i own a white 04 scion xa, i have it on tanabe dress up springs, 2" drop. i had 18" black tenzo R rims but i hated the ride. it looked clean tho. the wheels were just to thin. i have them riding on stock blacks. i want new rims but i dono what size to go, i was thinking of 15 or 16" rotas GT-3 either gold or red. i want it to look clean and still have a steady ride. if anyone can give me advice i would appreciate it.

Thanks,
RQ86

The 15's or 16's will have a much smoother ride, but it is important to remember the tires as well. Pick what you like, no one wants to choose for you. It's about you and what you like.

Remember your style is more important than other people's opinions.

Happy Building it up and choosing new shoes!

Xetronic hit it right on the nose. But my experience has been that I can live daily in LA 1 million in potholes but wow I can't wait to go back to a smaller wheel :) More tire heaven :)

But style wise I like the 18's with thin tires :( allot. just can never keep them in good condition either.

I have 16s and I like the ride, very similar to stock. Unfortunately they are a little hard to find good performance tires for 16s, but if you just want to cruz around they are out there. Another plus is not having to worry about hole, dips, etc. because the 16s take them like a champ.
