I can't decide if I want to buy rims for looks or rims for performance. If I get performance rims then i will be getting Spoon rims. I haven't what rims i would get for looks.

What do you all think?

I've been looking at those rims too. But its gonna cost about the same amount to get Spoon and I would rather have a 7lb rim that works better for drag than a 17inch that weights more.

But i am going to be doing a K20 swap and turbo. So its not going to be any ol' 7thgen.

What I want are the new Velox Pg s5 rims. Their only 11.5 lbs. But they only come in 17's. I want 18's or 19's since I'm all show. Check out those rims Fly.

Go with the 18's (or 19's) for the look Fly.........if you do have your K20 Turbo engine in there one day (I hope you do), I don't think that boosted powerplant would have to much of a problem getting those bigger wheels moving

sw388 by spoon/regamaster is coo... light rims.. and so are the mf8/10 by mugen... but hella honda's sport those 2 rims/look-a-likes(like me)
or u could always look into the Sinko-R's... they are becoming one of the most popular rims now... everyone that used to sport the mugen/spoon's are tryin to get the sinkos.

Get the bigger rims. You could always sell them when its time for performance.

7lb rims + pot holes = costly

i would reconcider the weight youre going for aswell. unless youre only keeping those wheels for the track...

Well, you could go with Mugen wheels... I think the 16's weigh 10.8. TE-37s are also under 11. Advan RG's weigh about 9 lbs for 15, 12 for 16. SSR Competitions are around 12 lbs for 16" also.
There's lots of wheels that are light as hell that also look good.
