Default focal rims

a buddy of mine is willing to sell me his focal rims for $100. they have tires on them but are in bad condition. also the rims have alot of scratches and knicks in them. what is a good way to buff out the scratches and knicks on my own. i am also going to be painting these rims gunmetal or black. which do you guys think will look best on a vogue silver integra? here are the rims. they are 17's. if anyone wants to photochop the wheels on my car that would be greatly appreciated.





Please i dont care what you think of the wheels. dont reply unless you can answer one of the questions. thanks

I think you should keep your car. I've seen al ot of slammed integras on those mesh's and they look so sick.. Better than the gsr blades [when slammed... not on stock height] for some reason.. Keep them reeums.

Good call Dre...or save yourself the $100 for something better than "extra wheels". Most people on this board place focals in the same category as LED washer sprayers and altezza lights.

get em' but keep the ls wheels, you could use the focals for beaters on long drives w/all season tires.. paint those ls wheels gun-metal with your good set of tires, your car would look great.

If you're going with inexpensive wheels atleast go with Rota's.

For 100 I'd buy them and keep them as a back up even though they are 17's.

the only thing good about focal rims was that Francine Dee was the spokesperson for them and we got to play strip poker with her online, other than that, ugly wheels
