i asume you are going to want the H black again i have a trick for that. put some black paint in a cup(you can use spray paint just spray till it pools up) and take a paint brush get paint on it till its dripping and slowly "fill" the area up with paint by letting it drip or run off the brush. thats how i did my CRX button center caps with red. works awesome

I used the same to do my Red H's on my HX's .

the tires look stealth, they reall look good from behind, 205 really look more aggressive. the ride is much better than my snow tires.
