They do match the car color better but also look a little plasticky. Good things is it's easily reversible if you don't like it after a while.

Thumbs up for thinking different and personalizing your car tho. :thumbsup:

That's what I thought. Looks like a plastic hub cap to me.

2slo, let's see a zoomed out view of the whole car in good lighting. Hard to tell like this and I agree focusing just on the wheels it looks a bit hub cap like.

They do look hugcaps. That was one of the first things I said to myself too. The wheels spokes are just so thick and the two toned that the wheels were originally hid the thickness by hiding it in black. But I'm not sure if the wheels will stay this way. They're going to just be winter wheels for now. Come spring and based on availability, new wheels and coilovers should be on..

Got the Polysteel Protection Coat put on yestersay. Picking it back up today. They gave me a rental car. I believe a Nissan Versa. Gave me a whole new appreciation for my Civic.
Is the polysteel worth it?

Do you have a picture of the wheels before by chance? I'd be interested in a before/after if u have one. Must have been a lot of work!

I agree those wheels are too busy but I think my issue is more with the busy design than the contrasting colors. There are plenty of black/silver wheels that look great. I'm hoping for better options on the coupe.

I'd have to say so. My car stays a lot cleaner than it did before. My older civic faded after a while which is what the Polysteel is suppose to prevent. And they treated the interior as well.

Maybe you could peel away some of the plastidip to reveal some of the black parts underneath. Not as much as the factory wheels, but enough to give it a little contrast.
