes stock with 13" wheels and i know ppl who have 19" wheels on this compact car. They have to get 7" wide though because 7.5" will rub the wheel well. In some cases they have to shave or modify the plastic wheel well liner to make them fit (they have a 2" drop though).

The only way your gonna find out is to try it but with 20" wheels that some small rubber on there and lots of heavy moving mass. I'd like to see what they look like though so take pics if you throw some on :)

First are nicest. Will give you a little more coplex style in it.

I'm going simple with mine.

Not getting them from there but getting the 19" in a 7.5 width. Going to look very simple while still looking awesome.

Just got these 17" rims for my car a couple of days ago.

Here's a closer look:

WhoDiddy · 12-14-2002, 07:36 PM

nice rims XTerm. i'm a probably cop the 1st ones on this thread. the rims i'm a get will be the Mondera Spyders in 18's. if i got 19's or 20's it would be in 19X7.5, 19x8 or 20x7.5. but 18's is str8 on this car, cause i wanna keep it sporty.

has anyone found any 20x7.5?
