Katana VR-7

Does anyone know if these rims come in 18's. They look pretty dope, and I think I'm pretty much set on em. That is, if they come in 18's.

Looks like they only make them in 17s but the Motegi MR7 looks exactly the same and it's about the same price.

I was just thinking ..... since I have no kit (and dont plan on getting one) .... would 17's look better on my car than 18's? or no difference? Cuz i think 18's would look huge on my car if I have no kit.

I don't think they took too big without a kit...You gotta have a drop though.

I just had a conversation with one of my friends and he mentioned that if i dont find a rim that resembles the c2 in gunmetal/black .... i can always powder coat them. I don't really understand this concept ... Does this cost alot?

If the name Katana is in it, then it's ok by me. Even if I didn't like how they looked so much, Katanas by nature are sharp. .

Yeah you will kick yourself if you get 17" and not the 18". I was worried about $$, potholes,the ride, and performance when I went down to the 17" when I would have been perfectly fine with 18" :-( oh well too late now save that $$ for the next ride :-)
