white rims are ok....but they dont look good on a red car. i am guessing your fd is red by your name. i would go with either a polished wheel, black, or bronze.

I personally like white rims the best, even on red cars. I have a Blaze Red 91 FC, and I am slapping some white rims on her. Polished looks rice to me. To be really Jap, get a set of bronze rims. That looks sweet....

I like the car puma. My only problem is with the efini badge in the front. We didn't get the efini version in North America. I see it the same as the civics with the civic type R stickers and badges. I do like the rims. Not that my opinion counts to you anyway.

I really want white rims because I think it will blend really good from the photoshop pics I have made... At first I wanted bronze but that can stand out a little too much.

PICS:
1. 5Zigen Heidfield's - These are the rims I really want but they dont make them in 18x10
2. 5Zigen Corpse's - Pretty cool but I want a mesh type rim
3. Racing Sparco Viper-R's - Some people like them, I just wanted to see what they would have looked like.

well i am not the one who put the badges there.

actually, it was the previous owner. if it would have been me, they would have never been there.

in fact, i am starting to be bored of people asking me what is that sign? try to explain that after, exactly like you said, it is like a type-R on a civic...

i might remove them in fact, just not in hurry, better things to do like getting it to run right.

I say who cares what people think is rice. If you like white rims, then put'em on. I personally like white rims, I don't think they look the greatest on a red car, but still they are nice. I had White Volk Racing TE-37's for my Black FC, but I never got a chance to put them on. Had to sell'em.
