Yup, I need help on making a rims decision
Blue Civic...White Rims....[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
I want to go with the blue+white look on my car. I think it will look sweeeeet! I am down to three rims in terms of choices now:
1. White Konig Verdicts
OR
2. White Konig Rated Rs
OR
3. White Konig Sub Zeros
I wanna lay them down on some Yokohama Avid H4s in a 215-45-17 size.
Which of these three rims would you choose?

Rep Power: 0 Id go with the Verdicts then the Sub Zero's then the Rated R's. I guess just depends on how much you can get them for if its in your price range. But most definatly imo Verdicts in white are the best looking of the 3, Im getting 17" Tantrums for my civic, post some pics when you finally make a decision.

Rep Power: 0 Just a piece of info... if your just adding looks to your car... 17s look great, but if you plan to do engine mods and stuff, anything bigger than a 16'' starts to lag your start off the line, you will feel it when you hit the accelerator, i know the 17s look good but IMO its not worth the power decrease...

Rep Power: 0 its not a total power decrease, its the time it takes to get off the line, and its not dynoable cuz its in the tires so its really your decision i was just givin my 2 cents, and when you have a car with over 500 hp i dont think you would be able to feel the power decrease, but for our civics wit under 200 you would

Rep Power: 0 I wouldn't mind 16s but I have not seen any member rides here that have 16s without some type of lowering kit. I won't be making any spring or strut upgrades.
