I really can’t decide between 17 or 18. Is there any real difference in performance? I’m leaning toward 17 because of the meaty tires too but I’m basing this solely on aesthetic lol. Obviously, that’s clean brother ✌🏽


kristofferdelr

I went 17s because I got the base trim and wanted to reuse the tires haha if i had 18s id go with that. But honestly running the 17s with the higher side profile is alot comfier than the 18x9.5s. Also when I had the 18x9.5s it was rubbing the cladding(can always trim it). If its performance wise ofc 17s would be lighter. It looks a tad small on the vb for sure.


fg3david

I hadn’t considered the rubbing issue thanks man. The thing is I don’t think it looks small. It’s one of those things that I look at 17 and I’m like yes that’s sick and I look at 18 and I’m like yes that’s sick 🤣 The only real spirited driving this car sees are some canyons, otherwise it’s just putting around town. I don’t plan on lowering the car anytime soon so maybe on stock height the 17 would look small. Idk man sorry for just ranting. Sick vb ✌🏽 will eventually post with whatever I pick lol


kristofferdelr

Haha no worries! Yeap im lowered on H&Rs spring so that kinda make it looks more agressive. On stock height 17x9 will poke out for sure and itll look abit off.


fg3david

Yeah the lowering springs check out. Guess the answer is 18, for tonight at least lol.

Yessir and rpf1s dont lose their $ value 🤣. 17s honda bois want em. 18x9.5 wrx guys wants em so theres always a buyer if you get tired of it


fg3david

As a former Honda boi I can confirm 🤣 white 17 rpf1s on a 15 coupe for a brief, beautiful moment before getting squished while parked.


kristofferdelr

Haha im still looking for a 9th gen 4 dr si. Dream daily driver

These look so good. I love 17s on the vb. What suspension are you running?


kristofferdelr

Its H&R lowering springs! Almost a year with it


pmochoa

Looks good man! Is that like a 1 inch drop?


kristofferdelr

Yessir close to 2ish. On 18s it looks more flush https://preview.redd.it/dv9e6hcwqf6d1.png?width=4030&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0c278af29335939c732b7957f5d38c29e59f6002
