You can't go wrong with either CW or GM. But on PY I would side with GM.

I wonder what PY wheels would look on PY ITR. I don't think I've ever seen this done. Might be something to try. But you might end up looking more like big bird.

Why can't you just search the Official Phoenix Yellow ITR thread?

Here, I'll even provide you with the link: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=960221

If that were the case, I'd paint my own wheels that color - not suggest that YOU do it.

Maybe it just signals what I think of this thread

No, hes saying you are asking a dumb question. Color is all personal preference. Only you can make that decision. You want pics, search through the pic thread.

Oh, and GM looks better on PY IMO.

Mugen Mike = best icons evar . That "light bulb idea" one had me in stitches.

OP: I think white looks good against PY. Daring but nice contrast IMO. Also a gloss or flat black would work well. You had to have known you were going to catch some flack starting a thread like this.

x2. You guys are trying to clown this guy and make him look like a tool, but he's not the one that looks silly.

I'd like to move this, but now there's nothing to move until the thread gets cleaned of all the smart-*** remarks.
