I suppose I agree with you. As it turns out, I'm not hard headed, so I am open to other people's opinions/reasons for doing whatever they do. I suppose the look has grown on me the second time around. I still do not approve of the color combo, but I can agree that it is not ricer.
Haha thanks. I agree that TA is not the best on Silverstone. My wheels were already painted black, so I figured throwing $10 at this project couldn't hurt.

Unfortunately, being a poor college student, I don't have the cash for another set of wheels. I'm gonna leave the red for a bit, just to change things up a bit.
If you like it then leave it, but I think you could make it look a lot better by painting the center cap black to match then have someone at a sticker shop make red H's to put on the center cap and re-do the red stripe so it looks like it came that way

If you do that it will still be cheap and look 100X's better IMO

Looks good man. You were working with what you have. So many people are so quick to call something rice when almost any mod on a s2000 could be considered "rice". Hell, to allot of people a s2000 in general is rice!!!

After all the haterade I was going to defend you but after taking a look at the second pic I have to agree that it's rice.

If your going to put a lip on the wheel by using a sticker, at LEAST make sure that it follows the conture of the outer edge. You can tell even from a distance where you botched the edges.

Idea = ok
Application of idea = not so ok
