I like the Vador/A-Specs the best. Have you considered the RJ Servo? It look similar to the Enkei RP03 I believe. Whatever you get is going to look pretty big as none of those rims have a lip to speak of.

You haven't been around much and I pretty much and only around at work these days...
Anyhow, I've already stated my preferences...

I say Vador as well. I added up the vote so far and it breaks down as follows: (I assigned 1/2 pt each for people who voted for two-what is this, the presidential election?
)
Vador: 9
Rays Eurostar: 6.5
RonJon: 2
Enkei: 1.5
This should have been a poll.........
Anyways, part of reason the Vadors might be winning is because it's the best 'chop. It looks more realistic than the others.......

...someone should PS those pics with the car lower to give you a better idea.
As it looks right now, I'd personally choose the Eurostars since it has a better contrast. I HATE silver on silver!

actual pictures
Ok, I did a little more searching and found some actual pics of these wheels on cars...
Nakayama Vador 5 (17") on Accord Coupe:
Enkei RP03 on Acura RSX and 350Z:
I also spoke with someone from Curry Acura. 18" TL A-Spec in gunmetal would cost $1350 shipped. Here is a pic of those wheels on an RSX:
My local shops have never heard of Nakayama, and their dealers don't seem to carry the Enkei RP03. I know I can get both of them online though.
Now what do you think? lol

I don't like the A-Spec. Maybe you could look into the aftermarket TSX Wheels. I think its called the Silver Stars or something like that. IMO, get the Nakayamas or Enkeis. Ever thought about black rims with polished lip? I've seen some on white cars and it looks pretty good.
#29
The gunmetal A-Spec wheel was from the '04 A-Spec package and is 8.5" wide. Curry must have some left over...I don't think that particular pic looks good, but I do think the gunmetal would look good on your white Accord.......

yeah, but I was hoping to make this one a poll. They have it set up so that only a moderator can make it a poll though.
It looks like Vador is kicking butt though!
