Comment on my rims, please.

si_civic · 08-07-2006, 11:29 PM

I am going to purchase these rims at a killer $135 each (17x7)

Would this go good on a Tafetta-white 2007 Civic Si ?

Yes, I don't have the car until before Christmas. :)

They look like what everyone has in Enkei. I want Konig sideways. That is just my opinion. To each his own! Good luck!

sfccrx · 08-08-2006, 12:27 AM

mmmmmmmmmm..............Motegi.

CMByrd · 08-08-2006, 12:34 AM

I think theyll look good on white.

blck06si · 08-08-2006, 12:54 AM

most played out rim of this decade next to the focal f5's.

please do something different bro.

larryd · 08-08-2006, 01:07 AM

I used to have them in gunmetal on my Eclipse a few years back, loved em.

Scourge · 08-08-2006, 01:11 AM

I had them on my 7th gen Civic. They looked good on black. I sold the Civic and let my friend borrow them. They looked good on silver. I'm sure they'll look good on white too.

Problem is, these wheels are HEAVY. The lack of power in my old Civic made this very noticeable.

YAAA. I just saw the weight specs holy man. 24.5lbs each ? Thats 100 lbs of wheel. Wonder what the stock wheels weigh.

I know they're the most played-out rim in history, but when you come from a town where no one has these cars, and the only done-up cars are a few Silvias and Skylines (rich f**ckers) then it'll be ok.

sexay!

BLU BY U · 08-08-2006, 09:18 PM

vey_z · 08-09-2006, 01:57 AM

JeShUa · 08-09-2006, 02:19 AM

get gold

aki · 08-10-2006, 05:08 PM

Suckers weigh a ton, I suggest going for a different wheel. I went with Rota SDRs, which weigh 18lbs.

nexson · 08-10-2006, 05:35 PM

their nice, but nowadays everything has a lil lip, thats why I think of these as old school, but yet I still like em, good luck!

tennisfan16 · 08-10-2006, 07:11 PM

i think they look pretty good.

Actually the lip is getting old (i thought it was passe the moment it got popular) already. Non lip wheels are more timeless.

To me lip = Knight Rider from the 80s.

si_civic · 08-10-2006, 08:11 PM

Can anyone explain what this "lip" means?

Is that where the spokes branch out?

Danizer · 08-11-2006, 02:22 AM

great deal!

aznchzexr · 08-11-2006, 07:14 AM
