Lexani's on CL-S

I'm in the market for some chromed wheels and have formed quite an attraction for the Lexani's Krystals. Thanks to notcreative ( man is he talented). I have a great look at what my car may possibly looklike with thses rims on it. What do you think.

The CL does not look good with a full faced wheel. Needs to be more open.

i guess its cause i saw them on a RSX and it looked amazing.
But seeing them on a CL I'm only getting a luke-warm vibe about them.
Personal I hate wheels w/ thin spoke. I typically prefer thicker skokes but not full face.
I guess I'm looking for something like the OEM rims but a little more

It might look better if the car was kitted, but I don't know of a kit for our cars that would make those wheels look good.

My car is fast enough to eat all the civic heads and bmw's aroung here. Besides I like racing but up here in NOVA. Racing a civic only leads to a Lambo, Boxster or 6 series gettign involved and punisihing you.
Back to the wheels
The more I look at them the bigger they seem.
I have seen the ronj's but they seem a little too skinny for my taste.
I guess its back to the lab. Any one else have wheel in mind

these babies but only if they made them in 19's. 20x8.5 are smallest I think. They are the Kaotik Fix Wheels. Check em out www.mhtwheels.com, with a little fender rolling you can fit these or maybe they have smaller ones call and ask.

What do you mean by 2000. I think chrome looks good on certain cars with certain colors. Unlike alot of the ricey wheels nowadays that everyone is putting on their cars. I have never had anyone not like my wheels with my car. What do your wheels look like.

If you go full faced then these are the most baller for the CL. Dont worry they come in chrome





just kidding


chrome is good but it has to be done tastefully. A full faced rim simply doesnt cut it for the CL. And dubz dont look good unless you have custom fender flares



If you are going to go chrome thats fine but keep the car how it should be....sporty and classy.






....and yeah I was being sarcastic

^^^^^ now that was the funiest thing I've seen on this site.
I agree with you about sporty and classy. I thought the lexani's were about the same size as the OEM wheels( or maybe a little bigger), but clearly they are not. I'm still searching. Thanks for the laugh

That's a clean looking kit, I'm not a big fan of bodykits but that looks nice. What kind, and where do I go about getting one. I've never been a fan of the rounded front bumber and the big gap to the ground.

One more thing, how about in snow or high curbs, any problems? I have all kinds of trouble pulling into driveways with my hawk. It's really low, so I have to turn sideways and drive really slow, one wheel/side up at a time and it still scrapes sometimes.

Please forgive my stupidity, I'm just trying to become a post whore I seriously didn't notice "versus" listed in the sig, I must be going blind. Still wondering how it is in snow and such though.

if you are scraping now without a kit... you will scrape a hell of a lot more with the versus kit.
