should I get 16's or 17's
Im trying to decide if I want to get 17's or 16's. I live in Indiana and the roads are pretty bad and I dont want to have to worry about popped tires, bent rims or bad rubbing. I would have to use 50 series tire or the 16's and a 45 on the 17's, do you think it would be good to have the extra cushion of the 50 series? Either way I am going to get Enkei rs5's or rsf2's. Tell me what you think. Sorry for the dumb *** post on the other board [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 I've got the new Si too. I put 17"s with 45's on. So far the ride's been really good. Not too bumpy, not to cushy. Of course...mines lowered too. So with stock suspension the 17's with 45's might feel too cushy. Go with the 45's if you're lowering it. Hope that's of some use to you.

I would say 17" I am looking at the 215/45 or 225/45 to put on mine but I don't plan on lowering.

Rep Power: 0 Sounds like 17's are the way to go SmoothOperator, do you have any pics of your ride? I think I might try to order from wheelmax, they are selling 17's RS5's for 799$ with tires. Not bad.
