even tho i hate cheap knockoff rims, those Velox i will admit, hopefully none of my friends are reading this, i think their pretty nice. they remind me of the Volk GTN's, and btw, get 18' Gun-metal rims. 16' wheels? man, dont get aftermarket than, go get some OEM wheels, ewww, aftermarket 15 or 16' wheels, THAT MAKES no sense to me. i have high end wheels, and let me say, they dont have to be forged. i dont think mines are forged, but their 18' racing hart 3 piece wheels, and their as light as my OEM 15', sometimes i feel lighter even. i didnt pay over $2000(not including tires even) only for handling. i got bigger wheels for looks, and i kno my turning is better. and even if i couldnt afford expensive rims, i would get 18' cheap rims. he must be getting wheels cuz of looks, not many get wheels cuz of better handling suspension, even my friends with TT supras, he got wheels cuz he wanted a sick lookin car, and he has over 500 HPs dYNOED without racing fuel and whatever. and noticing how are host is indifferent and doesnt seem to kno that much about his car, i dont think he's trying to have a crazy car handling machine, just something that drives nice and looks good. cuz if i was him, i would investigate whats up with this DX V6? makes no sense to me either. if u go 15s or 16s go OEM, anything bigger get aftermarket. i say 18s. if ur lowered with little wheel gap, big wheels and a nice lip kit or even no body kit, u can still look hard. who said u need to upgrade the breaks? my friends have bigger breaks on their JDM gsr engined civics, turboed 5th generation preludes, TT supras and rx-7s, and thats the last thing i see LOL.
