06 Si Sedan

n8ssi · 10-18-2007, 09:05 PM

I just changed the rims to the lighter 06 color. I loved them on my 06 Si coupe and after I traded it for the Si Sedan the darker rims never did it for me. In real life the difference is night and day IMO. What do you guys think?

06 Rims

07 Rims...

What are you asking?

n8ssi · 10-18-2007, 09:25 PM

Just looking to see what you guys think is all. No big thing.

I Vtec, do you? · 10-18-2007, 09:29 PM

Yeah you're right.. it looks pretty substantial. I like the lighter ones on your car as well.

02civicsi · 10-18-2007, 09:33 PM

Sorry no go for me because I like dark wheels.

Thats cool, I think you'll really like the 08's Wheels, those are even darker than the 07's.

CatScratched · 10-18-2007, 09:46 PM

Yeah, I think the lighter rims work with the Figi. I had no idea there was that stark a difference...

Too late I replaced my FA5 OEM's with 17x8 Motegi Traklites(flat black) two weeks after I bought the car. What I want is the new shiftboot.

Are you sure? I looked on the website and I don't see any red stitching.

n8ssi · 10-19-2007, 01:25 AM

Positive. It looks to be in 2 pieces (ours are 4), sewn together right up the middle on either side with red stiching.

taffy07si · 10-19-2007, 06:38 PM

These look WAY better than the 08's shift boot!!

02civicsi · 10-19-2007, 06:48 PM

Yeah it does but there is a huge price differnce.

this is probably the best looking shift boot out there. (crappy pic in messy car but still).
and its actual leather not vinyl crap like the OEM.

the OEM non red stitchign boot from the 06-07 is $32.

***Izzy*** · 10-19-2007, 06:52 PM

The 2006 wheels match your car much better than the dark ones.

Dang that does look good.

BOT - I'm going to the stealership tomorrow so I'll take a look at the wheels on the '08's.

KenB · 10-19-2007, 08:29 PM

+2 for the lighter rims.

rp215 · 10-21-2007, 05:36 PM

***GETxERxDONE*** · 10-21-2007, 05:54 PM
