there ya go, corrected your post. now the pictures show. I have 17s on my car to, you see any problems with your wheel's dimenstions clearing the rear strut seat? I put 1/4" spacers in the rear, else there was little rub when the car bounced a little.

What width tires are on there? Wheel offset?

17's are not my thing but they do look good.

Very nice.  I'm usually a person who would go with (though I haven't) some sort of wire wheel or dark finish for a wheel like yours, but that's very classy.  The wheels fill out the wells nicely.  Also, the car looks to be in great shape.  Keep up the good work.

Oh, by the way, what kind of seats did you install in there?

If you don't mind my asking how much did you pay for those wheels and where did you get them?

The best part was the price.  My friend totaled his Integra and he gave me the wheels.  The tires are bald and 2 of the wheels have minor scuffs. I took a pic of the best wheels.  I know they are kinda big, but for free, even with the scuffs, they look better than the stock  ugly wheels.

Agreed! Nice touch. Kinda bugs me that my husband put 15s on... ...now thats to MUCH rubber. Still an upgrade I guess, but at the time the vehicle was suppost to be a 100 mile a day commuting beater, and he didnt want to spend $160 a tire every time, like I have to.
