imo, on cars like this, any aftermarket wheels tend to cheapen the look of the car even if the wheels were to look decent. the car starts to look like a cheaper "value" for lack of better words. but stock wheels/hubcaps or higher trim model wheels retain that clean factory look and not some kid's ride or abused modded ride.
Yea, that's why i was thinking about some SER rims. I do want to drop...but im scared of philly winters :noes:

Am I the only one that thinks it's a complete waste of money to put rims on an otherwise stock compact car/family sedan? :dunno: I see more stock Civics running around with $800 wheels when IMO they could have done much more by buying some suspension mods or paying off a few extra moths.

This is why se-r rims are the best choice.

i think the stock se-r's would be a good bet. most of the time cheaper than after-market rims if you get the used.
