Rep Power: 399 They look cartoonish to me, but my stance on enormous wheels is well known.
The brake comment... yeah, thats true, not to mention 20" wheels make 10" rotors look dumb as ****. Do yourself 2 favors.... get bigger brakes so your car stops without overheating the brakes, and fill your wheel up with something.

Rep Power: 295 Thanks everyone. For the sponsorship, Axis doesn't give out full sponsorships, only partial. So I only paid $800 for them. And yea I definately need a big brake upgrade for sure. Hopefully soon I'll get it. And yea my car is garage kept. I drive it around every now and then.

Rep Power: 0 Blackbullet its obvious you're a respected member judging from the amount of posts in such little time. I think anyone who does something different to their civic is pleasing to my eye, rice or not. rjsowcky had a nice willwood brake kit for sale, wish I could of took it off his hands, too bad I had already spend money on aem rotors all around.

Rep Power: 0 your car is probably the one show car on here that I thought was done very tastefully, right color combo, audio, interior, but i'm gonna have to say that those look way too big, the last rims you had fit your car perfectly. Will you get extra points for bigger wheels at shows? sorry mind my ignorance...haha

Titanium Metallic. You got a problem with that?

Rep Power: 326 I kinda agree with 1sikEM2. I applaud the fact for going all out with the show, and especially with the choice of rims. That alone should be applauded. I love the Reverbs, esp since they have the "Hollow Spoke Tech" thing going on. However, iono, it might just be my taste that they look slightly overdone especially in regards in matching the fender wells. The front looks alright, but Im not feeling the back. I think the Reverbs in 19s would have been the perfect fit, just like your Se7en Mods were.
Either way . . . still gotta love it. I like the color flow better with these tho.

Rep Power: 271 I always said 20's could be done, our wheel wells are freeking huge compared to the size of our car......but every time I found a 7th gen with 20's it looked like crap......You are the first to make this setup work.....can't wait to see some glamour shots.....nice work.

Rep Power: 344 Looks hot. Even if they weren't 20" in diameter the rim design is classic. I think it's pretty obvious you sacrificed this car's daily drivability in favour of show a long time ago, so in looking at it just as a show car, I'm in awe. Hell if I could fit 20's on my ride too I would but I can't afford a daily driver so my "show" car still has to take the beatings a daily driver would, and where I work I stress even having 19's. Props on the sponsorship and the nice rims.
