They wouldn't be too shabby in a hyper silver.

Look to be a knock-off of Vienna Courages.

One thing that I don't like about 'em is that the lip isn't rounded, it's square with a mini-lip.

This guy in my area had them on a V6 Accord Coupe and just sold to a guy with a CL-S and they never rubbed with a slight drop, so I guess the offset is ok

I have this on my 05TL.. I got them in march from this place in Lodi. Paid $1900 with Hankooks. Don't have individual pics because i'm at work but hope this link works, sorry if there are too many pics in there. Let me know if there are any issues accessing the link.
