So i sold my 18" Rims a few months ago, they were cool, but a little to big for daily driving and i was rubbing like a muthaF with my drop. Currently riding on my crappy steelies. I need some opinions on which rims i should choose. I'm debating between which color would look best, silver or gunmetal. They are 16" rims. what do you guys think

i like the darker look, but thats just me...

I'd say gun-metal. Dark wheels on dark car look hawt. Although, have you ever thought of getting bronze wheels? Dark blue Protege like yours on bronze wheels would look banging!

I say go with the silver ones....they will stand out more. Also you should get them in 17's. 17's seems to fit the Protege just perfectly.

yup

I have thought about bronze wheels. I agree it would look banging. Just can't find ones that i really like. I was get some used bronze painted Rotas, but the guy sold them before i could snatch them up.

Yeah, i know 17's would fit. But the question is will they rub, with my 18's on some very low profile 215/35/18 tires and about a 3-3.5 inch drop was rubbing and with people in my car even worst. It rubbed so bad that it bent the lip on my fender outward.

thinking about getting these used rims for this guy. Not really looking to spend to much money on car anymore now a days.

i also like those rims that you just posted up but i would say the darker look is better on your car than silver rims!

 

[DiS]

17's wont rub as long as you dont get too wide of the tires.

i think you should get rev wheels the model 2s look just like that and i can cut you a deal.
