Crashed the civic, but Im getting it back soon. Its going to be stored away for winter, but Im looking for new shoes in Spring. I want OEM Wheels, but not sure what ones. Any honda or acura wheels that will fit.........If someone could chop a bunch of different ones, it would sure help me decide. Oh, you can always chop aftermarket wheels too........but I want 15's or 16's, like rotas or something. Thanks fellas!

pleaseee tell me your not replacing those ones you have on cause those look fucckin amazing and the chops will look kinda unrealistic with the grass coverin the bottom parts of the rim.. it takes to long to make it look behind the grass like

I was thinking about get some 16" rotas, but some people are so against them.

EH the ones I have now look good but the 40 series tire is killing me. Kinds rides rough, and the rims are "Excel"........cheap brand........they bend easily on potholes and etc. The steering wheel shakes at high speeds and I cant stand it. They have been balanced over and over again, but they suck. I just want some decent looking OEMs. I will end up selling these rims CHEAP.

ohhh
thats ****ty man.. they look really nice.. i'd say go with a sturdy aftermarketbut thats just me im not a fan of oem

RE: Wheels, Wheels, Wheels!
 

I like the SI and LS Meshies, but idk what ones Id like better. I do like aftermarkets too, but the rotas are like 550 by themselves. I can find si or meshie wheels for 500 WITH tires.

RE: Wheels, Wheels, Wheels!
 
hmm well do you have any different pics of your car? that ones kinda iffy to chop rims to to mae look super good cause of the grass i could try it tho

Hey rice are you choppin the van for the chop contest?

I tried messing with it some this morning, but got frustrated...I haven't learned that much with ps yet...I have no idea how you did the things to Peg's ford...changing the body and colors...I still have much to learn. I wanted to try though...I'll keep messing around with it and see...doubtful I can come up with anything worth showing to others though

I'd say 15's on your car would be good. I was going to recommend LS wheels before I even saw that you suggested them. [8D] Si wheels will look too clunky on your car IMO. Maybe GSR blades?

mybrokenblinker 10-20-2007 09:42 PM

RE: Wheels, Wheels, Wheels!
 
and i'm pretty sure you can find 15" rotas for 425 shipped.

Pete 10-20-2007 11:16 PM

RE: Wheels, Wheels, Wheels!
 
Yea 425 without tires. I think I want LS Meshies!Can someone chop LS meshies on? Thanks!!!!!!!!

I'd say get the SI wheels. Here is what my car looked like before I sold it. I wish I would have kept the wheels.

I saw an eg in town the other day rockin the oem BMW wheels...I think they look good. Its at least not what you normally see on a civic (at least I dont)

Im up between the si wheels and the ls meshies. The 99-00 si wheels, not the first chop of the 5 lug si wheels that wont fit. :D

RE: Wheels, Wheels, Wheels!
 
Get the SI's. They're easier to keep clean.:D

LS meshies would be the cats meow. [8D]
