    Default black enkei or white enkei

    ok, so i have a spare enkei that the previous owner curbed up and got to thinkin about painting it. it was a black enkei j10, with a machined polished lip. 15 inch. i painted it white with a few layers of clear coat. left the lip polished and also painted the jdm writing blue.

    should i paint the rest white or leave em black?!?!?! all comments welcome.
    pics suck, sry. camera phone ftl
    reps to all opinions












    light makes it look a little off...but its white

    also, cant decide to use the center caps or buy some polished honda center caps if i did paint them..

    White...

    But they look kinda small.

    Is it just me, or do most Honda guys go for 16" or something?

    I think Honda's are better-suited with 17's.

    ya, 16s are much better on tegs in my opinion but 15s is what i got to work with. lol. i traded my 16 inch mb drift wheels for these, oh well. if i lowered my car some more it looks better.

    I'd say just go for what you want because what eva color the rims are, your not taking anything from your car. they both look great on that car. If I had to make a choice I'd say white, because it brings out the paint and pulls some attention to your rims. gl with what you do and see you at the varsity.
