Those BBS rims remind me of Dayton rims. I think both of them look absolutely horrible, no matter what car it's on. Something about the 10000000 spoke look that bothers me. Since it reminds me of Daytons, they look even weirder on cars that aren't lowriders. I don't know, maybe i'm out of touch with that style.
^ I'm sure this car looks good to a lot of people, but it doesn't work for me at all. The color looks like it came off a bath tub from 1980. Mirrors, moldings, side skirts are all unpainted, which ruins the flow IMO. An SIR lip on a 96-98 bumper, that never worked for me either. Biggest eye-sore IMO, is the 96-98 front-end. 99-00 is what I like.
But to each their own.

ugh.
I hate stretched tires.
Nice fitment on some, but most of the cars pic'd are pointless and impossible to drive aggressively. May as well be rolling a donk and hydros.

The Scions look horrid with the BBS mesh rims. The older Civics look decent, provided there's a decent amount of lip (such as the red one). However, none of those are JDM... they've taken the Volkswagen book and simply used a thick marker to replace GTI and Jetta with Civic. Decent look, but I still prefer it on Euro's.
