i have a 2001 black accord coupe 4cyl and i plan to get some 17" rims with 215/45/17 tires.The problem is i cant choose between the four rims pictured below...so help me out and let me know what u think by the way i know most of us hate chrome but my girl loves it so a couple of them are chrome so dont flame me O.K :thumbup:

This is my first choice "ADR DEMONYA "

My second choice " FALKEN TORQUE 5"

Her choice " MANGELS SAVANNAH"


if some one could photoshop the first wheel on this accord so i could show her then i know she'll let me get the black/machined rims

 

Step 1. Have girlfriend release death grip on your nads.

Step 2. Tell her that Accords don't look good with chrome wheels and you aren't going to buy ugly heavy chrome wheels just cause she wants you to.

Step 3. That money you are gonna use to buy wheels...spend it on suspension, if nothing else just a 1.5" drop, cause it'll look funny with 17's and no drop.

Step 4. Come back with some non chrome options.

Okay, I'm done. I'm just messing with ya. But really, chrome really isn't gonna look good, and your car would really look good with a drop and without the tint. But it's your car, whatever makes you happy.

 

chrome isn't pretty to me either....should be reserved for cars in the pre-emissions era, i.e., 1960 fords and shit.........i think some nice white wheels would look good, or maybe gunmetal.....

 

I wouldnt go with any of them but out of the 3, I would go with hers. But jschmid's right, no chrome

 

:lmfao: x 10 and :werd:.
Do you like chrome yourself?

If it's just your girl that likes it, the tell her to buy it for HER car, not yours.

 

I would get something like gunmetal with polished lip or something like Type -S rims. Its totally up to you. Its your money. You give me the money and I will get you some rims........

 

1. i would have her release death grip but i just married her 12 days ago so deathgrip is just getting started.

2. tried that but she wasnt hearing me at all

3. drop is next getting rims and whells now because i need two of my tires replaced so it makes no sense to waste money on 15" tires when i know 17" is the cars destiny.

4. isn't the first rim none chrome its black and machined

 

Haha, well congrats anyway. I'm married as well.

Good to hear you are doing the suspension. Another word of advice, watch the offset on 17's. Try to get at least a 42 offset. I had some 40 offset 17x7's bolted up to my car once to see where they sat, and they stuck out a bit. I would have rubbed pretty good.


just remember to avoid chrome

 

I'm not against chrome so I think there are better chrome rims you could choose but out of the three I would go with the FALKEN TORQUE 5 in gun metal w/polished lip. (I now you said chrome) http://www.falkentire.com/wheels/html/torque5/

 

They are chrome and look kinda tuner like
