Need help finding stock looking 17" wheels

I have a civic Titanium Civic Hybrid Sedan and I'm looking for some 17" wheels. I'd like them to look stock like (i.e. not flashy and attention grabbing).

I kind of like the ASA JS6 wheel but its got some funky blue hub ring thing in the center. Another one I kind of like is the SSR GT7.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I like the tire rack website since it lets you see what looks good on your car but unfortunatly they don't have ever wheel made

Also, do 17"s look okay on cars that havent' been lowered? Should I consider lowering my car?

I have a set of 17" ASA JS6 Wheels. You can either buy a new set of centers or take the color out of the old ones. If you take out the color they will be all silver. Lowering your car will greatly improve handling but you will have a rougher ride. If you want a cheap set of asas' the have a new set of fusion tires on them 235/45 17 $800.00 obo. As for you suspension if you lower it make sure you get good stiff set up if you don't you will be bottoming out everywhere.

Back from the dead. I'm pretty sure he decided on the wheels already.

no offense to any jews... but that guy pulled a major jewish move... was so bent on selling the wheels he had, he didn't even look to see how old the thread was. and to top it off, that was his first post... I hope he does better.

Lets leave the antisemitism out of this. Has nothing to do with the guys religion, alright?

Haha, close the thread
