Default wheels question...

Can someone post pics of a '94-97 teg with LS mesh wheels on it? I'm thinking about getting a set but I've heard they don't look that great on the older 3rd gens. :a:

It would look pretty much the same as the 98-01...all that changed was the bumpers/lights...the body lines are still the same.

Crappy pic, but you get the idea:

I have mesh's on my LS and I think they look really clean. As long as its a gen3 it should look fine. Plus they're fairly light rims, even lighter than GSR blades or "swirlies" as some of you may call them.

Yeah, I think LS mesh do look clean. But why not spend the extra $$$ and get some Blades. They look super duper clean when they're shiny

ah yes, i remember my quest for gs-r blades. tough to find and kind of expensive for OEM factory wheels though. people like to up the price bc of their availability. thats why i decided to stick with the mesh's. besides, makes my car look stock

I have mesh wheels on both of my Integras. Here's how they look on my '95 GSR:

Oh yeah, there isn't more than one design for the mesh wheels is there? I thought I saw two different styles that were very similar but slightly different. Could've been my imagination though. :a:

There are two mesh designs. Besides looking ugly, its also a 14" wheel that you don't want. You want the 15" mesh wheels. See below:
