POLL: Which color wheel for a CGP?

I'm pretty set on getting a set of these AME Tracer FS-01 in 18".

I'm in indecisive between the Bronze and the Hyper Silver, although the Black looks pretty nice too
If someone could photoshop these wheels maybe?



Should have the wheels by summer !

Will have my drop on Buddy Club racing spec coilovers in 3-5weeks from now, thinkin' 1 finger gap in the front

i'm gonna say hyper silver; personally, i believe it would go well with the silver window trim. On the other hand, im not a fan of bronze rims in the first place (except the ones that come on the STI's)

I'm seriously looking at these rims too.
I kinda wanted 19 inch rims, I don't want to buy new rims just to have them
end up looking small and making want to buy new ones again.

However, these rims in 19" only come 8.5 with a 40mm offset.
That's the smallest width and highest offset available for them in the 5 x 114.3.
Which means they're going to almost certainly present a rubbing problem.

Leaving me with the choice to get 18's like you're going to do or go find another
rim to buy...

I just wish you could get them on your car sooner, so I could see how it looks.

Great choice or rim by the way!
I too have a CGP, and I'll choose the Hyper Silver

AME Bronze on CGP TSX. Trust me. I test fitted them on my 06 CGP TSX last summer, and they were amazing.

Silver's my next choice. Either one looks amazing.

Bronze. The "hyper silver" looks too dark for my liking, more like a gunmetal. The black just wouldn't look right at all without blacking out the window trim first.

just a little update...
i honestly wasn't expecting wheels until the summer... but... these just were too good to be true to pass up. Borrowed quite a bit of money from my friends but they're coo with it. but this was a steal deal, in all seriousness..

Picked up the VS-XX's hypersilver's
just a lil somethn'... will update next week when they're on the car, waiting on lug nuts

Wow, great deal! Not bad at all.

I'm still going to stick with these AME's most likely though myself.
If I ever get them and put them on, I'll surely show ya the pics.

Let us know when these are on and cleaned up!
