Default Old School Mugen rims, to buy or not buy?

15"x6" old school Mugen rims, I think they are pretty cool. Its a really rare find, this includes all 16 lugs, all 16 lug covers, the orignal Mugen allen key, all 4 origonal wheel caps, and a few other origonal things. They are in good shape, a few minor scratches and what not. I have a 1992 Captiva Blue Si HB, lowered, w/ soon to be carbon hood, duckbill, and front lip. Tell me how you think these would look on my car. Also it would be greatly appreciated if someone could do a photoshop putting these rims on a Captiva blue 5th gen hatch. I can get the rims for $1,500.

IMO, they would only look nice on a 88-91 Civic/CRX. Those wheels are too old school for an EG

I agree. Don't get it cause you just want to be JDM. The SSRs are much more lite hence better performance and looks.

I myself got two sets of SSR type-C and not one complain from me or anybody.

i seriously don't know why someone would spend 1500 on a set of old used 15" rims...i mean sure its Moogen, but you can get nicer rims NEW for the same price
