You need spider caps, that would really finish the look. I personally would go for a contrasting color like bright red, or Ford blue, then pinstripe the car in the same color 50s style! +rep for going for it!

Looks cool, but would look awesome if the car was slammed scraping ants!

If the spun stainless steel disc type full coverage wheel covers would fit you would have a 50s lakester look.... It looks a lot better than I would have believed it would have..... I have to admit, I Like It.

It's definitely different. Not sure it flows well with the car though.

Props for being creative. I think it will look better with lower side walls. Not my cup of tea though.

+1 on that! Would look bad-ass tucking tire. Paint them French Blue and stripe it to match! Whose black GD is that in the background?

Ha! Ha! Just today, I was looking at my Fit and daydreaming about how it would look w/ whitewalls on the stock wheels!! I must say that I was thinking about "pinstripe" width though, not retro wide. At any rate, it's a different look, I think it would look cooler w/ some type of chrome center hubcap...baby moon type perhaps??

It looks alright. What would really make it look nice is if the steelies where deeper and the car was lower.

Well I am drawn to it again and still like it..... I'd like to see some shots of it after dark... A flash would really look gangster big time with the whitewalls.
