I HATE silver lip wheels....words can't express how ugly I think they are!! IMO, you should've gone with all black wheels or gunmental or something like that. This is just my opinion....the car itsself is really clean for a 5th Gen....been taken care of it looks like

i really like the silver lip, cuz if you have just an all black rim, to an untrained eye from far away, it just looks like a steelie (or just plain dirty)... if you're guna get black or gunmetal wheels, it's all about the polished lip.

ugly
To me they just look ugly. They look cheap and just dont go with your car. You could have saved an extra $50 and got 17" rims. Maybe some tint or something but to me it doesnt look good.

i like the poslished lip too, but the spoke design doesn't go all that well with the car (at least for me). what's the weight of the wheels ?

thats totaly understandable... BUT my point was simply that the "tuners" here are not exactly after the same "look" or goal that i am after in tuning my car.. so to me yeah a car is a car... but asking for someones opinion of my car who thinks 17's are cool (no offense) is silly since i think they are ghey on an econobox civic.. |

I think they look quite nice. Much better than your old rims, and lighter too. Good tire choice too

white rims, especially on a red car, are incredibly tacky...
