They look good, I think those are ones I considered before. Just make sure you brakes are lookin good before you put them on, or they will be exposed and rusty looking

Ech. I don't like them at all. Too spokey and big. I think the FB looks great on a set of 15s or 16s, but aren't those 17s? They look too big for the car. Bling Bling 
But I'm also really picky. To each his own

They look good dimensionally but the dark color doesn't work with the white....you need graphics or some kind of help in the paint department for those rims...plain white can't support those rims...

15's look best on this car, IMO, and anything larger than that is simply overkill. The SE's came from Mazda with 14x5.5, so 15x6 is about perfect to fit the fender wells and still look good, but hey, I'm biased,...

well...although they look pretty big those are 16's...maybe the photochop doesn't do them justice...
15's i think are too close to the 14's and 17's i agree are way overkill...
does someone have 16's that they can post?

Love the rims man. Mind if i ask what kind they are? I'm personally looking at some Enkei CDR-9's (if i can get them) and they sit about a 16 aswell. The color doesn't go well with the white though, I'd go with some polished alluminum (sp) it's more of a "natural" look (if there is one)

I'm not feeling those rims. Of course I'm biased because I'm not a big fan of putting new school rims on a old school car. I'd rather see something like longchamps,watanabe,panasports, or something of that sort.

17's aint to big, I got them on my janx yo.
I wish I could post pictures but I just got a set of 17 konig imagines on my car (same exact rims as MAX7) with 215/45 rubber all around and havent had much problems with rubbing besides some use on the road coarse in which they rubbed but havent cut the tire.
Besides, Im rolling the fenders and painting the car this week. Look up pictures of max7s car and I guaruntee you they're not too big.
