'08 aspen white on black 18" ultraleggeras - Page 2

I think that it looks really good - my only gripe with black wheels is that you have to be up close and personal to really appreciate the specific style that you bought. Otherwise, all black wheels seems to kind of merge together in my mind when I see them far away or at a quicker glance, and even merge with some of the older civics that run black hubcaps. Your wheels are beautiful, and I just wish I could see them better. Overall though, nice choice on wheels. You'll stand out, be different, and will look good. I think I'd def run a CF front lip at some point.

I really don't like the color white for a car, but I can't argue with your choice of wheel. The OZ Ultraleggeras are my favorite after market wheel from a performance/price standpoint.

Now, those rims on a DGM or SSM STI would be sick!

SICK!!! get a perrin front plate delete!

I am getting the same rims but in bronze... I am going with the 18x9 however and am going to put my stock tires on them for the short term since I am mounting winters on the heavy stock wheels.

They look great in black and was my first choice but I wish our calipers were not black... they would look even better.

Black wheels are so trendy right now...
