steven10 · 10-09-2005

Does anyone have pics of there civic on the 15 spoke special edition wheels? i wanted to see some pics of the civic dropped with these wheels... also... when i change my tires.. what tire size would u recommend?.. i thought i would go with thinner tires for these 15 spoke rims... ALSO OPINIONS wanted on these rims.. what do U think of the Speciall edition rims...

i think they look good.. just too small =/.. if they were 16s or 17s XD

a friend of mine has them on his Vic.... the SE wheels are pretty much the same as the 1.7EL wheels. The wheels do look classy, but 16" are better

IMO they dont look good, if they were 16s they would be perfect, but 15 is too small.

steven10 · 10-10-2005

thats what i thought too.. 16s... PERFECT! ahha but i was hoping if I got thinner tires it would make a difference... WOULD IT?

No, it wouldn't. In 15's you wanna kind of stay at 50 series tire. And at 16's, a 45 series tire. Those 15' Special Edition rims don't look that great IMO.

steven10 · 10-10-2005

so when i change my tires... what size should i get?... i saw some other people on here getting 215? and 205... which one would make a 15" rim look bigger maybe... or just which ones better for it (lookwise)... ALSO... do u guys think these Special edition rims look better than the stock 5 spoke 2004 rims?

5 spokes by far. i have them, so i might be biased, but i think the 04-05 ex 5 spokes, some older integra wheels, 99-00 si wheels and the 02-03 si wheels are the best looking honda oem wheels ever.

steven10 · 10-10-2005

thanks every1! MORE OPINIONS wanted please

mugenman · 10-10-2005

^ yup they are. outta the older teggy wheels i like the gsr blades

ragingSPAM · 10-10-2005

i do beleive that the stock tire size is 195/60R/15 and if you get new tires you should stick with stock size unless u get new rims...its bad cuz you screw up your gear ratios, and you speedo gets off calibration

steven10 · 10-10-2005

o i c i c... damn... what size tires do the people who have the SI rims go with?... looks pretty good... im kinda stuck... should i keep my SE rims?.. or get the 5 spoke 04 stocks?... i plan to drop in the future and i WAS gonna change my tires.. cuz i saw some nice ones but i dunno after hearing what the member above said

bp_22ca · 10-10-2005

I really like the 5 spoke rims on my 2004 EX/Canadian Si, they're 15's though... wish they were 16's

No, not biased, i have the 15 spoke alloys i got with my 05 ex se. a lotta people ask if they are stock or aftermarket. even though i own the 15 spoke ones i like the 5 bar ones. id post a pict of them on my vic, but right now i have the enkei rims on it. BTW ill trade the 15 spoke rims for the 5 bar?? any takers?

steven10 · 10-11-2005

damn nice... those r HFP rims? never seen em b4.... anyways... nobody has pics of there car on the 15 spokes?

steven10 · 10-11-2005

so yeah... main question now... should i stay wit the 15 spokes? .... or trade a friend for the 5 spokes?

permalink · 10-12-2005

this is the 15 spoke off the 04+ el

jakejham · 10-12-2005
