    welcome

    17's seem a bit... big for a EA chassis. 15s, maybe 16's would look best in my opinion. glad to see some people still working on them though :)

    I'm on the factory 14's (the rears with the circles in them) wrapped in Khumo tires.

    looks good, you'd be surprised how big 15's or 16's would look on that car, those 17's look like 18's or 19's. 15's would probably look like 17's with the right tires. maybe not 15's but 16's for sure.

    Nice project. Id agree with 15s or 16s. I have 15s on my coupe and theyre just a little small IMO, but on an eg or a CRX they look bigger.

    some white buddy clubs would look good on there in 15" ....password had them in 15's for a set of four for just over 400 bones...probably one of the cheaper things on that damn shop.:)
