Talking Ok... NEED HELP CHOSING RIMS... My car is well... Different :D
Ok... Now, What I mean by different is... The Color.

I have the "old ladys" color, The Shoreline Mist or w/e you call it.

The problem I' am facing is deciding what rims will look the best on with the color car I have.

One of my friends father knows the owner of
http://www.victoriatire.com and can get me REALLY good prices on all the wheels they have on their website. Here is the link for our car

http://www.victoriatire.com/w_car_se...13&MAKE=HONDA&

Can you guys plz pick out a rim that will look the best on my car? I will then do a photochop to see if it look ok or not. lease:

Here is what my car looks like:

whatever wheels you go with, i would suggest getting them in gunmetal, preferrably without a machined lip. imo, that would look very nice with the shoreline mist paintjob.

With these wheels, what color theme you shooting for? Beige and black (or smoked)? I think your ride would look t!ts with these rims and a nice CF hood.
