New Rims... Your Opinion

Hi Fellas I would like to know what rims would look good on my NHBP Ex. I want to go for a clean look, nothin too overly flashy, any opinions? Please list rim name, tpye, and size you think would look the best.

If you dont want too flashy I go with with DC5 rims. Or the EP3 Type-R Rims if you could find them.

Enkei RPM2's Look nice as hell though

Does anyone know what different finishes the RPM2's are available in? I think these would look incredible in polished black...

So clean means non-jdm now? I had no idea.

And he's right, there are a million threads like this.

Sorry if I am being a little unclear, I just don't want my car to look like everyone else's. I wasn't saying that I wanted black rims I was asking if they came in any different finishes...for example black. And I wasn't saying anything about JDM not being "clean" I think that the "JDM" type civics look nice but its not the look that I want. Sorry for rockin' the boat I just wanted your opinions not your criticisms

Theres a million threads like this because different people want different looks. Some want opinions about what rims look JDM. Some want rims that look good in chrome. Theres no reason for him not to start a new thread if he has a different look hes going for. I dont think one thread is ruining your 8thcivic.com experience to such an extent that you need to bag on a guy asking for help. My $0.02

I just dont feel the point of the forum is to bash people who need help. Thats what TOV and Yahoo! Chat Rooms are for. I come here to get help with my car, help other with thier car, or just bullshit around. Not to talk sh*t to people just because I have a different idea of how 8th Gens should look.

+1, Most of the well made wheels are made in japan, so I assume you're looking for some knock-offs or some bling wheels.

Good call
im basically in the same boat as far as rims go, man. i want a clean look (dont care if its JDM or DTM) just something clean. I dont want to spend too much because it will be my wifes car. Enkeis are light so thats a plus!
