I am planning on getting rims next but i cant decide if i want 17 or 18. What i want to know is how good 17 looks on 2g so anyone who has 17 on their car please post pics. I need a lot of pics to make my decision.
 
It will probably look better with 18's. You can keep the 16's for racing or whatever, that's what I did.

Check my gallery for 18's.
 
Go look in the Galleries, anything that is a 97 or later will have 17's on it, they come that way from the factory.

17 inch Konig Verdicts inside Kuhmo Ecsta 711s, dominating the snow ;)
 
Here are my old 17" Primax 612 in Khumo Ecstica 205/40/17. I liked the rims, they were light. I hate Khumo tires... unless you dish out for the really good ones.

Man these pics bring back memories...

Looks nice. 600 ain't a bad deal either. Make sure it our pattern before you buy them... 5x114.3

I'll take his car too.... I love those R32's...
 
I love these rims because it matches real well with the colour an dthe car. But I prolly gonna get some 18" rims to fill out the wheel well more. If I have an 18" in these rims, I would be set and never have to buy new rims.

17" Konig Tuners, they don't produce this style in a long time, but they still make similar styles.

What made you want to go back to stock spring? Is it b/c its too low?
 
JDM, your car is low, however your still on the stock bumpers - the 2ga bumper for that matter. try driving around in my car with a nose that sticks out 10 ft, haha i do not suggest slamming a car with a body kit... ever.
