Looks so much cleaner with them in, its the small touches that make it so clean. Devil is in the Details. I always try to use OEM centercaps. Like it looks like it's a factory mod upgrade, like it should have come that way. The hood spoiler looks good too. That's probably one of the best lookin SSM's I have seen.

In my personal opinion i think the Silver/Black with the silver center caps looks pretty good.

But no i most likely wouldnt put them on those work rims.

why hate on the centre caps? they dont make the wheels look cheap at all.
its a honda car, why not put honda centre caps on the wheels? even if they arent honda manufactured.
the simplicity of the wheels means you can do things like that, and make it look good.
one of the best ssm's ive seen. keep it up i love it

More than likely you bought the work center caps if you bought those. I think the meisters look horrible without centercaps. And i think the SW388s look awesome with centercaps. The only cars i could understand not running centercaps on are actual track cars. I'll always run centercaps on my wheels if i can

It goes VERY well together, It looks clean and complete and like it should have been from the factory like that. Don't hate on a clean ass car. I have Ro-Ja LT5s on my accord, and none of the factory caps I have found fit over the hubs, so the exposed hubs may look racey, but it's just not as clean. I love it when a cop comes to give you shit about your mods, but can't tell if it wasn't a stock special package because it flows so well and looks right at home. And Work wheels come with center caps, as do most rims, but not the superlight race wheels.

SW388s don't look good without centercaps. Why? They were never sold with centercaps to begin with.



Diff cup of tea I guess.

just paint your hub and part of the rotor with engine enamel paint. then it will look real nice without the caps. i use matte black duplicolor paint. you can buy them at most autoparts stores.

i personally dont use centercaps on tuner type wheels. to me it looks much better without.
