Black Rims

GeorgiaBoy · 01-16-2006, 11:44 PM

What do you guys think of black rims with brushed/chrome trim on my Black Si. I like the look of these.

j3hff · 01-16-2006, 11:46 PM

that would look soooo nice.. if i were you.. id lower the si first

**webby** · 01-16-2006, 11:48 PM

my gosh yes. That would look amazing

acetech808 · 01-17-2006, 02:09 AM

yes those are cool, does it have the right bolt pattern. I'm finding out alot of wheels I've been searching, even tho they say it fits, it must 5-114.3 with atleast 42mm off set to fit right.

I like the look and want the the deeper dish. I think the black will look great, as long as the pearl in the car matches up.

I wanted the bigger lip on a few diffrent wheels and the wheel shops said that the si can't have the deeper look. It's more for rear wheel drive cars.
Let us know how it works out.

I am heading to the rim shop to look at the rims on my car. I have roughly 5 designs and 3 manuf. that I am going to decide on. All of them are balck with the diamond cut lip. I will send pics to see what looks good.

GeorgiaBoy · 01-18-2006, 08:36 PM

you were right. The size shown was an 18x8.5. That is wy they had such a deep dish. And yes the ones displayed are for rear wheel. That rim is new and will be in next tuesday for a mock up before I buy.

Showtime · 04-04-2006, 06:16 AM

will the 18x8.5 fit?? or will there be too much rubbing

Janizary · 04-04-2006, 05:14 PM

Black on black looks great.

***letsgoflyers81*** · 04-04-2006, 05:34 PM

Are there supposed to be pics in the thread? I don't see anything.

larryd · 04-04-2006, 08:22 PM

Here ya go, it's not a civic but its black on black with polished lip.

leviathan18 · 04-05-2006, 12:29 AM

look at the c4r from racing hart

DeezSi06 · 04-05-2006, 12:47 PM

i just bought some 5 star rims, black with a aluminum lip
its about a 1.5-2 inch dish.
the rims are
18x8.5
The guys at the rim shop think it will fit, so im going to be a guniea pig
Ill let you know how it works out.
I did a little research and alot of rsx-s use a 18x8.5
so i think it'll be fine..
They get installed monday, so maybe i can get a real cam and post some real pics of my car...

skittleslegend · 04-05-2006, 01:58 PM

18x8.5 will be fine...

...until you lower it. The RSX, if I'm mistaken has wider fenders than the Civic. Ask Neal @ TireRack.com and make sure you ask him if they'll fit when it's lowered.

GeorgiaBoy,

I don't see the pic of the rims.

**CameronJr9** · 04-05-2006, 02:30 PM

That Celica is sexy! I like that polished rim look.

djspins · 04-05-2006, 03:02 PM
