ctr wheels w/pics.

So my brother has these wheels on his white Ep3. This is not my car just a picture of the rims that my brother wants to sell me. I have a NHBP civic...thoughts on how these would look on a NHBP?

For NHBP I don't think white rims would match. If you're going to powdercoat I'd do them in a gunmetal. FD2 CTRs use gunmetal rims as opposed to white, and it looks great.

Actually, you're both right. The '02-03 EP3 was 4-lug. The '04-05 EP3 was 5-lug.
