The color of the wheels should be the least of your concerns.

17's or bigger id say... they look oddly out of place.... it also seem like theres some sort of drop on the car?.. cause my ex sat up higher then that with the stock suspension on..... but in all reality, i'd find someone that wants to trade you for some nice oem rims... then get your drop on and grab a plunger and get that dent outta there...... youll be surprised what oem rims and nice rubber will bring ya....

if you intend to stay with the current rims, id paint em a nice semi gloss black. stay away from the froot loops like red, blue, green. that colorful look looks ridiculous IMO.

but if you have some spare fundage id suggest bigger rims definately. 16's and under on em2's dont look right IMO. Id upgrade to a nice light 17.. oz superlegerra, or enkei rpf1.

ehh horrible ideas. EM2s are the step child of Honda anyhow since no one wants to inherit one on purpose. Stay 16 inch and under when changing these out. 17 inch will look incredibly ugly unless you get a 17 that plays itself like a 16. They are horrible and even the original Rays aren't the prettiest as well. I say sell them.

I agree, anything under 16's look way to small on em2's.

And are you running like 25mm spacers on the front because it sure looks like it.
