Yup... cuz in my opinion, they look best on Civics.

No need to post any OEM wheels (2k3 EX wheel, EP3R wheel, Factory Performance Civic EX wheel.)

Gold or gunmetal. Forged of course and very reasonably priced considering they're Rays

Axis Se7en ain't bad... got any more?

Hey your car is lower. The ride height looks near perfectly evened out.

Look at: www.racinghart.com

See if you like any there. I got the Evolutions CPS's, but they are 5 spoke. What color(s) are you thinking?

Any color except bronze/gold/chrome/white.

So that pretty much leaves me preferably with:

Silver, gunmetal, black.

Sizes? 15x6.5, 15x7/16x7/17x7, 17x7.5

S7s and the C2s are the only ones. S7s look ugly IMO. C2s are split 7 spoke... and I didn't even realize it until now (no wonder they look so good). On the other hand, that's the style I'd prefer with 7-spokes but I dunno. I had a friend with those wheels who powdercoated them flat black and left the lip polished and it looked 5 times better than before. However he ended up selling them. That's an option I guess but I'd like to see if there's anything else around that might catch my taste for 7 spokes.

The ADR Intense looks alright but I dunno if I want another set of ADRs. The spoke design is not bad. Hmm...

ADR's Model Elite 4 is a Mugen knock-off. I like them but the design has gotten old.

I dunno... maybe I'll just wait till the 1-piece forged Work Emotion (not the CR) comes out next year.

If they weren't limited edition I'd consider them. I'd just be too paranoid to one day find my car sitting on rocks over wheels.

If you can afford to big ball... these are one of my favorites...

Wedsport SA90
Extremely Rare, Very JDM.
Lightweight Cast (14 lbs), they'll probably run you about $1000 for the set, no tires.
