keep them polished, blades loose their value when they are painted.

I dont care about the value because i will NEVER part with these rims!.. They have always been my favorite rims and they were the first thing honda related i have ever purchased besides my car! I just want different. Everyone around here has polished blades and i want to stand out ..

Just leave them polished or paint them a shade of silver. Painted oem wheels are IMO cheesy. My HX's I use for autocross were painted white before I got them and I hate it. Painting them silver this weekend.

let me tell you the problem with gsr blades.

on the pass side of the car, they point forward, and on the d river side, they point backward.

otehrwise, cool wheels.
