gold

slipstreams are overdone. they do look good tho!

[vinnY]

i'd think some work equip 03's in gold would be funky on green :) aussie colours ftw!

[EuroDude]

Hyper Black ftw.

Gold rims look a bit tacky imo

Go white bro. White make your car stand out and looks more JDM
GOlD just dolls it out, i seen some getting around with gold on green car.

Slipstreams, SSR, Works, Enkei, Mugen, Volks, tr these brands u might find some good ones. or go search on ebay.

Rays/Volks ftw, or replicas if ur not using it for racing

that depends on the rim type and the car type aswell to suit it. green gold is ok but gold on a green civic not really unless its a nice rim with fat spokes. rather white stands out more. I use replicas for racing and my gens are for to drive around, why if wreck gen racing cost to much to buy, if replicas cheap as shit.

[TheSaint]

lol i would prefer to keep the replicas for everyday wankers to scratch and keep my genuine ones with good tyres on for racing in my cupboard with my clothes lol the genuine ones are forged properly, are stronger and are better weight for racing - its what they are designed for, ur not gona race on the street so whats the point

[TheFranchise]

outta the ones u posted, id go the hyperblack...

unless you wanna lash out heaps more and go with any of the wheels TheSaint posted

[TheSaint]

remember the replicas are cheaper
