So, do they?

they are too slightly off, I think they would look better on a white TSX with more intentional contrast, ya know. its almost like wearing a jean jacket that is just slightly different denim than the jeans on your pants.
either go exact match or contrast it.

i dont think they look bad but getting rid of the chrome trim would make them look better.

It clashes ... both with the color and the chrome. Believe me, I have these wheels and some days I'm not too sure about them myself on my own car, so much so that I'm still contemplating powdercoating to change the color somewhat, but have not yet decided which way to go (darker or lighter).

You also need to drop that summ-ama-btch. Lowering springs at least. I never quite get upgraded wheels on an otherwise bone-stock car, unless it's already a performance oriented car (ie Evo, Scubie, Type-R etc).

But that's just me.

Nice neighbourhood though.

Hmm, well, I guess I have to keep them for awhile lol, but sometimes I think they clash, and sometimes I think they look awesome, I guess my mind won't ever really be made up...

Yeah, something just doesn't look right to me, either. I think it's both the color and the chrome. Just doesn't quite go together.

Tangoman

I think they look pretty damn unique, but I think in some lights, they don't look as good as I would have hoped (but they still look decent).

Alright, thanks for your help guys.

But that thing needs a drop badly

BTW are those 17's cuz those tires look kinda meaty.

I thought the HFP wheels only came in 18's?

Tangoman

No, they are optional 17" or 18"

I went back and fourth between the two sizes, but I just didn't have the money to spring for the 18inchers (since I would have needed new tires, and 18in XL load rated tires are 30 percent more than 17inch XL load rated tires..)

My buddy has those on his Civic Si sedan in that color and it looks AWESOME! Honestly, i like the wheels and think they would look good if you did two things, one do what CC said and get rid of the chrome, and two, just get a body kit and honestly it will flow much nicer even without a drop

I think it does clash a bit, I think had you not said anything half of the people wouldn't have noticed though. Try blacking out the trim and I'm sure it'll look like they go a bit better. Love the rims though.

electrical tape does wonder ....tape up those chrome see if you like it or not

Tangoman

Sounds like a good idea, doesn't 3m sell some sort of blackout tape?

ruffellprefley
