Worst advice of 2009 folks.

Those are the hottest 4 lug wheels out there imho. I would personally avoid doing the 5 lug swap unless you can match or top those wheels in 5 lug.

For a street application where the better brakes are not essential, I would not change a thing (other than get rid of that front clip)

[Roll Eyes] You probably come from a place where chrome Cobra R's are still cool [Roll Eyes] This is one of the cleanest coupes in the Bay Area because of those rims! I'd swap my 5-lug to 4-lug if I could get my hands on a set of rims like these too.

J24i...if you do take 89 306's advice...I got some black fr500's for you [Big Grin]

I think I am gonna be the only one that does not like the rims. Well I like the style but they seem too fat, almost cartoonish. Especially in the 4th pic. but overall the car is nice and the rim style is cool. Just the size kills it for me.

Hey it's all good bro. I could see how you would think they're cheap rims with all the ADR, MMR, Motegi's that follow the same black mesh with polished lips design etc...Although I have seen these in person on a Honda once, they are typically sittin on 03-04 cobras, supras, & vipers...More then just an expensive set of rims. Light weight, forged, stamped ARP rivet bolts, fully custom offsets available, and the step lip quality really shows. I've messed around with my share of cheap and nice rims on the car.

The reason why people get a little bent by your statement is because they would not "belong on a civic or integra", just like they wouldn't typically be seen on a foxbody. Brand new these run more then the average foxbody or used honda/acura sells for, which just isnt practical.

That "cartoon" look was actually what I was going for. They look fat because of the offsets and the fact they dont stick out of the rear fender. There are fox's running bigger tires, mine are only 275's. If you're talking about the deep dish look, Step lips on rims actually make lips look wider then they really are. I would say the average 18x10 deep dish bullets or FR500 has a bigger lip.

Thanks for the kind words Luke. Did you decide on rims yet for the Cobra?
