Need suggestions on RIMS

Ok..
so i'm planning on getting rims by the end of this summer (saving up). I've already started looking around.
So far i have ADRs in mind because I really like 'em.

Which one do you guys recommend? Or should i go with something other than ADRs?

17x7 or 18.7.5?


I'll really appreciate the suggestions! THanxxx


Cypher


Model Flite 4


SZ1

cool man. I like the sz1. I just put on 18x7.5 ADR Ryvers on last week. i put some kuhmo tires on it and it looks hot. only thing is it steers to the left a bit, so i got an alignment done and it still does it. so i think i have to check the tire pressure to make sure its not off. other than that, i love my new rims.

I like the Model Flite 4's and the SZ1's. If I had a choice i'd put on the 18x7.5's but it all depends on how much you wanna spend.

^^^ won't going with 18's reduce torque? Someone told me that if you go with big rimz, it killz the torque. If it won't effect it, then i'll definately go with 18s.

I was actually going for the Cypher because they're 5 spoke, clostest to stock rims.

The flite 4's are nice but they are only made for 4-lug applications. The sz1 are nice but they are heavy.

I got some 17" Enkei RP02-Js. They are pretty light and wide to give very good handling. I didn't like them at first but then they grew on me.

Have you thought about any other brands???

There's a lot of different rims that look stock-ish but at the same time stand out .. but if your lookin to gO with the ADR's I like the Cypher's.

18's are the way to go ... i've run on rims size 15-16-17-18's and can barely tell the difference in losing torque, but it might be cuz i've added a few engine mods in the process of changing rims.. but I LIKE 18'S

i think the sz1's would look tight on your gen 5, and i would def go with 18's, any thing smaller and you will be disappointed. ive got 18's and i cant tell any diff in the torque (there's not that much to begin with in a 5sfe anyways).
