Help...
okay..i cant make up my mind...i want 17 inch rims with tires but i cant get them now cuz i got three tickets..so i have decided to get a somewhat jdm look with some 15" rota rims..now i have a ssm coupe and i will have my headlights blacked out and possibly a carbon fiber..since i dunt have enough money i am thinking about these:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...941876412&rd=1
or
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...939784685&rd=1
my question is? which one will look better if any do at all and can i fit these on my stock 15" tires..i have 15" tires with hubcaps..and will i need an alignment?

The second ones I guess. No alignment needed if the rims are an exact match with stock. Alignment is needed only with new tires and drop.

If you are going to fit these wheels with your stock tires, I suggest you to save your money for 16" or 17". Stay with stock wheels for now

Don't settle for something you weren't planning on just cause of a minor setback. Keep saving, get the rims you want. You'll regret it otherwise....it'll always be in the back of your head that you intended to get one set of rims but instead rushed and bought this other set that doesn't appeal to you as much.

If you want to drag i'd go with the first ones, smaller=better, you can slap on fat *** tires on those rims and then reduce psi. If you want it for track i'd go with some wider rims for more handling.

they both look ok, but would look better in a larger size, I say save ur money and get what u really want. Cuz then u will be tryin to sell those and get the 17's u want and u wont get the money back off the 1st set and will be just delaying the rims that u desire most
