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

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.

1500 is too much for those without tires.

I've seen the regular ones go on ebay for around 500

Not for $1500! I'd say $1000...tops(if they were in better shape). They might be rare but they aren't that nice of wheels, IMO.

Nice wheels, but they're only 6" wide and very expensive at $1500.

I like those rims, but I don't know about on an EG. I think those rims look better on EF's, but I still say go for it, but definatly for a lower price. $1500 is WAY too much to pay for them.

I'd buy them for $900-$1100 depending on how bad the scratches were.

Those were just a possibility. These are the ones I have my hear set on:

Volk SE37A


Volk SE37K


Volk LE37K


Tell me what you think of these bad boys, I'd be getting them in 16x6.5" I want a more exotic rim, not something that has been totally played out.
