Ok, well i am stuck in a rut with choices galore for wheels. I will have right around $1000 for wheels

1st:
16" SSR Smoothie style wheel
http://www.memoryfab.com/wheels/usedjapan1/a585514/
$800 Shipped

2nd:
15" Suden Mesh style wheel
http://www.rbwheels.com/index.php?main_ ... cts_id=554
$430 shipped

3rd:
15" Work NR four
http://www.rbwheels.com/index.php?main_ ... ts_id=1627
$830 shipped

15" Work Ewing RSZ

These will be going on my 93 civic sedan. Body color will more than likely be milano red. but it could be either Matte tan or Matte green also.

what kind of style are you going for with your car? does wheel weight make any difference to you?

the smoothies would look awesome on the right styled civic (dumped)

the NR Four are different and I kinda like them too. +32 offset will sit nice.

The Suden Mesh are +25 offset but look like they are +55 offset the way the centers bulge out so far :thumbdown: opposite of dish...

Work Ewing RSZ are different, but not all that attractive IMO. They look light weight, not sure if they are though
:?

i am dumping the car regardless of wheel choice. the car will be mainly stock with brake and suspension upgrades. I will be taking this to a few of the open track days at my local track. but i have my set of track wheels. these will be DD status. i am liking the SSR's alot, and i have been for a while now. and they come with tires.

Work Ewing RSZ's :thumb:

I personally would go with the bbs rs's or ssr mesh's off the rbwheels web page :hehe:

ya i am a BBS whore, i have a set of BBS's right now that i cant even fit on my car :( i just had a set of BBS RD's the orig, and made a hefty profit off them

i like the RSZ's but i dont think they will look good on my civic. I am still leaning towards the SSR Smoothies. seeing that my car will be dumped., and painted Matte Tan
