hey guys im looking into some performance rimes. i have found 2. both are 17x7.5 and 19lbs and other is 16lbs each and these are it. Kazera KZ-X Black w/Red Stripe
for the price of only $556 i think they are good.

however my friend said that i should get 18x7.5. i just wana know from you guys what one i should get? and is there a difference between that 17/18x7.5. atm i got the stock rims.

*note* that im going to get these after i get new suspension which will lower the car 1/2 inch
 
The difference between 17/7.5 and 18/7.5 is the rim size. The first number is the actual rim size of either 17 or 18 inches. The 7.5 is the width of the rim. Stock wheels are 17/7.5.

Both rim sets are lighter than the stock rims which are at around 25ish pounds. Lighter wheels are more for racing but post a link to both sets or rather the other set so we can see the specs on the other set of rims.
 
Honestly I prefer the Enkei's better but you should wait until the price drops a bit. Maybe even try to find some OEM Evo IX or X rims.
