If i had 15" wheels on mah civic then bought some cool 6 spoke wheel covers and painted them non-shiny black. Black wheels, black car, black tires (ofcourse). Would that look cool? You guys seem to know what's cool and i would like your opinion. The tires and wheel covers and the whole car pretty much would look very close to the one pictured below.


any cost effective suggestions would be helpful

 

for some reason i dont think the pic worked... well here it is

 

******* hell!!!!

here is the link to the pic

If you like it do it if you dont then dont do it. Simple as that.

if i had to do it over again id make the entire car look as cheapy as possibe.. maybe then id still have my coupe

 

f what others say..do your own thing mang!

 

Yea Dodger im aware those arent wheel covers. You see with the caliper visible and all...
N e way i wont settle for a cheap looking job i'll make it look good. Thanks for encouragment

 

rrrriiiiiiiight.............

 

leave it stock or get sum rims. Dont paint hubcaps

 

Good luck mang, just don't guve a **** what others say. Do your own thing.

 

if that's your style... do it.. at least you don't have to worry about people jacking your rim

it might look cheap.. but you will have money for bigger and better upgrades

 

when did black become so cool?

 

Since I did it

 

since wesley snipes in passenger 57 lol

 

Do your own thing and dont follow what others think is cool.

"Its hip to be square." I just remembered that from American Pyscho, great movie.

 

"Always bet on Black."

 

so yeah my painted caps lookin damn amazing!!!! There non-shiny dark, dark black, and I stensil sprayed the Little H in the middle red and its clean and crazy... i said if it looked cheap i would take'em off... well it dun look cheap, it looks like i ordered black wheel covers with mah Civ...

 

isn't that leo's car?

 

well i dont know but it looks sweet!!

 

When ppl discovered JDM enkei's were black...

I personally think $20 bling bling chrome hubcaps are FAWKIN GAY, but you're goin black with them, so I dunno... Like everyone else says, do what you want, your car... I think if you're gonna get hub caps you should get some honda ones, maybe from a different honda, but atleast honda ones aren't immitation chrome bling blings I never liked black rims, but I'm not gonna hate on them if its someones style... Rims are always better than hubcaps, lighter, more expensive, but they add to your car.

Well, you got one good thing goin for you, theives are less likely to jack your painted hubcaps they'll prolly slash your tires for making them think they were rims But I think itd be noticable if you had 5 spoked rims with fat gaps between that show the holey OE's

 

yea mine are the Honda ones I got with the car... just black... with sweet *** little red H's

 

I changed my mind and fucked the spoke ones and just painted the Honda ones... no gaps

 

good, spoked ones are the gayest, cuz I was just at target and they had chrome 5 spoke hubs for $19.99 and they say "SE Special Edition" in the middle wtf! Just say no to rice

"You want 5 spoke, why dont you just buy the rims?" I can hear that coming from PatrickEwing (i think it was him ) whoever it was

 

When i first bought my car, the previous owner had painted the hubcaps.. It looked nice... its the car in the middle by the way.
