Silver or a nice bronze set....I don't like black really...but i guess they'd be alright as long as it's a good wheel

I like the mk-6 or the typhoon... but they all look WICKED heavy. which is about the last thing a civic needs...

I'm REALLY happy with my heliums... a little weak but they're lighter than charlie and his uncle in the fizzy drink room at willy wonka's joint.

nice wheels but I would stick with silver rims...haven't seen any gunmetal on silver to really compare it too though so whatever floats your plane

For a Civic I'd say the 5ZR or Fireball, however I like the Heidfeld more for an Accord. I'm more a fan of RH though....

On a Silver car I'd say silver, gunmetal, or black would be ok but I'd only put silver or gunmetal on my own. I wouldn't even think about putting bronze on a silver car, the only way I've seen bronze look good is on a blue Scooby.....funny how that works, eh?

yeah, i don't think i'll get bronze...

either silver or gunmetal...

i like where the wheels are gunmetal, but the metal surrounding them are silver...2 tone.

chrome looks too cheap, imo. just not a fan of them.

I think chrome is and looks ghetto. It does look nice with some 22" on an Escalade or Yukon, but I've NEVER seen chrome on a car that I thought looked good.

I'm not sure if I'd like a polished lip on gunmetal rims, but I guess I'd have to see it.
