My first thought is that I'd like a solid color or finish ... not multi colored... Saw a pic of them here: http://www.clubcivic.com/board...36704

I'm not sure what they'll look like on a coupe ... I'll wait for the pics.

Post away!

hmm i cant find a pic with a car with it though. if anyone could find one with it on a car. also i wanna kno the real brand that provides these rims. i think instead only the lip being neo chrome, the entire rim is pretty mch like that. hopefully someone here knows what i am talking about. ??

^ They would match the GReddy exhaust...

But seriously. It's enough that chrome wheels look like fairy snowflakes. This is really pushing it.

I haven't seen this finish in person, and I think that they look more bright and colorful than they would installed on a car because they are throwing some intense light on it for the photos (I could be wrong, seems that way to me). I think that the Gram Lights would look better because it is only the lip, not the whole thing.

Still not a fan though, but that just means they won't be going on my car. on.

I've not embraced the colored exhaust tip look but the wheels are worse -MOFUGLY.

the burned chrome look is ugly and should be reserved for cheap, chrome coated, header(s)

Yeah... come on guys.... keep it clean... i dont wanna hear or see anyone saying well this is for ..... whites/blacks/spanish/immigrants/jews/muslims/asians/gays etc...

If something isnt your style... its NOT FOR YOU... but its not fair/nice/"the nico way" to bash people based on their skin, origin, sexual preference...... Bashing people's taste and/or style is another story... keep it classy guys...

Personally, I like em but like LBC said, it's all a matter of personal preference. The G above is my friend's Sandy's car. She and her husband has done a great job with it and I believe a Stillen SC or Vinny Ten turbo setup is next on the menu :naughty:

Here's more pics of it form the Carlisle show:
