Can't decide between......

[JDM_FB6]

I've never had to deal with wheel fitment before since I used to always run 15x7 on my previous civics, integra etc
Now that I have a 2012 cbp Sedan Si, I can't decide if I should go 17x9 + 20 or 18x8.5 +30?
im not looking to roll my fenders or do any bodymodifications. I don't want to be slammed but a good stance would be nice.
I will be lowered on D2 coilovers.

Wheels are xxr968, xxr 522


WHat setup would you pick?......... And why?

Please don't bash my wheel selection, they ain't the best but they look good

I would get the 18x8.5 even though you still may need to roll your fenders unless you run camber. I would get the 522 I prefer concave looking wheels

Seriously? He asked for people not to bash his selection. Please be respectful.

Real wheels or not some of us don't want to spend 3000$+ as long as they roll and we like them we're good to go. Anyways I would personally go 18 17s look so small .

Id go for the XXR 522's. I dig the concavity. I usually dont like 5 spoke wheels at all unless they are OEM (like the RSX's), so the 968's (for me) are out of the question.

I would pick the xxr 522s, I really like the look of them!

Save money? Who said money was a factor in this ? I can afford the "real wheels" I just don't really see the value in paying $3000+ on a set off wheels, that's just me. This is my daily driver not my showpiece or race car.

Nobody said anything about $3k wheels. There are plenty of wheels for $1k or used in good condition. I've had bad experience with rep wheels before so I don't recommend them to others. Anyway the 522 look good. You might need to roll your fenders.

Most wheels enkei sells are 330 a wheel and under for 700 or 600 what quality can you expect?

 

[JDM_FB6]

Thanks for the suggestions everyone, I guess i should just asked what wheels you guys think looks better on a CBP Sedan. Good point ^^^^^

 

[JDM_FB6]

Ill pbly just end up selling the wheels i buy after 4 months, thats usually how it goes for me. Im very indecisive
