Five star version of Option A or C or a five star version of the Varrstoens. Later, QD.

i've got a pair of the 5 stars sitting in my closet still in the box. For some reason, i absolutely hate them. I know thats a common choice, but opened the box and gagged.

Are those really common? All I ever see are 6 and 7 spokes. Which, to me, make ME gag, lolol. I have always, always (since the mid 80's when I had my first pair) loved 5 star wheels. Later, QD.

i like 5 spoke wheels, i just dont like the concave bent 5 star look from that style of wheel. it looks melted or something, i really hate it. The ones i have are Rotas and they look disgusting in person.

D might be what i go with, i like C the best... but C only comes in the size "OMFG ROLLZ UR FENDERS AND CAMBER IT YO" The smallest size available in 18 would stick out 25m more than my current front wheels. Like this picture below. Granted..... i'm not scared to run rubber band tires and could probably make them fit better than he did. Those are 265s out back. his front tires are larger than my current rear tires.

The rear i can work with.... i dont mind sporting a drag look out back.

I sorta agree with the concave wheels and I love the NISMO wheels but mesh can look good on just about anything; your Sil40 included.

I honestly don't see your car pulling off the polished look. It's too performance oriented.

At the end of the day though, it's your car so if you like the polished wheels then run it.

The recently posted thread of the red Civic sedan killed the wheels you have now. Although, if my money comes in on time and your wheels are still available, I am gonna snag them.

i agree....... seeing civics with these wheels quickly made me hate them. This is a wheel that only looks good big and wide on a slammed car. They look absolutely horrible in small sizes with big tires.

with the polished wheels id probably go ahead and put on body kit and wing. had them both sitting in garage for over a year.

Do what you do, homie. At the end of the day, you get the luxury to drive the car.

Out of the options given I'd have to choose d. I thought about the matte black varrstoens for my rsx for a while and realized I didn't like them all that much lol
