Prelude with Gun Metal Volk GT-C

Guys, I receive the Gun Metal GT-C today and I was going to use this rim for the prelude. However, it does not seem very pretty and I kind of don't like it. What is your opinion on the rim? Should I stay with this rim or get the SE37A Silver which I plan to order next. Picture of the Prelude with GT-C is listed below. Post away with your opinion!!








Guys, I need your opinion. This is our show car and I need it to look best for both show and street. Thanks!!

Tony

Goddamn those wheels look good. Stick with those, never ever seen them before on a prelude, seems unique.

These wheels kickass. but they don't go well with the rest of the car.

White exterior + chrome Altezza... looks good. but then u get dark rims? not consistent.

If your goal is to appeal to the majority...hmm.. i don't know.

Nice rims... look better if you got bigger and painted calipers... yes... they're nice but I feel a mugen rear and stock front with SH/type S lip would go with teh rims better...

Yeah, we have the AEM 4 piston on order and the rear brake kit is coming too!! We got the body kit from Wings West and they painted the kit for us. It was really cheap so we take the body kit.

The reason we got dark rims is because we had silver Racing Hart C5 before this. Also, I did not want to get gold since our WRX has gold rims. I thought dark wheel on white car would look good.

OK, I get the point. Color does not match!! Should of got silver instead of gun metal. Oh well, guess I will sell this to local customer and buy the silver SE37A. Look for update on the new rims!!

*Also, I will start the Greddy Turbo kit GB tomorrow hopefully, look out for it in the Part Section. Thanks!!

are they 17's? You need to have something like 19's with that design. IT look so small on your car and yeah, too busy. Doesn't go with the lude lines at all... good looking rims, but just not on the ludes...

I think those wheels look badass. I'd keep them and ditch the altezzas! They would look a little better if the windows were darker...

Guys, I knew you were going to say that. They are 18" already. They look small too in my opinion for some reason. I am posting this rim up for sell if anyone want it. Thanks!!

I say whatever wheel you get next, go with white rims! White rims on a white ride is so right!
