I dont think they are horrible, but I definitely think there are better options avail.

Either wait for kits like H&R's 1-1.5" drop to come out (so your car won't be hitting speed bumps and will be able to get on lifts) and then get the wheels or please don't get them at all.

I think so, but it isn't out yet for the 7th gen.

But BTW, I love C5's. I'd get them in 18's and then drop it an inch or so. That'd make it look nice and clean.

Thanks you all for your opinions!

Personally, I like how it looks in the picture I posted, but it can always look different in real life. I want to have that "Sport-Luxary" look, just like how the car is designed to look. Infact, the 03 V6 6-spd model comes with 17" and it looks fine, but a little small.

I think I'll first get the rims then see how things go. I'll drop the car if it looks nasty, but it my last choice. My 97 accord had a bunch of suspension problems when I lowered it, so I'm just trying to stay away from that.

Definitely no Ferrari sticker on mine! hahaha

17", those look like the factory equipment optional wheels.
