Need Help Picking Out Some Rims--I'm going CRAZY

Ok here's the deal guys. I've got way too many options to pick out on Rims so I'd like some help narrowing it down. Please make suggestions! My price range is $800-$1100 on the Rims w/ Tires.

My Car:

02 Civic Coupe White EX
Altezza Grill
Kaminari Body Kit
30% Black to Chrome Fade Tints
Apexi N1 Exhaust
OEM Spoiler


What rims should I get! I think I like the idea of silver rims better than white due to the Tints...but I'm still open to White Rims! Please post your opinions and if you can, a quick pic of the Rim...if not, I'll look it up...I haven't seen many of these Rims IRL cuz I live in CT (none likes to make there cars around here look nice).

Thanks in Advance

If you like the mr 7 check out the Maxxim Baang it is made by konig. It looks like the 3 peice konig tantrum. Also I like the ADR Ryver rs6 and the Konig toxxin.

Well, it would help to know what your taste in wheels is. Some basic questions...

How many spokes? 5? 6? 7? etc..
Do you want a *bling* *bling* chrome look, or something racy?
Do you like wheels with a lot of fancy spokes or clean and straight?

Actually looking for in between "bling bling and racey"...a shiny silver but not chrome [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]. I like straight and clean but I dont little spokes...they have to have substance to them...but not so much substance that they look like they are stock rims [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG].

I am picky!

i just love white rims on a white car... you should just go get a couple magazines, look through websites and see what rims stand out to you. there are so many different types but only a few stand out. just narrow down your choices, one by one. i personally like my rims to stand out as you said, not look like stock wheels. i like something unique unlike your regular c5s, c2s so my choice was between focal f5 and focal f10. i know the f5s are 5 spoke but there arent any other rims that have the cuts in them.
