having second thoughts about rims i was going to buy - HondaClub.com

bmx-guy · 06-20-2008, 10:29 PM

so i had a set of 18's all lined up that i was going to buy fairly soon, but now i'm having second thoughs...they are 6 spoke same color as my car

but at work i had a nice black rim up to my car and i'm thinking that black would look sick on it...just wondering what the rest of you think

i'm thinking of keeping the ones i have now for winters and then buying new 17's in black and putting the tires that i have right now on the new rims

I am an 18"-20" person but color wise I would go for gunmetal.

well 17's are already pretty rough, and i only just got used to it, i don't wanna have an even rougher ride with bigger rims but less rubber, plus it's cheaper for rims and rubber for 17;s

Depends on your suspension set up as well.

well my car is dropped 2 inches with eibach springs and kyb gr-2 struts but i have the most wheel and rubber i can have, any more and i rub (found that out the hard way haha)

personally I would go with the black rims man

cuz black would look good on your car
but hay thats just what I think

What about a set of Motegi Traklites

bmx-guy · 06-21-2008, 12:05 AM

no if i got motegi i'd get the SP5, that's the style i'm after, black with chrome lip (with the exception of the konigs)
