Which wheels for black hatchback?
I need new wheels for my hatchback for street use but am having a hard time choosing. I'm looking for wheels that cost no more than $125/each and weight less than 12.5lbs. I like the looks of the slipstreams(although many people don't) but haven't found anything else appealing. Here is a pic of my car:

To help everyone else out...
I think you should throw on some GSR Wheels, either the 95's (spaded looking ones) or the swirlies... it will look pretty tough on your car

The wheels aren't exactly mine. The guy I bought the car from borrowed the wheels from a friend of mine. He still owes me wheels and i've been calling him every day about it, but still gives me excuses =\

I don't like bronze =p. I actually like the integra wheels on there now, but they are only 15x6 and new ones are too expensive(dealer markup)

Originally i was going to get a 5lug conversion with the gunmetel ITR wheels, but that fell through. I wish those wheels came in 4 lug. The 96-00 wheels i have on the fronts now and the ITR one are the only ones are really like honda-wise

Re: Which wheels for black hatchback? (Black HB)
since everyone is on the topic of rims....any of you guys know where I can get a used set of MUGEN M7'S? those rims owns me! I'm willing to pay $1600-$1750 with or without tires.
...oh yeah, I would go with either bronze, or black w/ red a lip on a black car.

Re: Which wheels for black hatchback? (R you serious)
Those spoons look real nice. My friend has them on his 99si as well as the red recaros(i love those seats). However I don't want to be putting that much money into my car(at least until i get a better job). The mugen wheels look better than I thought, but I still don't care for them. I think I might just go with slipstreams. I wish the painted black slipstreams looked as nice as the naturally colored spoons. I like the other colors(except bronze) but its hard to imagine them on the car without seeing them.
