Just got new rims on my 2012 Honda Civic EX Sedan - Borbet LV5 16 x 6.5 - didn't want to mess with new tires after only 14,400 miles. Will post new/better pics when/if snow disappears!!New Rims Left.jpgNew Rims Right.jpg
 
diggin the window visors. you need some springs!
 
those are some nice visors ! wish they were available for the coupe! , those rims are the same color as the car did they come in that color or did you have to paint match them ?

Purely coincidental that I found rims almost exactly the same color as the car. Was at a local tire shop getting work done for my girlfriend's car and this rim was on display. Instant attraction - I took the display rim and held it up in front of one of the rims on the car ad decided right then that I would eventually end up with those rims!! Borbet LV5 Anthracite from Tire Rack!

The car is less than 1yr old and has only 14,500 miles on it so I did not want to mess with new tires right now - might get larger rims in the future (saving these for winter).
They just got installed 3 days ago, but yes I plan on keeping them clean by frequent car washes and wiping them down after driving thru the elements, especially this time of year - snow, ice, salt.
