dont have my pics up yet.. i dont know much about it but i would think that if ur gonna go speed.. u would probably want 15's *** they willl spin quicker and ur gages will be more accurate ( i think)... also, unless ur gonna get a good deal on some 16's ..why spend the xtra money on another inch of wheel if u dont care what they look like?

15's all the way. You also have the best selection of real performance tires in 15's.

That's actually what I am going to get . Some flat black ones. you can't beat that deal. i want to see it mounted on a 200sx though.

I'll have pics of the 15" flat black Rota Slipstreams on my car next week. Tired of b.s.ing so I sold the 18's and bought these.

Glad you said I think...because its not the size of the wheel...Its the size of the tires ;)
Go with 15's man...loose a few more pounds, unless you get a good deal on 16's as was said before, but I wouldn't go over 15's.
Well I got my new wheels on. I ended up getting bronze slipstreams. They're definately going to take some getting used to. I'm used to looking at 18's for so long. I had to get some cheap tires for now on them but they seem to be ok. I'll post some pics later today. Also I opted for the kyokugen (sp?) lug nuts. YEAH WHO'S JDM NOW DOGG?? :D

I am getting the flat black ones. =)
Yeah I had planned on getting the black one's as well. I drove 2 hours to go pick up the wheels, and when I got there the man informed me that they were out of black. If the bronze doesn't grow on me then I'll just get them powdercoated black.
