Ok guys, im posting in here cuz i know there is a good mix of styles in here, (JDM, Show, ect.) here goes,
choice one, Rota Slipstream 16" 14lbs??? heres a photoshopped pic to give u an idea of what they will look like on my car.
choice two, Kosei RT Mesh, i love these wheels, they are imported from japan supposidly and weight 15 lbs in 16"
heres a pic of them photoshopped on my car
heres a close up of them at an angle
the slipstreams are 500 shipped brand new and the Koseis are 210 a wheel, about a 400 dollar difference. Tell me what you think peace.

Those kosei mesh wheels look good I'm a really big fan of those. I like the slipstreams too but I am just awating for springtime and seeing every civic rollin on them, I think they'll be as prominent as altezzas(well not that prominent but u know) So personally I wouldn't get them. These wheels may be a lil pricey but I really like like the volk-racing gram lights....somewhere ive seen a deal for them w/ tires for
about 1200 but I cant remember where
5Zigen becketts are nice too but again pricey so I'm prolly not helping much there lol. Also, look at buddy club p1's too you can get those for about $250/wheel...or even konig traffik's in flat black. Well I hope my suggestions helped somewhat.
This is a OT(sorry) but I saw your videos on northeastimports.com and I just wanted to say great job on your car. I'm currently saving for the greddy kit which should come sometime this summer and seeing your videos was just more inspiration to keep saving. Anyways, I was wondering how your car has been running since you put the kit in.....were there any big problems? I'm planning on running the greddy kit with an upgraded fuel pump(walboro 255iph),v-afc, with a dsm intercooler and bov (dsm parts sitting in the garage collecting dust) 5.5psi daily and maybe 8psi at the track. Do you think I should just go with a standalone fmu if I boost it more than the 5.5psi? or will I be safe? Thanks in advance, sorry for the long reply lol.

hey, thanks for the compliments, well, as far as your setup goes, you should be fine with an FMU, pump, missing link, and injectors if youre gonna run above 6 psi. Im looking into a chip for my car, not sure yet, my car runs great, basic things are needed after awhile. I drive it pretty hard as you might be able to see in the vids
as for right now, i have a little bit of a tranny noise issue, but oh well. the car does have 101 K miles on it. Thanks for your interest and compliments, and also thanks to ppl that gave me a little help with this wheel deliema, I hear your points about the slipstreams being the wheel of choice this summer.
