thoughts please...Honda Odyssey
well its been a year now since I got my Odyssey and have tried a few different things now but looking for a new look...here are some pics :
test fit of some 22" that we had laying around
20" work meister in gold on custom bags
same meisters with some custom paint work
I think all three looks are pretty different but can't decide on which way to go with the car. I took the bags and wheels off and now back to sq one.
Looked into making custom coilover kit and fitting them with bags so I can get the bag look when parked but get better ride quality.
Also, looked into some FI options...but not sure if its worth that much $ to only get 4-5 psi of boost.
So looking for some input from CL members...

Wow, Work Meisters on an Odyssey... and you have FI on the horizon? Wow... I commend you for your determination and love for your van-borgini. You must either have a love for minivans, or have way too much money lying around.
Anyhow, I like the meisters in gold with polished lip better of the three.

i would agree that the gold meister was the best look so far. But since I already painted the wheel, I wont be able to take it back to that original color ( DAMN! )
The flat black with orange lip was more for a WTF effect, which I SOOOO got, but by local PD. got pulled over 11 times in a three week time frame...so decided to take everything off and redo the whole car.
FI would be great only because its not done everyday but going from my last car ( CL55 ) there isn't anything i can do to get close to that speed or power. And safety issues come to mind with the FI kit...would have upgrade EVERYTHING (got custom BBK, sways, etc..)
what do you all think of the Meisters in this finish :
or this wheel:
Work VS-XX in gold
or
Work Rezax II in gold

I like the VS-XX, always have. I think 19s look a bit small on the Ody.
I'm currently deciding between 22s and 20s for the Ody. I'm leaning towards 22s for the sheer wow factor and fact that you don't see many three-piece staggered 22s on Vans. I think I can stuff a 22x10.5 on the back... or should I say, I think I can make 22x10.5 work!
20s are good because the load ratings are typically better, important if you're travelling long distances with lots of people and gear.
Is yours actually Nighthawk Black?

I'm not a gold rim person but the second one seems to fit the best. It's well done.
The first one is too common to be honest and the orange one seems too flashy. The gold is just right (lol.. goldilocks... hmm no pun intended )

I'm with SICK....that combo is the best-looking.
But with any oversize wheels and tires like that, make sure you know how it will affect your speedometer...a larger-than-stock wheel/tire diameter will slow down both the rotation speed of the wheel relative to the car's actual speed and the reading on the speedometer as well. We get posts all the time here from CL members who get speeding tickets with oversize wheels because they think they are going slower than they actually are.
