So you consider this to be rice?


Oh well, I guess you could strip them off if it really bugged you that much. Anyways... if you want 15's then get something real light, like the Racinghart CP-F TuneR, Spoon SW388 or Mugen MF8
Pretty much the same goes for 16's, weight is the name of the game. 17's is where I consider appearance to start playing in considerably. Then it's all by personal taste and you're gonna have to look at what you like.
Si's are a safe bet... although everyone and their mother (literally) has them, since the EX's come from the factory like that now.

R-1 Racing GTR-6 is a copy of that rim. I don't know anything about them though - quality, etc... Also, I personally don't like the white inners and white hub emblem but I dunno, take a look...
