Default Bronze Rims?or keep it Black?

Hey guys,
I'm thinking about getting some 16" rims in Bronze or just painting my c5's bronze. What do you think? Crappy paint picture, but it does the job I guess. I have on stock si skirts now. LMK what you think... paintjob is RSX Desert Sand Metallic
Car right now (with diff skirts)
...Car with crappy paint version of bronze rims

honestly i think that blacked out wheels are overplayed. i think that bronze wheels looks sexy. im rocking circuit 8's in bronze on my black Si and i love them. just my 2 cents!

Better black because you car is a dark color.

I honestly think The Balck looks good. But I also love bronze wheels. And you do see a lot of civics runnin around with black wheel I vote go for bronze, and if you paint them PLEASE don't do as crappy as your picture

The black rims match the black hood & grille...I vote to keep it as is.

I like them both, if you go with the bronze they'll be flashy. If you go with black, then they'll be matching.

I say keep the black rims,your paint is darker so imo the black suits it better..
If your just looking for things to change or to spend money on i suggest doing interior if you havent already..

bronze will turn more heads and attract more attention just cause the color. of course i wouldn't necessarily want the attention. just attracts thieves imo. I like the black because it's not flashy and it mathces nicely.
