They're painted. The only one that didn't turn out so well was the one with some curb rash, but it's acceptable. Got rims, got rings. Next step is to work on the center caps. I don't know if Honda makes one that will fit these rims. If not, I can use the Flik ones and simply have one of my cute artist friends paint the Honda logo on them. I'm not that talented. Once the rims are 100%, the drums and calipers will be painted black too and I'll be ready to install.

 

My god, looks like crud.


























J/K, came out really nice, and good call on the drums, i didnt even think about thouse.
As i look at the hole where the center cap will go, the more i thinka OEM cap will fit.

 

at least you said black for the drums and calipers

 

pics on car please!
looks good

 

Stu, ask and you shall receive...
The weather is somewhat nice today so I test fit a rim. Results:









And a little stance...


The stock lug nuts fit mostly, but I sacrificed some paint because the lug wrench was too big. Looks like I have to get some "tuner" lugs...

[ninja edit] I had hoped the bigger rims would look... bigger... but now I guess suspension is next. It looks like poop on wheels with the 3" gap.

 

Well, looks like you're going to have to get a lowered suspension set up!!

If you get snow ever (6+ inches at a time) I suggest regular or full coilovers.
If no snow, lowering springs ftw!

And don't forget shocks too.

 

lookin' sharp!

 

It doesn't snow much here anymore. We just get rain and ice with the occasional tornado. I'll probably just put some coilovers on it. Dunno if I wanna do shocks yet.

 

Well, if you drop anything more than 1 inch (okay maybe 1.5 inches) you'll need new shocks as you old ones WILL blow. I suggest just getting it done at all once. It hurts the wallet initially, but it's well worth it.

 

I probably won't be adjusting the suspension, so would lowering springs suffice?
