what wheels?

what kind of wheels would look good on a black civic coupe? i don't wanna go with gun metal or black, but i also don't wanna go with white or any of those other painted one (no chromies either). what do you suggest? anyone have pictures of their custom rims?

ok let me get this straight....

you dont want gunmetal, black, white, colors, or chrome...

whats left? bronze or silver?

if you want rims get some tenzo r shu-10 http://www.autosportz.com/rims_tenzo.htm

i would post tenzos own website but it seems to be down right now

i think bronze looks the best on a dark car, so i say bronze slipstreams or konig heliums.

i have a 96 black civic and i'm trying to decide the same thing. i think i am going to go with some silver enkei cdr 9. i also really like the silver tenzo av 7 and konig tantrums. those two look like the motegi mr 7's but they are a lot lighter.
Silver Enkei CDR9: 21.5lbs.

OH DAMN...i never knew that the motegi's weighed 24.5lbs...shit...

well I just found out that the heliums come in 17" silver now...so...Ill be gettin those...sooooo light....and they also have 19"...those still gotta weigh in less than 18lbs...but i think that 19" is totally overkill
