Default Need some Opinions.. Wheels and Exterior styling

Hey everyone. I just posted a thread not too long ago about getting a B18C1 in my 2000 Civic Coupe (EK is the chassis code??? I dunno.). Anyways I have to start styleing my car now and making decisions for the future.

1st- Should I go showy with the Buddy Club kit, or go sleeper with the SiR, OEM/JDM kits, lips etc?

2nd- Wheels... I'm thinking Rotas.. but I was considering the Subzero 17" If I go sleeper i may consider others.

3rd- Go all motor or just save up for some form of forced induction for my B18C1... and if F/I, which way should I go... turbo or Supercharger? I was thiknin Jackson Racing Super Charger. Give me some feedback. Thanks!

first it's an EJ not an EK

1st - i perfer the sleeper look, like c-west makes some really good clean kits
2nd - rotas are great, strong, light, and cheap (machiii.net)
3rd - all motor is better because of instant throttle response, but between a turbo and a supercharger you'd want a turbo, becuase of easier modability and higher boost

Look into the cwest body kits or mugen and greddy style lips. racing hart or volk racing are the way to go. If you can afford them look into rh evolutions or rotas and ever velox. I am trying to sell a brand new set of RH evolution CP8s in bronze 17x7 with a 4x 100 bolt. I want to get a type r 5 lug conv. that is the reason for selling. Any type R wheels look good on EK HB or cpe exspecially the new RSX type R wheels. Good luck OH yeah my wheels are going for $900
