I agree with that, but i was looking for specific wheel ideas.

I also think gunmetal w/ a polished lip would look killer too. I really like the Rota J specs, but they only come in 16's.

i have a set of sportmax 941's they come in both gunmetal and black with a polished lip. i think they look great on my silver civic i don't see why it wouldn't look good on a white car. mine are a 16x7 but they do come in a 17x7 if thats the route you wanna go

just wanna look good or do you care about weight, i rock the ADR S07R and i love the look of them, 7 spoke, black face chrome lip, chrome center to offset the black. i went in looking for a super mesh wheel and saw those and fell in love with them.





and just the rim

Man, I dunno if I like a polished lip on an inca pearl. I like the black or a gunmetal.

No offense guys, but i cannot stand all black wheels. I hate when you can't see what the hell kind of wheels are on the car. At least the lip gives it a little bit of light reflection, and allows you to see what kind of wheels are on the car.

Have someone photoshop some wheels onto this picture to give you a better idea of what you want on an actual Inca Gold
