Rim Choice: Grid or Boost?

(Grid) or

(Boost)

On my Blue ES-GT with an MSP exterior conversion.

Looking at 17". What do you think would look nicer?

Out of those 2 I like the Grids more. Subzero and Torque looks good too

The Boost will look like a bigger wheel because of the thinner spokes....I like the boost.

+2 for the Gride. So how much are run for?

 

[the_jaf]

Not sure, i'm just comparing styles on the car and how they would look on blue.

Here is the grid with a polished lip:

Of the two, Grid hands down.

Boosts FTW.

Boosts FTW.

I like em both... get two of each and put two on one side and the other on the other side and see how many people pick up on it. (rofl)

Hmm...cant decide =(

Grid!

Now here's the thing, do you guys think that the polished lip makes the rim look smaller? If I do get the polished lip, on one of these rims, should I move up to an 18"? So it won't look like 16" rims if I go 17"?

I've heard this many times on the forum. a good roll is daily driver stick with 17" or 16" show car go with 18"

I've had both and the 18's will kick you around more so than the 17". Plus the 18's are hard as hell to tell if they are flat. HAH

 

[nate0123]

agreed - 17s max

 

[zumzumzoom03]

agreed - 17s max

It's also a little easier to find rubber for 17's. Most places laughed when I told them about the size I neede with my 18's. They had to order them for the most part.
