If you had a CF hood I would say number 2 but I don't think they will match anything on the car the way it is now.

What!? I love the spokes and the clean lip look. I just wish they were gloss black though

I KNEW something was missing about the black rims but I love the style.

Rim 2. I saw about 400 civics / integras with rim 1 yesterday.

rim 1 will look bigger on your car than 2. Rim 2 might look small because the spokes stop a good 1-1.5" away from the lip.

Found out today that the place is out of stock rim#1 so I ordered rim#2 in silver, second fav, so it was a natural choice. They're, what, volk copies?
