i'm tryin to decide on some new rims... i was either gonna get bronze 17" volk se37k or 18" gunmetal le37t for my fd. i sort of wanted get 17s cause i don't even make enough horsepower to make use of 18s and plus the possibility of rolling my fenders isn't so appealing. if anyone has any pics of bronze rims on a yellow car, please post them.

someone on here posted a pic of bronze rims on a CYM FD a while ago, and it was unbearably ugly, IMO.

on the other hand, gunmetal and black rims look really nice on CYM FDs! go with 18" gunmetal LE-37Ts.

just my .02

I agree. I have not seen bronze on yellow, but I imagine that the gunmetal or black would be more appropriate.

I never seen a CYM FD with bronze wheels, but I saw a Yellow Honda S2000 with Bronze TE37, MAN....... that's terrible, but that is just my opinion.... go with Gunmetal, since that is bigger in size that should be cool.

Here is a picture of my old MR2 they are kinda bronze. i personallly love Bronze rims against yellow.

bronze is alright, but flat black or gunmetal is the way to go with yellow

I agree with Gunmetal. It WILL look better.
I saw a CYM with Gunmetal wheels. It looked REALLY good.

could someone post some pics of theses 2 types of wheels or a link where i can view them? I have a CYM and am getting tired of the stock chrome ones. thanks

How does the gunmetal look on a black FD? I was thinking of going this route.

Normally I'm pretty liberal when it comes to car/wheel combos, but I'll have to agree with the rest of the responses. Bronze wouldn't look bad at all, but gunmetal/anthracite would look far better. Since you're considering them I say get the LE37's definately. They're incredible looking, light, and did I say they look sweet Another choice might be the Kenesis K5's. They're not really gunmetal per-se, but they have that kind of appeal to them. Or how about some OZ Superleggera's? Oh and definately stay away from gold rims. They're pretty rough on a cym, but on a black/dark car they look great. I was gonna get some bronze RH CP035's for my FD had I decided to keep it.

I'll throw some fuel on the fire and say that I think Bronze would look the best... gunmetal or anthracite on yellow with those Volk's would just make you look like a Z06 wannabe!
