Thanks, but I really don't like the snowflake style. I'll probably end up going with a star, instead. Just can't make up my mind. Yeah I really don't want my car to end up looking like a lowrider, that's the last thing I want to do. But I'm burned out on stars and snowflake style, wanted to spice it up a little, but not enough to make it look like a jalepeno.

Apnea I don't get it lol. But if you're saying they're nice, then I'm with stupid. But if you're putting them down. Then I guess I'm just stupid hehe. What kind of wheels are those anyway? I can't really see the name on the center cap. Maybe if they were gun metal or something they'd look even better.

The more and more I look at them the more they look like lowrider rims. What do you guys think, to goddy for the rx7. I really like the way they look in comparison to other rims, but mounted on the car may be a different story. The good thing is they are 8.5 inches wide. I did a photoshop and they looked pretty nice.

i think im going to puke

I took your guys advise, and passed on the rims. They do look like lowrider rims in person, and obviously wasn't going for that look. I have been still looking around got till end of February to have found a set. I know this is probably rediculous but has anyone gone with 19's. I'm curious to see how they look fitted.

Also, search for LT1-7. His car was running 19 inch Volks and there are a ton of pics of them on this forum

The ride isnt as bad as I thought it would be. I always have to keep in mind that the stock FD still makes you feel every little pebble in the road (at least compared to my Accord). The handling changed a bit when I went to 19's. On a sunny day, grip is great and the car feels great. Rainy days are a little scary. The wide tires combined with the lightweight car makes for a nervous ride.

Really though, the only big difference is the road noise. Those 275s sure make a nice humming sound.
