17 or 18 inch black rims would look amazing, i plan on getting some blacks for my silver civic

On the silver I am all for black or gunmetal, as 'imfrom7thGEN' said, 17s or 18s would look the best.

ASA-AR1s
Racing Sparko in Black
and others, alot comes down to your spoke preferences for number and layout. I personally like 5 and 7 spoke wheels, however, many folks like the 'more is better' spoke rule.

My buddy has 18" Enkei RS7s the anthracite color (AKA gunmetal) on his silver 7thgen and it looks pimp. I think silver car with black or gunmetal rims=friggin sexy. I like a silver or crome lip too

^^^Now the "Silent Killer" needs some beefier brakes.

Black rims with polished/machined lips look good IMHO. Gunmetal black with polished lips looks good too.
