I dont think those wheels will look all that good. Those are meant for 50's Mercs lol not Hondas.

eh we'll see i guess. lol. since i want a full front bra i thought some black 15" rpf01s would look really good. or maybe some starks. anyone got opinions for any other wheels?

Volk Cal Choppy's for 50's Mercs? I don't think that's entirely accurate.

Talking about the general style, they look ugly as **** on a Honda. I couldn't care less if Volk or whoever makes them.

wow thats gonna look like sex when u get the rear wheels on. just slam it... SLAM IT. hahaha, yeah it must suck to downgrade ur powerplant like that but i know where ur coming from, i got a gsr myself and i'd let it go any day for a clean and stock ek hatch. good luck with the new car man! i was a big fan of your db.. i remember the wheels generating a lot of hate and controversy, but i love em.
