Default Some Pictures of my 97 Civic Coupe

I've had this car for about 2 years now. When I got it, it was total rice - and I just finished un-ricing it. Had to remove giant wing, body kit, blue brake drums, m3 mirrors with blue lights on them,altezza tails, cut springs; costed me over 2,500 to get all new oem parts and reworked/repainted.

The mods I have now are:

Exterier:
~2.5 inch drop on ground control coilovers
Ingels front/rear camber kits
16 inch rota-subzero
Falken Zienx Tires
Full re-spray of VSM
Custom Sun-Roof

Engine:
AEM Cold Air Intake
Blue Wires
Headers(ebay brand)
Ex-Mag Exhaust

It's still really slow, but it rides nice and gets great mileage. I'm very happy with what I've turned it into.

What kind of wheels do you think would look good on it, suggestions? Those wheels were the only part of it that I kept on because I thought they looked pretty good with the silver paint

they aren't bad man...but like everything...back and a polished lip is getting old looking.

Some nice white/bronze wheels with a more of a drop would make it look hot.

DX intakes are funny looking. The car looks ok, though.

do u mean like the rims? or the tires.. b.c the rims are 16's... .but i guess its a civic... (not downing civics b.c i like them)

but i have an accord.. and my drop is 2.5 all around and it just reaches the top of the tired if not a little higher and i have the stock 15's and those are small as heck to me.. (id get 17's) but i guess the accords are bigger .. just trying to get the whole body to rim to drop ratio if u get what im saying.. anyways

id have to agree. get a lip or something and it would look better
