Need some help deciding on wheel upgrade
I have an 07 Base Fit that this past winter I had some winter tires mounted onto the steelies.
My plan was/is to ditch the winter & steelies come Spring and upgrade to a nice 15" rim and some summer tires.
Seeing as I have a BASE model, with NO drop, I'm just reluctant now to spend the $$$ if the wheels will look silly.
What makes it even worse is that I really don't like many aftermarket rims out there.
I'm leaning towards the Rota Slipstreams. Does anyone know of a good place to buy them that will also provide the hub rings, nuts, and of course mounted and balanced tires?
I'd love to buy from Tirerack.com, but the only wheels I like, appearance wise, are these cheap, but very heavy wheels Sport Edition F2 Silver Painted
Besides those, I'm also leaning towards the TR motorsports C1M
TRMotorsport C1 Light Grey Painted
Is there anything important to look for in terms of width and offset for a base model with no drop?
Help! It's already getting warm and I simply can't make up my mind!!!

If you can spare the money and you want to extend the life of all of the moving parts in your steering, brakes, clutch and suspension.... Improve the ride, handling, gas mileage, and acceleration. The 15"X7" 9 1/2 Lb. Enkei RPF wheels are the way to go.... There are lots of pretty wheels that cost less but they only improve the way your car looks.
