Go here for chrome pics

No Chrome wheels look good!!

Go for gunmetal or black or silver

Chrome is what you put on some ghetto cruzer with 22's!!!

people always are hating on vics w/ chrome wheels, but I've got them

the right style wheel looks good, I'll look for pics

Blahman2 12-09-2004 12:47 PM

If done properly, white looks good.

chrome never looks good on a civic! What are you thinking?

djspot 12-09-2004 12:56 PM

look at my pics in my profile...and honestly I SWEAR!!! lol those pics dont do the car no justice, it actually looks very aggressive in person...and it looks way better (the rims)....

but I suggest if you go with chrome go for 18 or 19's...anything smaller may give off a "cluttered" effect

chrome = something you would put on a 1970 ford ranchero or something. NOT A VIC

Keet 12-09-2004 12:59 PM

Hold on, I'll post mine in uh... about two years when I can afford them :P
The wheels are just another part of the whole car's style, and obviously if the style is ugly to you then so are the wheels. But I still like some bling.
Chrome has always been around and always will remain, but mostly look nicer on the big old whales.

I don't think they look that good on NA Civics... I think they look better on the versions that we don't get because there is a lot of chrome on the sides and stuff...

djspot 12-09-2004 01:03 PM

here you go...

See, chrome rocks, whos getting babes???^^

djspot 12-09-2004 01:13 PM

LOL ^^^^

Im really not into chrome rims so to speak...I just thought these would flow wit the whole look of my car the best....I think the key to chrome wheels is to keep it as SIMPLE as possible...and u cant get much more simple than those mr7's

2K1Civic17"Gabe 12-09-2004 01:15 PM

My car looks much better in person. Everybody may hate chrome, but almost every single day I get compliments on my car. Apparently people do like chrome. Just because people on a website dont like it, doesnt mean it should affect anybody elses opinions. Girls happen to LOVE chrome, BTW.

edit- djspot - Im going for more of a black look over the next couple months. Getting new headlights for X-Mas, and maybe new grills? than Im going for a black/chrome rim. maybe black and polished silver or whatever its called?

djspot 12-09-2004 01:41 PM

right now I cant see what colour your car is cuz Im at work...fukin' firewall..lol...

but if I had a black civic, I'd go all black...Altezza grill, black housing projectors, 18 inch high gloss black rims with polished lip....that would look retarded!!!!

my dad hates chrome rims, but he loves my car...lol...I've had some serious gear heads, ANTI-Chrome be like "I gotta give it up, it looks soo good", and yeh the ladies love it...seeing a car in person is a different story than in pics, I've seen some really nice cars in pics but then in person they really dont look that good...and like my car in pics it just doesnt do it justice...

2k3kansasEX 12-09-2004 01:47 PM

most girls are stupid! you could put chrome rims on pinto and the chicks would dig it! no offense to the lovley 7th gen chicks though!

2K1Civic17"Gabe 12-09-2004 02:53 PM

I have a white car. I dont want a polished Lip, I want 5 spoke some sort of black rims, with black/silver spokes. I think black looks the nicest with white. I dont agree with lots of other colors/black though. So what if most girls are stupid. the 7thgencivic girls dont seem to be like most though.

diskreet 12-09-2004 03:20 PM

chrome attracts walking std's not clean babes... sorry.

2K1Civic17"Gabe 12-09-2004 04:34 PM

Ive attracted virgins in my car

Cjddrum1 12-09-2004 04:44 PM

Chrome looks very good if done right on a civic, im not talking about 'dem dubz yo' but some 18 inch chrome rims can look good but then again can look very ricey

djspot 12-09-2004 04:49 PM

LOL, your crappy chromes fault! Ive seen like 4 chrome rims on this site, and how many black?? 2,000+. I cant believe how many people try to talk crap and call chrome rice. Nobody is being original with gunmetal rims. Lots of chrome are rice, like the swirly crazy ugly designs, mine are very simple. The pics make them have a lot more bling than they actually have.

If you had black rims like every other person on this site, you could have screwed all the girls that like black rims. No STDs there. :_doh:
