Default Need some imput from you guys

I have a black 99 si coupe. I'm gonna post some pics soon when I have acess to a digital cam. For now i need some advice. I'm gonna buy a set of 16 inch rita slips within the next month or 2. I think black would look awesome on my car. I love that look of black rims on a black car, and I rarely see any cars like that in my area. Alot of my friends think gunmetal slipstreams would look better. What do you guys think? Any info would be really appreciated.

You get really bored quick with black on black.... I had dark Bronze on black and the car looked so boring.

I used to Love black wheels... and still do just trust me and dont put black wheels on a black car.

If I were you and I wanted slips, I would get the gunmetal with polished lip. Westcoaststyle has those. You should check it out if you havn't already.

i thought i read sometime ago that you can get almost any color with a polished lip. It just cost a lil extra. Hit up cashis on that one. But back to the main topic, I would definetly go with something with a polished lip for shure. Black, gunmetal, broze w/ polishede lip all would look nice.

I think your right they just make gunmetal and steel gray with the polished lip. I think you should get the gunmetal that way it will give your car some definition.

That would be cool if you could get every color with a polished lip, but I'm 99% sure that you can't. Someone should ask Cashis. Where is he anyways? He never posts in the civic forum anymore.
