it really is true that bottlecaps can look pretty good on anything BUT an e30...

Strange but so true.

MUCH better. I really am not a fan of the black-infill-polished-spoke style like those. I hope you sold them to someone for a decent price.

Descenting vote.

It is a little too early to be putting your winter wheels on.

I will be putting the other wheels on Craigslist later today.

I hope you win millions of dollars for them. I always thought bottle caps looked best on hatchbacks, but I am a sucker for white wheels.

Hmm, I like the before wheels better. Nothing against bottlecaps per se, but they look kind of awkward in solid white on a black car. Just my opinion.

The car drives 8 million times better with decent tires and wheels that don't weigh two million tons.

the white on black is a little jarring, to each his own I guess

I think I may have gone with a more gun metal gray rather than white. Just wait till the brake dust arrives.
I owned a '95 Civic EX near new. It really was possibly the best car I ever owned.

Awesome, I'm getting a total WRC vibe from that.

PM me about those wheels, are they 4 x 114.3, what size etc...Thinking they would work on the RX5.0 which has GSL-SE suspension

The bottle caps are awesome. I want something similar for the black car in our family so I can have a panda theme 8)

Nice! Huge improvement.

I think I might have been tempted by some lurid, fluro colour, though...

Good lord bejeebus, MUCH better. I know they came with the car, but there were so many things wrong with the wheels that were there before (size, shape, paint, etc.) They certainly seem popular though, so hopefully you won't have a problem getting rid of them.

They definitely have a rally vibe in white. I'm not surprised the color combo isn't universally popular across the board, but if you like 'em then mission accomplished.
