Those look pretty good. If you're a fan of OEM wheels though, you could probably get a used set of 124s for that price or even less.
I've got 124s already. You mean on Ebay? Thing is trackrack mounts and balances the wheels, and might be nice to run something else.

Honestly, it doesn't look bad.
But I see a lot of this style on a civic. Of course with smaller size.

Beauty is in the eyes as they say, but the price is a bit steep for winter runners. I paid 100 a wheel at tire rack for a 5 spoke that sort of resembled the wheels on my 545 sport. They are great from a balance standpoint.

I like those but IMHO maybe too much like 124s already. Winters are long in Chicago, say December thru March. A 1/3 of year. Oh well, there is nothing but choices.
