I've been looking to pick up a set of these for my car, does anyone have any pictures of a black SN95 with 17 or 18 inch chrome 03 wheels?
I'm not sure how much of a difference that 1 inch would make!

It's noticeable when your looking for it, but just looking at them in person isn't. I'll try to post some pics later. I don't have any on this computer. You could do a search and I'm sure some pics will show up on this site.

Looked through dozens of pages in the wheels thread, but I didn't manage to find any black cars with 03's. Honestly, I can get the 18's for 100 bucks more for the set, if they don't look TOO big in person I'll definitely keep em.

tires are alot more for the 18s though but they do look better and I can def notice. The lower profile tires make it more obvious than the change in wheel diameter.

Check one of my previous threads I made. I had polished 18x9/10.5's and they were my favorite wheels. I loved them until I hit a curb with them and ruined both right side wheels. I now have FR5's and like them a lot, but the 18" 03s kick major rump.

Also, what do you do with the car?

Ride around and look good= 18s.

Less rotational mass, better track times, cheaper tires=17s

The 17's look just right! Saving money and weight seems to be the dealmaker for me.

Thanks for the tips and pics :beer:

I got 17's with a 1" spacer in the back and it looks mint. I don't have pics since I'm at work, but look at my previous threads there are some there.
