Rota Grid Colors??

Okay, So I went to the wheel shop today and found out that the Rota Grids came in.

now I need your opinion on what color to get.
My car is nighthawk black coupe.
The shop has the bronze, black w/ silver lip, gunmetal w/ silver lip, and plain silver.

Also, they are selling the package deal for 1200$ 16's and 1500$ 17's. w/ yokohama rubbers. Do you guys think this is too much for Rota's??

I Live in Guam so I guess you guys in the mainland find these prices to be too steep.

If the prices you're quoting are shipping and duties in, then it's not so bad...it IS pretty high though. Go for bronze btw.

Hell yes, unless those are expensive tires. I paid $462 for my 15" Slipstreams shipped, my tires were $204 shipped (Falken Ze512s), and I paid $70 or something to have them mounted and balanced.

I bought my rims NEW from the 7thgencivic member JDMCivic514. I don't know if he's still here or not, tho. He was setting up a store online or something. He hooked me up with a sweet deal. They're not even that cheap on eBay (don't forget to add shipping). Try PM'ing or emailing him for the hookup on Rota wheels. I got awesome service and fast shipping.

btw, a local store around here wanted like $700 or $800 for the wheels. I was like no thanks.
