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...

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.
