Here's my car...it's lowered down so there's no gap whatsoever now and it looks 2x's better.





If you want me to post up more just ask.

BTW: It also has the centercaps on all fours now (notice the back ones don't have centercaps.

I chose the bronze because it would look nice with the black color of the car and the orange turn signals. Just my .02

You didn't add silver as a choice. Nobody ever wants silver wheels. I think they would look great silver. Did I say "silver" enough?

u probly won't be able to powdercoat those since its a one piece rim...painting will work. i say u change it to another color white is a pain in the *** to keep clean...trust me i know

a good combo, would be powdercoating the spokes gunmetal, then having the lip re-polished so it shines better..my friend did that with his C2's the lip is chrome-like

damn u had to post that picture of them in gunmetal didnt u... u punk! lol now that just really made me want to get them done, but on the other hand i dont want to fool with it.i'll more then likely keep them the way they are, white with the polished lip... u think that would look bad on a black teg with black housing bumper lens and lowered?

monday my friend gets his new wheels in for his 92' accordlude which are these velox vx8 's



if he doesnt like the way they look we were thinking of a possible trade. i dunno, i think id rather have the velox's then the racing harts.
