It depends on what you want the car for. I think everyone on here except one guy who wanted to run 22's will agree they're way too big. The way that car is set up it will be a really rough ride, and it doesn't apear to have upgraded brakes because of the plates they have on them, so it probably doesn't stop well...proly doesn't take off too well either with those wheels, lol. For a show car you can pull them off, but most people seem to think 17's is the biggest to go. I love the way 18's look though.

22's=

I'm still waiting on my 34 spinners, I had to swap out the engine for a vtec I4 to make room for these bad boys, but when you see me rolling down the street you're gonna be so jealous. Lol

Online I agree about looking like she's from a "Hot Wheels" catalog.To each is own but not for me.Well at least it's not a '80-'96 Caprice or Crown Victoria.How many of those have you see?

looks like a drug dealer car to me. it's like a honda with lights under the car, not to make it look nice... just to force people to look at, even though the whole time your looking at it ur not thinking wow, that looks nice but instead ur thinking what a duschbag. 17/18 looks the best on thirgenz sometimes 18 looks like too much
