I drove on steelies for a while cuz I was just in a bad mood. It was like that for months.

Then I ended up dropping the car and was like wow... looks better.

I eventually put back on the hubcaps because the steelies turned gray and I was shocked out my *** how good the car looked with the hubcaps on.

It's your choice. If you don't care how your wheels look or you just wanna see how cool black rims match your ride, then do it. I wouldn't dis the hubcaps (unless you own an 01-02 DX/LX cuz those are fugly). At least the 01/02 EX hubs look similar to the Si alloys. Have them off long enough and you'll eventually put them back on unless you plan to change your wheels.

They ARE gay, but I think steelies look gayer unless you just use them for racing or winter.

Well if you had a black civic I would say go for it, but if its any other color then I say forget it. It makes your car look like someone jacked your rims or something LOL

Those silver ones are prone to rusting just as the black ones are. Mine have begun to rust. Just keep them on.
