Ya that was same reasoning I would take it out of auto if it wasn't in the setting I wanted with LEDs. But this is why the LED mod kit was such a huge priority to me, now I can have the beautiful LEDs in whatever setting

The 10-series paint is really starting to grow on me!

It's nice until you try to figure out what color wheels you want to go with.
I'm not doing black wheels. Not my style.

I think gold would look great. I really want a pale gold, kinda like the Advans RGIIs, but do you think the more orange gold like the Enkei RPF1 would work too?

I'll probably buy anthracite wheels and dip them gold so it's not permanent

This is what I want, but I want it a bit more reflective.

Should we all with MT 10 series be expecting somewhat higher resale potential due to the "rare-ness" of the package?
Here you go buddy....:happy0180:

That's that nice pale gold I was talking about. I wish I could find some nice lightweight wheels in that color.

@torqdork
why not just do the mod and keep them on all the time. The LED DRLs are the main reason why I love my 10 series so much over my previous asphalt. I love seeing the reflection in shop windows lol

Any1 got nice wheels on their 10 series? Cant decide on color. Design will come after I pick the color. I want something that compliments the ignition silver. But I refuse to go gold. Had that on all my sets of wheels on my civic and im tired of gold. It looked awesome...... but im just tired of it.

Do you think Enkei gold is too orange?

I'm looking for wheels too, but I don't want black.

Any gold is too gold. I would go black as a last resort.
