largest I have seen in person was 19's...looked decent...but I'm thinkin the box deserves to be huggin the ground...none of this top heavy bs...keep it low n lean...but hey, just stating my opinion...u wanna bling bling ur box...go right ahead...but PLEASE put bags on it or somethin...so it can at least look low when it's parked! goddamit...there I go with my narrow minded thinking again! ugh

For your veiwing pleasure...
That is a 1.75 drop on a 5 speed.
Remember Automatics sit lower in front by about a 1/2". The guy I osld this package to has F'ed his fenders up already.
Best of luck.

^^Stylis; No disrespect to you nor Big Daddy but they look ridiculous IMO. I'm also not a fan of chrome, but if hes happy with them thats all that matters. His box, not mine. But that doesn't mean i have to like them either.

Now this is just my opinion, and my opinion only. I think 18s are perfect for those who want to show w/o compromising too much performance, hp-wise. 17s are the optimum wheel size for commuting, performance, and those occasional, or really frequent spirited drives. 15s w/ the proper offset are really good too.

i think 20's are hot IMO that looks good plus you dont have to drop it... still feels the gap...... looks good to me but you have to have the right wheel combo fo the car....
