I guess that you could opt for the rota grids that are on gbc. Other than that, there isn't much out there in terms of 16's unless you're willing to spend a pretty penny.

hhmmm...i really would like the grids..but not in gunmetal.
if i change my rims i want it to be a drastic change in looks..
ive been though silver, gunmetal...and hopefully...????

so in the terms of 15s...i know black will match my car perfectly.
im just affraid that it will look like any other black wheel that you cant see what rim it is...do the C8s have a clear on them..unlike the SS???

I think that these would look sweet on your car;




Too bad that they're on the pricey side (these are 16's by the way).

Thos are real nice. Ive seen them in a mag on a Black Rx7 they had a red lip though. But off the topic. About how much is powdercoating any way cause that would be a good option i think

probably anywhere around 70-100 bucks..each rim..which is almost paying double. plus you have to get the tires taken off and put back on..which is another 10 X 8.

the super advans are nice but dont look right on hondas IMO, if i had a 240,300zx, or rx7 those rims would be a top choice. anyhow those advans are about 400-500 a peice so the're kinda up there with volks as far a pricing. if your looking to spend that much, may i suggest the advan RG's in gold they look sweet on blue cars

or if you want cheaper how about konig heliums (ce28 knockoff)

gold looks great on blue great kinda rally style

the heliums are bronze and hold up pretty well my buddy travis (vtecsol) has had them on his delsol for about a year and they still look new, but not as nice as real ce28'2

edit: found a pic of the car i was talking about
