Which of the 2? I like plain rims as you can see if you got any other suggestions that would be great..looking for 17's maybe 18's without doing any modifications

I like all 3. I think stock rims looks just as good as the other 2. I wouldn't bother changing rims.

plain style rims eh? how about the rh evo c5's?
http://www.1010tires.com/wheel.asp?w...&wheelmodel=C5

i always liked them since i was interested in modding. but i'd personally keep the stock rims, if thats no choice, i like the sport edition because the borbet looks too "daisy/flowery" type. which reminds me of a beetle. but the sport ed. looks just like the "gt's that adr makes along with enkei, see too many of those.

I like the Borbet wheels out of the two. It looks more normal and stockish.

Here are a few suggestions if your interested.
Nakayama 6 Speed.
Katana Inspire
konig Prophet in Opal
ACE Spade, which kind of looks like the optional Honda wheels
Nakayama Vador. It comes in silver and is often seen on the RSX Concept.

I know you like simple wheels, but it doesn't mean you can't be a little sporty with your choice. Those are some of the clean wheels that I like. Also get something with a decent name that is known for making wheels. I have heard of Borbet, but not those Fox wheels.
