Umm, OEM wheels are generally silver. I'm not trying to be an @$$, just to understand type of design are you looking for. How much do you want to spend?? I can probably help you, as I bought wheels about 2 months ago, having spent 3 months looking at hundreds of wheels.

Rep Power: 265 LOL! sorry had to laugh . . . gunmetal/hyper black is not an "oem" appearance, they could be considered the clean look if done well.
if you want oem appearance, go get the '00 civic si/'03 civic wheels (ex) or
i beleive '04 (ex) and the '05 civic wheels (ex). the '04 and '05 have that gunmetal tint look . . .

Rep Power: 0 k, well obviously you guys are thinking way to hard...
guess i have to rephrase what i want...
OEM "style" rims, that I can get in either Gunmetal or HyperBlack.
I can spent up to $1500 for Rims
So, as DaSilverCivic mentioned.... Yes, I can get SI wheels but, from the dealer they cost like $800 and ONLY come in silver. So.. let me re-phrase my question towards you...
DaSilverCivic, Would you happen to know of any rims that would resemble the SI wheels in Gunmetal or Hyperblack?

Rep Power: 0 If you want Si wheels you can get them way cheaper on Wheels&Caps.com
They build exact replica wheels. I believe the maker is Keystone. I got 99-00 Wheels from them for around $420 shipped. The only difference is the center cap..It doesn't have the H on it

Rep Power: 265 jsmith, unfortunately i dn't know of any that would resemble the si rims in black/gunmetal. mayb you can buy used and powdercoat them?? just a thought. i personally like the '04/'05 wheels. like i said they kinda have that gunmetal tint. i think it would look clean if your car was lowered too with them on.
on a sidenote, ever try looking at rota slipstreams?? i just purchased them in flat black and spent around 600 new w/tires. comes in 15" and 16".

lol id stick to the Honda Factory Performance wheels for the 7th gen since they are OEM. They are 16" and come in split 7 spoke (I have these), and 5 spoke.
handaaccessories.com and you can see them both.
