I have the 08 si sedan in white. Back windows are tinted, lowered...I want black rims eventually. What ones do you think would look best? I don't like shiney, no gold or chrome or silver. No colors. Just really nice black ones. 18". Let me know what you think

 

How set are you on 18"?? I was gonna say you could just have the OEM ones painted black and save yourself some dough. Would look good to.

Better than 18s IMO. And they would ride much better, and not contribute as much to rotational mass.

HFPs 18's in flat black.....same weight as stock Si wheels.

But 18s look stupid on a Civic, and would STILL ride worse.

 

i say white ITR wheels.

i like my 18"s. and the ride quality all depends on your tires.
your opinion took as much thought as your screen name

Of course ride quality depends on your tires, but if you got 17s vs 18s but had the same tires (adjusted to which size wheel you used) the 17 will always ride better than the 18. Also, your 18s don't look too bad. LOL.

OMG...my sn on a honda forum didn't take thought. Where's a gun? The fact that you're SIVIC 3 and not just SIVIC proves how un-original you really are.

but, i was just messing with you anyway. hence the

I know bro...that's why the was returned.

 

I had mine painted black, although my Si is silver. Black stock wheels with red h's would look ill on a taffy si tho...my vote is to paint them

 

Despite the fact the op doesn't vibe glossy wheels, I say diamond black volk te's.

Hmmm i like the design but cf seems over the top. Matte black would of looked better. As regards to the OP matte black is going to be your best option. Not totally flat black, has a bit of shine to it, but doesnt look over the top or gaudy

Example:

 

this is the wheel i have. my car is galaxy grey...but it would look great on the taffeta white. get them. you won't regret it.

 

5zig's are nice. Especially in that black.

 

How about these? Available through All Version Performance

Enkei RPF1

 

So Weds is working on these dry carbon wheels. they're 6.1 lbs each and cost $12K for a set of 4. damn crazy.
