Default Stupid question about rims POLL

Ok, this might be a stupid question but I thought I'd throw this out there...

I have hubcaps on my xB right now. I would like to do something a little nicer than plastic but I have no budget right now. What I do have is a set of alloys off a 97 Accord. Will this 4-bolt pattern work on the box? If so, would it look better to paint these black and put them on my PW box or are the hubcaps still better?

*UPDATE*

Apparently, these won't work... (Thanks Chupa...thingy)

Now, would you keep the caps (I don't like them) or would you take them off and just go with steel wheels.

The answer is they wont fit anyway...

Those are a 4x114.3 not a 4x100 like your xB.

Go with the steelies, and take a look at the Bling Trim Rings thread in Wheel & Tire for how to make it look good.

Indeed! Here is the link: https://www.scionlife.com/forums/vie...710&highlight=

I did it last week, and I am loving it, and have gotten some compliments on it.
