I'm riding 15' and i think it's too small.

I've seen gen 3 on 18' and i can tell it's ugly because the gen 3 body is slim.

17' with an even drop on each spring is definitely the killer.

Enough said and go 17' already ^^

In that case:

The borbet looks dummy, forget it

The RX style require either body kits or a baller car to apply

EvoFire with his gen 3 is riding on IS rims, it looks good on the sign, I will start searching a set for myself soon too ... Go IS !!!

The IS's look way better than any of the others, and you'll have an easier time with fitment.

that's some fucked up shit. My parents just gave me my first car.

If your going to buy rims get atleast 16 in rims. I have 4 is rims and love them. The thin 5 spoke rim looks cool imo. The only problem is if you have rear drum brakes, the rear rims wont fit.

Also dont go to the junkyard for rims. Thats a terrible idea. The rims will(well they were for me) be bent and cost you just as much to fix them as to buy new rims.
