Lost 36 pounds yesterday

Christmas came early and I got some SSR Type-C's 17x7.5. They weigh 13 lbs each on my scale at home while the stock SE wheels weigh 22 lbs each. Here's some pics.

I don't have them because I do not think they are needed. I think it looks good w/o them.

My one problem with those rims is that the spokes curve so far away from the edge it makes the rim look a lot smaller than it really is. I think they look nice, but I would never buy them myself.

It looks great, nice choice of wheels. As for the side skirts the stock ones look fine.

nice rims! I think if you drop a bit lower it would make the 17's look bigger.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone. I do notice a little quicker acceleration and a little bit smoother ride now. And I went from the stock SE wheels to these.

Why did you go with such small wheels? My 5th gen came with 17's and they looked really small.

And I agree that your car needs the Stillen side skirts to complete the look with the front and rear lips.
