Post Photoshop request. Quite simple.

I'm getting tired of the matte black paint on my wheels. I need something new to give my hatch a spicin' up. Here are my choices.

Choice 1 - Fully polished
Choice 2 - White face with polished lip
Choice 3 - All white
Choice 4 - Your choice, be creative

If you have any other ideas on what might/may look good, feel free to speak your mind. All comments are welcome

I know new wheels would be really nice, but I like these wheels. Never seen them before on a Civic or any Honda for that matter. Money is pretty tight being that I'm in high school still and only working part time.

To the green I was thinking of orange for some odd reason. I really like the fully polished but I think it's almost "too much" The white face with polished lip looks pretty good

Anyone else wanna give it a shot?

If they look so much like slips to where you cant tell a difference, then theyre most likely slips. Thats like the most common wheel among honda's...

I think you should go polished. IMO, polished always looks better. But it depends on what look you are going for; show and go or go and go. LOL. Either way painted or polished it will look good. Below are Polished Rota Slipstream. Can remove pic on owners request.

Its clear they aren't slips, but its also clear they can easily be mistaken as slips. For that reason alone I'd ditch the wheels and go with something else. On the other hand, dude said he's strapped for cash.

My personal opinion is, if you gotta keep that wheel, leave them alone altogether. Greens, oranges and all that...its ricin it up in my opinion. The car is too simple, and with all the black moldings I tend to want to keep them black. If I HAD to make a choice, I'd likely go white. DO NOT go snow white though, be sure it's a calmer white like championship or even creamier than that. That's my opinion.

I am strapped for cash. I only make about 600-700 a month and I've had this car since stock and it's come a long way. I'm leaning towards the polished lip with a white face. I don't want a REALLY bright white. A mild bright is nice like a Tafetta white or something in those lanes.
