Default here's another one

I am goin to get some new rollers on my 93 dx. Should I go 17 or 16? also which of these two rims? should I run staggered. The MB's dont come in a staggered set up.

Ill definitely say the 7-spokes rims. They look so much nicer!

Agreed. Id say go with 16's all around, not staggered or offset and you'll be ridin clean!!!! Not to bash you or anything, but Id also like to know why you had that thought of staggered wheels...?


In a year or so, you'll probably see some other ones you like better and feel you need to have them. Alot of people like to change things up when they get old or bored. Its good to change it up, but make sure you want to spend that decent amount of money on some rims-when that money could be put to such good use on something else. Performance maybe. I only say that b/c I made the mistake of spending $750 on my rims and tires, rather than a turbo charger. :doh:

get the 5 spoke ones. they look best and black is way better then gold. and get 16" if any thing. after you get bigger then 16" it starts to look bad. and smaller rims are better for racing anyway.

Heres a picture of a 93 DX with 17". In my opinion they look too busy looking for a standard car with no exterior modifications.

If it where me I'd pick a size you like and get the 5 spokes. They look less busy, yet racier and would be easier to clean. Good luck on your decision ...Jack
