Rim opinions

So I have a black 2006 Civic LX coupe and need some nice rims. I found these....but does anyone know enough about TSW rims to give me opinions about their strengths and weaknesses for use on a daily driver (though a lead-footed daily driver) type of Civic?

Also, if you'd care to weigh in with your thoughts on their appearance, I'm all ears....er...eyes. I want the center spokes more black than grey, but the overall look of the rims, I like so far.

i dont know man.. to me they are just ok.. i dont really like the way the center cap is.. can i ask what you like about them?? Because its not like that is a hard color scheme to find, and its not like tsw is that great of a brand, and its not like that is soo great of a price. In my opinion, you could find yourself something better.

i say if that is what you are into, then by all means go, i think they are nice and would be great in gold or red on a o6 civic

I just like the design actually. The color scheme isn't perfect, but that can be changed I bet.

Oh don't get me wrong, I love 'em. I would like to know for certain that the color can be changed to black to match my car (well black with a polished lip) but other than that, I love 'em. My other main concern is their strength, durability, etc. I had rims on my '04 Lancer Ralliart.....granted they were just factory 'sport' rims but they were weak as hell.....as I found out the night I hit three of those lil white bumps seperating turn lanes from the rest of the road lanes.....and bent my left front rim all to hell. I'm not saying I'm going curb hopping with these on....but I'd like to know I don't have to treat them like a toddler while I'm driving...ya know?
