I did not like my orange Si with black rims, I just installed my new summer wheels - 18x8 FAST FC-04 Titanium Colour rims, at 19 lbs they are much easier to install than the 32 lb factory wheels. I love the colour, a bit of a gunmetal look with nice metal flake in the paint, they call it titanium colour.

Honda dropped the ball with the matte black wheels these are awesome! :headbang:
Thanks for the kind words. Yeah black rims don't look good with all colours, and definitely not on the Blazing Orange Pearl (in my opinion). I like the factory wheel design, the weight of the OEM rms are really heavy though, and the black colour doesn't work with all colours. The factory wheels look good with black cars , not sure about all other colours though.

I agree black only looks good on black. This color definitely accents the orange a lot better.

I also agree about the black rims not matching up too well with the orange. Your new setup looks great!

The weight savings can definitely be felt with harder acceleration and revs climbing quicker, wheels want to spin easier too despite more traction. I suspect my fuel economy will increase a tad, a great performance upgrade IMO. I love it.
