Rice burner

I just bought a 92 civic hatchback and I wanted some opinions on what kind of rims would look good on it and a body kit as well. Links would be appreciated. I do own a 02 TLS but I don't want to heavily modify the interior like I will be doing with the civic. I manage a car audio/video shop and we are going to rebuilt to inside of the vehicle from scratch. I would prefer rims that are not chrome. I like gun metal, silver or aluminum finish. I hope to take it to some local shows to show off our workmanship. Thanks for your input.

hahaha, 24s...lol. I agree with GTRspeeder..get some sweet JDM rims. Maybe some advans or similar. Those would look hot. Even better would be bronze.. totally set the car off and let others know you mean business.

if your gonna do a motor swap I suggest a punched out B18C4 motor(type R motor) from Spoon Motorsports. it will easy make 250 crank hp with no mods. we(my race team) have a 89 CRX hatch with a Type R motor in it. we blew it up at the last race. but hey life goes on.

Yeah, I thought the B18C5 is better for tuning. Put a turbo in there and you are talking about some serious HP..
