Default Diamond wheels

Have to admit I'm a bit intrigued. I wanted to put Panasports on mine, but no fitment available. My thought was these could look good as winter season wheels, if you live in snow country. Or maybe even a "DTM" look with vented hood, wing with endplates. sewer-pipe exhausts

Lol you guys crack me up. You can actually order a custom set. In 18's which is what I'm gonna do unless it costs too much. I bought my GS for 2800 I'm not gonna spend 3k in wheels to put on it. I rather put that money into my other build. But everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

If your into black wheels I would rather see you run these, You said your gonna do a custom set in 18's probably run the same amount with tires, I say grab these then save your money for tires, I think you will be happy

If you really don't care, why bother asking what CL thinks? Just do it, post pics and be done!

don't hondacize the car...even if it's a million years old. these cars were never meant to cross path...unless it raps itself around a light pole.

I will be buying a new car, as it's obvious that the GS is no longer a "baller" car. People paying 3k for one?!! Insane. It has to happen I guess. It's sad that many of us have spent alot of money into one, and nowadays you have people buying them for less than the price some people pay for rims. Do what you want OP, it's your car. Just be ready to be given an opinion if you ask for one

everyone has their own style true, but most people, myself included, don't look at big bodied 4 door cars, and say, "that should look like a civic."

just my 2 cents

Maybe a 98 with 200,000 on the clock is 3000, I have yet to see one sell for that price, maybe with a salvaged title
