yeh i want to keep it a NICE clean look, but my problem is there is another guy with an EG with the EXACT same parts as me, but he has the Bronze 8's... damn, but not the royals :poosie:

**but i also want some bling!!!


Group N's > others posted. :thumbsup:

Haha thanks, but the offset is too low so i cant lower my car enough. :thumbsdow

EDIT: Maybe ill just get the Group N's hahah! oh boy! the Tenzo Sinkos which mine are are at a +36 offset, which i NEED +40 or more.

either would look pretty slick
if the GT3's, probably black or white
or even red might look good

1.Circuit 8's Royal
2.Gt3's In black
3.Gt3's In white
4. Circuit 8's In Bronze
5.Gt3's in Red/Gold/Green

02-12-2007, 09:41 AM
Theres no hate on the green Ek, haha ive seen your Green rim'ed hatch it looked amazing.

Thats the inspiration :thumbsup:, then again yours was white. But i still think it would look sick with red (or christmass'y) haha

red looks pretty good aactually

jdm_eg6
02-12-2007, 10:09 PM
Yeh Red looks Uber, this is just making the decision SOO much harder. I guess once the Circuit 8's in Royal are done and maybe the black GT3's i could get closer to making one . *crossing fingers*

Mr_John
02-12-2007, 10:41 PM
I'd go red. As you said it will be either a hate or love thing but I think it looks sweet on a red car.

ercchry
02-12-2007, 10:47 PM
but cody already did red... but on a black sedan

Go with the red with the chrome/polished lip:thumbsup:

Its unique and it wouldn't look out of place on your car.

02-12-2007, 10:59 PM

well here are your options for black if you want a chop (at least from me):

a) change the color yourself from the one above because:
- you have p-shop
- i hate changing to black because it never looks right

b) find me a pic of black ones mounted because i cant

+1 for red rims on your car :D
matching rim color w/ car color looks good.
even the car in my sig has it done
looks :bigpimp:

jdm_eg6
02-13-2007, 12:23 AM
Thats true, it does look like sex on wheels. it would definatly add a show value to my car, and be a little more out spoken.

PS: did you use the pic of the Miata with the GT3's for mine :rofl:

jdm_eg6
02-14-2007, 12:52 AM

Call around and find a good price. I don't remember how much they were but when I was looking into the GN+'s the FN01R-C's were WAAAAAY cheaper.

ercchry
02-25-2007, 05:23 AM
i kinda like the white, they match the headlights haha, or maybe cause im crazy

jdm_eg6
02-25-2007, 07:11 PM
^^ haha yeh my GF said get white... Man this is SOO damn haaardd! errg! Rims are such a hard choice like these are my reasons for each:

BLACK GT3's: Look sick, balla, yet clean look.
WHITE GT3's: Look sick, great accent and make the car pop
RED GT3's: SUPER unique look, pops the car, and nice
Circuit 8's: Add some bling to the Ride, clean look, and NICE!

:(

ercchry
02-25-2007, 07:12 PM
^^ if the red isnt exact i think it would clash hard (kinda like that one up there^^)

jdm_eg6
02-25-2007, 07:27 PM
yeh i tried darkening it a little more to my body color. Iam pretty sure it will be VERY close like the Integra on page 1. because my car is of the same color as that teg.

02-25-2007, 07:58 PM
I say bronze, but I'm biased cause I had them on my red civic. But my brother is the lucky one, he pretty much got them for free when I stripped my civic (along with my S2000 seats and tow hooks)... maybe I should make him pay for them... I just don't wanna see them leave the family...

These pics were taken at dusk/night... I'll try to find some day shots...

Rich I think it just stems from the fact that with a red car...colour combo's are hard to pull off in some cases. Versus a white car where you can pull off any colour as long as you have the cojones to try it...
