whats so special about 17's? 18's arent that bad =| i guess it varys on what you make out of your civic.

but get whatever rims fits you best. buying something so other people can go "ohh and ahh" is useless.
IMO, if i had a rally red civic, i'd go with black or gunmetal rims with a polished lip. chrome would work too

awww...i want to get chromes on my RR civic. =( i think those look hot on our cars....but if ur looking to go fast....don't get chromies. but...i think a nice clean chrome would be good....noothing w/ a billion spokes or anything. white is always nice, but .... kinda getting played out...hmm....but yeh..i don't like black on it..cause it just looks like TOO much i think.

Black or gunmetal 17's or 18's with a polished lip work well for a red car. White is a common choice as well, I wouldn't bother with a polished lip for those though. Split 5 spoke would look nice. Hence Rota Subzero, much of the Tenzo line would look real good IMO.

But the Rota Circuit 8's look just like them.

They are sweeet...plus would be easy to keep looking nice, considering the lack of paved roads in the hood.


the hood lol, we are not very uptown. hahaha

Drag Wheels

I am feelin the new Drag brand wheels. They have some new light weight wheels that weight 17lbs each and are pretty cheap, they are the DR-9,and DR-8. They are cast which isnt the best way to go, but forged wheels are way more expensive. I n gunmetal they are sweet.
