Take a look at these rims....

These are the rims i'm considering for my car...RIMS!
Scroll down a bit, and you'll see em.

Money's not really a problem cause I'll be saving up all winter, so If anyone has any rims that you think I'd like, post em here...


Heck, post em just for show, who can find the best rims?

If you're going chrome, here you go:

Niche F-16 (available in correct 4 X 100 Civic pattern)
19 X 7.5 inch = part #M82197549P0A
18 X 7.0 inch = part #M82187049P0A


Elite "Barb" 18 X 7 inch 42mm offset
4 x 100 = part #E97987049P0A

Whoa, i like those....

Yeah Snort, i know what ya mean, those first ones are my faves as well...


I'm not sure whats so bad about chrome? I mean, you can't say that it'll look that bad on a black Civic!

I suppose it's a matter of taste as well...my friend put 17's on his, and they were just kind of a dull silver...sure, you knew they were RIMS, but they didnt look that hot.

I want something that makes people think "Whoa, that guy must have a lot of money to be driving a...wait....oh...it's a Civic..."

Get the drift sorta? Anyway, thanks for the input, keep it coming.

Yeah, i like those Snort, i dont know about the double-spoke thing happenin' there tho...I'm thinking of a 5 spoke...it's what I'd prefer. What's curbing? How do you curb your rims...or rather, how do I NOT?

None of them.............maybe polished, but not chrome. By the way, isn't Chrome hard to maintain in areas that have harsh winter's due to the salt and other road debris?

curbing usually happens when you parallel park your car. what happens is u back up too close the the curb and if you hit the curb...you rims will get scratched, and taht's called "curbing" your rimz. to avoid it...just learn your distance from your car and the curb by looking at the side mirrors, and don't take sharp turns. i've seen some stupid people drive over a curb on a corner and their rims just get ****ed up.
