Really nice! I think I'm going to follow your lead and check out some of Prismatic's colors. Thanks!

Those wheels look great. One of the things about powder coating is that it is nearly impossible to match the color on the plastic center caps.

The signature graphic is clearer. Gives you a rough idea but neither is good enough to base any decisions.

Maybe we can get @gotembro to post some large photos?

Oh sorry I ugpraded to CE28's

Here is a good photo of them; these are pasti dipped via the rattle can btw


Looks like this

Really not the best; the black caps with the red looks good IMO

I do like ap2v1's they look great for stock wheels; but I love my 255 square setup now.
I had 215 fronts and 245 rears it would get sideways way to much.

The other option is to paint these wheels bright silver. As to the center cap, the OEM cap (close to $50 each) can be painted or Plastidipped with a black Honda Sticker or Vinyl Wrap applied on top. If the intent is to keep car completely stock, then the wheels have to match the year model of the car in my personal opinion. I do agree that these wheels are THE best wheels for the S2000. I am going to try to find a shop that does the diamond cut finish, the one guy I went to wanted $800 and said all 4 wheels had to be done at the same time in order for them to match.

I also like the 2008 model year wheels, they refresh the overall look of the car, but very hard to find! Can anyone share an option for an aftermarket wheel cap for this wheel, to pay $50 for an OEM replacement is financially painful.
