Default konig heliums

does any one have pictures of a civic with konig heliums. my friend has some silver 15 inch heliums for sale with kumo extas on them. they weigh around 11 pounds so it would be an upgrade from stock at around 19 tons or i mean lbs. i was going for style but yet i dont want to buy something that slows me down. can i get some advice on sizing and weights that yall would recomend. these wheels are at a good price too. wheels and tires for 350. tires have about 80% tread and the wheels are in mint condition. please give me some advice. i would also like to see what they look like on a civic. thanks

lol its sorta funny. well i know the guy who lives across the street. he was outside working on his gas line. so i pull up in his driveway and say hi. he wants me to get out and talk. so i do. we talk for about 20 minutes and he wanted me to come inside and hang out. so i did for about an hour. well i comeback outside. and this is in my neighborhood by the way. so i come outside and im like "dude where's my car" well actually i was sorta pissed. i was like ok this is a funny joke by my dad or something. so i get to lookin around and im like wait what is this i see it sitting across the street and it is slammed against that tree. so when i get down there it is outa gear and the ebrake is like half or 3/4 of the way up. we think that it might have slipped outa gear. idk but i was parked on a hill. i was extremely pissed. but its gettin fixed i will get it back next week.

Haha, ok I was gonna say... I don't even see any skid marks or any kind of attempt to turn. I feel better knowing you wern't in it when that happened. Still sucks dude, good thing it didn't catch any more speed and hit something a little harder, looks like it almost got to the engine and that's when things get really expensive.

It's really weird how dead on it hit the tree... never touched either headlight.

lol well i wish i was in it cause i would have stoped it! but at least i wasnt in it when it hit a tree! it wasnt on so i think thats why the airbags didnt come out. everyone says those get really expensive. but yea the radiator and ac was the only thing it really got to. but my front end was screwed! the right headlight that you see was actually dislocated or what ever. it broke the housing a lil bit on the back side of it. but i had a body shop do all the work. insurance paid for it all. thank the lord i had full coverage!

Oh man, sorry about what happened, that sucks!

Anyway, both of your pictures would have been horrible to work with, so I used Forty's instead. I think it looks good, go for it! (and shine it up real nice too)
