Default my new rims... 16" slipstreams in white

check out my new rims. The total package price was pretty cheap.. 820 from machiii.net. They are light.. lighter than my old rims (17" konig tantrums) and quieter on the road too.

EDIT: if the pics arn't showing up, its geocities fault. usually happens for about an hour.







Ill take more pics tomorrow when its sunny. Any comments are welcome.

just be careful cause when you pop em off, the wheel gets hella scratched. just touch up with a white paint marker though.

Yeah the slipstreams are super light. I was amazed when I picked up my 15s. I was like Whoa!!!

Yeah the white looks super tight on your Civic!! Welcome to the Rota club!!


Bro you really need to get some wheel locks real soon!!

those look real nice in white,i'm glad you posted a pic of 16"s,i was thinking of buying the 15" slips but after looking at them they looked a little small so im going w/ the 16"s.

btw post some more pics

Those look really good on your car man. I like it! However, I'm not a fan of those centercaps. I took mine off my wheels(bronze slips).

its nice to see someone without flat black slips... My hatch is the same color as your civic and I may have to look into white slips instead of the 00' Si rims i was looking at. Nice choice man!
