Default Need help on color!!! (Rota Slips)

I found a place where I can get Rota Slips for really cheap.
I dont know what color I should go with tho..

My Crx is Bluish Green, out of the factory, looks more blue than green...

Any opinions?

Agreed, these are all over Charlotte as well. I had a chance to pick some up cheap but decided against it due to everyone having them.

Yes everyone has black, but so what. If you like black, get black. There is a reason why no one has orange rims. I don't understand people that don't buy something cuz everyone else has it. I also don't get the bangwaners who DO buy **** cuz everyone has it. Just buy **** if YOU like it.

Flat Black gets my vote

It's classy, not flashy, very simple rim.

The would be nice butt Rota slips dont come in flat black..Its like a semi shiny black..
The spoon sw388 wheels are the only ones in that style that come flat black and they're not painted..They're anodized..


Heres the black rotas come in..Its got a little gloss



Heres how rotas look when painted flat black..

im having this same dilemma. My crx is black, but i cant decide between the slips in :

black
bronze

my thoughts:
straight black on black looks bad ***... but looks a teeny bit plain
black STI's w/ bronze/gold look so frikkin great... but i dont drive an sti

suggestions? BTW, anyone got pics of black crx's with any of these color rims?

The base sticks out too far and doesn't look right. I just cheaped out instead of buying the real thing. This pic shows the uglyness.



Sorry for getting off-topic.
