Default ap2's or ap1's?

I'm drivin on my ap2 rims right now, but I have an opportunity to trade them with another s2k drivers ap1's. I'm going to be lowered on some buddyclub N+ and an oem front lip. Should I keep my 17's, or would the ride look bettter with the 16" ap1's????????? Thanks!!

is this a serious question? honestly, throwing ap1's on an ap2 looks like crap. why would you want to get rid of your beautiful 07 wheels!?!?!

stock ride height, yes it would look like crap. But like I said I will be lowered and with the right tire size the rims look good with the car. Just want some input if anyones done it and if they liked that look better.

Even lowered, the 17"s will look better than AP1s.

I like the AP1 wheels better, but I may be the only one!

Me too. IMO, the later model rims look like they belong on an Escalade.

Ditto. 5-spokes are classy.

There is a MUCH better tire selection in 17" fitment than in 16", of course if you don't care about tire adhesion....it doesn't matter, but then why drive an S2000 in the first place?
