Silver hands down.

personally I think rims that usually fit sport compacts look silly on the ES's, and mesh rims look way better, or even deep dish VIP style rims.

Again this is my personal opinion. But out of all those rims Silver old school Axis' are the best.

I agree. Had a set on our '04 thought they looked great.
On the other hand, why would you put gold rims on a car with pewter gray trim

Wow, that actually looks pretty good. On both cars! Hey 99es3, could you post up or PM me with some tips on how you installed the homemade lip on your car

Just go to home depot and go in the garden section and find the roll of lawn divider/edging. 1 roll = 2 cars.. or if you want a front + rear.. It is very durable and can take a beating and nothing will happen to it. haha
