Looking to get some new rims, have questions
2000 Honda Civic Ex 2dr
I currently have 17" Liquid Metal rims. And I'm trying to find one replacement rim, they're discontinued and that'll cost me around $200-$250 to get my one slightly bent rim repaired (repair+shipping). Now I've been looking around and seen some nice new sets for only $400-$500. I was thinking I might as well just buy a new set period. And if I wanted to upgrade to 18" would that be too big for my car, as in would it just look to big?
What do you think looks best?
17" ADR Battle Exe Silver
17" ADR Battle Exe Gunmetal
17" ICW RB1 Gunmetal
I can find them without tires so that's not a problem.
Would any gunmetal finish show scratches more easily than silver?

If you could get the 2nd ones in 16"s thatd be prime, but 17"s would do too. I like all three, but the 2nd are my favorite, then the 3rd, then first.
