rims - 15?

i want to start off by saying that yes, i did a search and i didn't find a good answer to my question [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG] . I want to get some new rims and tires but I don't want to change the car - lower it or anything. also, some of the roads around my place are not that good. are 15" tires and rims the way to go? Or are 16's ok?

Thanks.

16 would be good cause you will be using profile tire.

15's are cool..they are your typical street setup tires and wheels..a 15 wheel with 205/50-15.
Don't get 16's though, if you are going to plus size, tests show that the best way to go, is a plus two - or to
go to a 17" wheel and tire setup.....If you get 16's, you will wish you had gotten 17's....JMO

i'm like you i didn't want to screw around with my cars suspension cause it costs way too much and my dealer is a bitch. i have the Si rims cause they came with my car (canada) so i just left them cause they look good...it really pisses me off how much $$ it is to lower your car properly...first you gotta buy the damn springs then you probably will have to buy a f^$cking camber kit...then you have to buy new F$%cking shocks...pisses me off...the big companies charge a lot cause they know people who care about their car being lower will be willing to pay their life's savings to do it..[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG]
