Default Thinking about 16 inch rota subzeros

what do you guys think? i want them in steel gray. can i still be a sleeper, will 16s look ok with my pro-kit drop drop.

or i'm going to powder coat my stock wheels gunmetal.

i kinda want the better handling a 16 will provide, but i'm unsure on what to do.

of course they'll better, but i'm performance first, looks second. the roads around here suck too, so i'm not sure how a light weight wheel with 45 series tires would hold up to daily driving.

oh well, aux's pic in his sig reminds of why i just may keep my wheels too and may look better than 16s.

Hey, I called Acura HQ about my wheels. The best they could tell me was they don't even paint the wheels, but get them through an outside vendor, which was classified info.

I called Honda HQ, they said the best bet would be to call an Acura dealer and see if they can tell you who makes the wheel. From there, call that companies customer service and see if they can give you a paint code.

Other than you finding a local ITR owner or coming to CT, that would be easiest.

damn, thanks for looking into that. i wonder if Enkei makes the wheel. they seem to make many honda wheels. i got a little Enkei symbol on the inside of mine. i'll try calling Enkei.

i think found the color i want though just incase that doesn't work out. my friend has OZ Superleggeras in tuner silver. i think it's pretty close to the type r color. i'm going to try to match that as best as i can if i can't get a paint code.
