hmm. i do like the color and style, but if u could find them without the polished lip, that'd be hot.

Re: New rims, need your opinion!

dont go bigger than 17s on your civic. The smaller wheel wells make even 17s look huge, so your fine with the size. I LOVE the polished lip. Gogetit! (then paint your callipers/drums and itll look even better when youre on the move!)

I'm definitely painting my calipers when i get the new rims on...i love the way they looked painted red sneaking through the spokes of rims

Re: New rims, need your opinion!

Aren't they too big for a EG?
I mean, won't they damage the suspension??

i like the second ones best. but i wouldn't go bigger than 16's. i have 16's on my 92 hatch, with 205/55/16, and sometimes i wish i went with 15's. just my , but second ones look awesome.


i just realized that the second ones are the rims that i have. the fox sport 2 racing wheels, and they are powdercoated that color, since they originally came in silver finish, like mine.
