I vote for the Roush wheels in 18's.

I think 20's are the way to go but I dont really like any that were chosen anyway.

If i had to pick though it'd be the GT500's

I am thinking 18's or 19's will be the way to go as I don't want the car to drag *** until I get the Supercharger. How do you guys think the 18" Roush wheels will look?

Just to overpriced for me.

I like the razors but I don't know if I am sold on them. The chrome in the razors just stands out too much for me. I like the more subtle look like the attached pic.

I just don't know how good that is going to look with the Roush fascia. Wheels can totally throw off the look of a car imo

thats the size to go with hands down. anything smaller will look too small.. those are perfect.

to me, the GT500 mock-offs look horrible. They just dont do the same thing as the OEM wheels. The razors are cool but are becoming popular. my vote is for either the saleens or the roushs

Is there any way we can get a shot of this car at the same angle as the car in my signature is?

I'm trying to find out some information on the right wheel sizing to achieve a similiar look to that on my accord (in the sig)

What about the 20" Alcoas from the Super Snake? Pricey but lightweight & forged!

The Alcoa's are the sweetest rim around! If not going for those I would do either the Shelby Razors or some Foose rims. I love 20's with some dish, much better than flush. Dish makes them look sooooooo sweet!
