Photos for you...5Zigen fno1r-c (bronze)

I put them on today to put a heat cycle on the tires before they went back into the basement. Thought you guys might want a pic or two since someone was asking what they looked like a few weeks ago. IMO they are "ok" looking, but I'm only using them on the track, not on the street...so who cares what they look like...

Yeah, I hate how those wheels look like 15 inch wheels because of the lip and how far away the spokes are from the edge. I bet they're light and the car must really accelerate quicker with them on.

they do look small, I agree.

That said, at autocross events, everyone (at least everyone who's good) runs smaller/same-as-stock diameter wheels. The fastest civics usually run with 14's!!! Alot of guys have mix-and-match wheels with $$$$ expensive lightweight 16's on their drive wheels and slightly cheaper, heavier wheels on the non-drive wheels.

Hell, even the evo guys change wheels - and their stockers are LIGHT.

basically, it's not a looks contest. If you look all "bling" at autocross events, people just think you are a loser.
