need opinion

used to have a 93 civic, but i just bought a black 01 ex and i think i now have a car worth putting some wheels on. or atleast it looks good enough to deserve wheels, the whole speed thing is always up for debate. I'm thinking either these enkei zr2's
or...
motegi mrm's

let me know what you think.

Between these two I would choose the second one. It looks kind of funky being two-toned but when it's rollin' I bet it would look a lot better since it has what looks like a polished lip.

are their certain brand wheels your not considering buying? you should look into adr/rs-limited/velox/ and those other affordable wheels companies. if you got money... theirs always those japanese tuner wheels

well i don't have money, or atleast a large amount of it, the enkeis are kind of plain, just liked that rounded out look on the inside corners a lot, i never thought about the spinner-misperception on the motegis. i get enough **** from people who think my dad bought my car, plus them thinking i have spinners too, suppose I will reconsider. right on for the websites. i saw some people referring to type-r rims on a sedan early.... hp's sedan i think... they looked pretty nice, not sure if those are jdm or what.

...i wish this guy in the cube next to me would stop rapping in the office...

I like both rims. I have 5 spoke wheels on my car, and most people tell me they look too plain but I don't really care. I say you get the one you like.

I like the look of the Enkei (each his own). The thing I don't like is the weight. That thicker style of spoke rim seems to be heavy. I don't like the thin spoke rims on our cars. They look too covered wagon . Whatever that means. Just my .02 cents.
