2005 CIVIC Special Edition Wheels

Does anyone have pics of there civic on the 15 spoke special edition wheels? i wanted to see some pics of the civic dropped with these wheels... also... when i change my tires.. what tire size would u recommend?.. i thought i would go with thinner tires for these 15 spoke rims... ALSO OPINIONS wanted on these rims.. what do U think of the Speciall edition rims...

i think they look good.. just too small =/.. if they were 16s or 17s XD

a friend of mine has them on his Vic.... the SE wheels are pretty much the same as the 1.7EL wheels. The wheels do look classy, but 16" are better

IMO they dont look good, if they were 16s they would be perfect, but 15 is too small.

No, it wouldn't. In 15's you wanna kind of stay at 50 series tire. And at 16's, a 45 series tire. Those 15' Special Edition rims don't look that great IMO.

so when i change my tires... what size should i get?... i saw some other people on here getting 215? and 205... which one would make a 15" rim look bigger maybe... or just which ones better for it (lookwise)... ALSO... do u guys think these Special edition rims look better than the stock 5 spoke 2004 rims?

5 spokes by far. i have them, so i might be biased, but i think the 04-05 ex 5 spokes, some older integra wheels, 99-00 si wheels and the 02-03 si wheels are the best looking honda oem wheels ever.

i do beleive that the stock tire size is 195/60R/15 and if you get new tires you should stick with stock size unless u get new rims...its bad cuz you screw up your gear ratios, and you speedo gets off calibration

No, not biased, i have the 15 spoke alloys i got with my 05 ex se. a lotta people ask if they are stock or aftermarket. even though i own the 15 spoke ones i like the 5 bar ones. id post a pict of them on my vic, but right now i have the enkei rims on it. BTW ill trade the 15 spoke rims for the 5 bar?? any takers?
