Second thoughts...
Dammit... I was hoping this wouldn't ever happen, but it is. I'm having second thoughts about my wheels. I think they're too big and I wish I would have spent the extra couple hundred bucks and gotten the wheels that I really wanted, but couldn't bring myself to spend... in 16". So now I've got these... oh well... I guess I learned my lesson... just buy it.
Someone tell me how the hell to get off of this case??? I mean.. I know some of you go through wheels like dirty underwear, but I can't do that... cuz anything I like isn't cheap by anyones standards. How does one just live with what you got and be happy? Anyone know?
[/end rant]
On another thought... how many of you successfully bought "the ones" on the first try?

Rep Power: 380 If your really that hungup on those other wheels, you could sell the OZ's and get them. You'd still have your Si wheels to roll around on. so its not like youd lose the use of the car.

Rep Power: 424 The Advans are $360 for 16x7. I'll probably run out this year on the OZs then try and sell them over the winter (I'm not driving in the snow on them).. then order the RGs next spring. That is... IF I decide to do it.
Sometimes, I can see right through myself ...

Rep Power: 481 I'm totally happy with the rims I bought. I sat for months and months trying to find rims, but I kept coming back to the same set. I've got a set of 17x7 TenzoR Passion5s in white with the optional blue center cap. They're sporty and clean all at the same time and compliment the car well.

Rep Power: 0 i was happy with my first choice of rims, even though I got them cheap and used, but I had to get rid of them. I love my new 16's. I just wish my car didnt look like a 4X4. Good luck with your decison. I think both sets of wheels look nice.

You're trying to talk yourself into settling for something that you weren't totally sure about 8 months ago. Now it sounds like you have zeroed in on exactly what you want, so there's nothing wrong with going to Plan B if you want to.
