Alright so I cracked one of my rims running a 40 series tire, and since the wheel is long since discontinued, and I cant find one anywhere.. I'll have to get new rims... and I've narrowed it down to these three...

A.



B.


C.


for this car...


THANKS

Honestly, none. A is overdone, B is ugly, and C won't look much different.

first off i say paint the side moldings, door handles and mirrors silver, remove the fogs, get BOH and drop the car more or drop it period. Than consider the wheels, i would do black with chrome lip even though its played out

black is played out.....gold would look hideous....silver will look nice but as adam ssaid..... drop it, and paint all the black

haha.. alright BOH are going on next weekend, I can't go lower espec. since I want a lip kit for later, and I can't see spending like 100 bucks to paint the trim peices and mirrors.. I am kindof leaning towards the silver..... oh yeah and the fogs are coming off next weekend too

black is played, gold would be weird, but the silver would be the best of the three i guess

I am certainly in a predicament... maybe ill just hold out in the F/S thread.. then I'll make a decision..

My civic looks exactly like yours (2004 SSM VP) and I have rims that look like A. Yeah I know black w/polished lip has been played out, but they do bring out the black on the side molding, door handles, etc..

Kevbotron

iTrader: (1)

true that's what I was thinking... you gonna lower yours?

No plans to drop it anytime soon. I just sold my 17" rims and put on a set of 15" rims. I drive about 500 miles each week for work, so I wanted it to ride smoother and also wanted tires that would last longer than 30,000 miles. I went with another set of black w/polished lip rims, just in a smaller size.
Once the car is paid off, I might drop it and put some 17" back once I have another daily driver. Most everyone that I have talked with said that their car rode rough after a drop and I drive too much to have a rough ride.

Your car will look very similar to this

A + BOH for sure, then you can leave all the trims black

A is best look for your car silver on silver is soooo boring!

def not B.

wtf is with so many ppl saying not gold....B is the best choice IMO. Theres a silver civic with rims similar to those and it looks hot, its a coupe with no gap tho. I can't find which site it was on....its either on IP or EM.


Found it:

The easiest way to decide is to go to the Discount Tire site and use their "showcase" to view the rims on your car.
The Enkei PKR looks very similar to the black rim that you have as a choice.


Here is your car with the Enkei PKR. I have these on mine.
