Please someone, buy my rims
Even though they look slightly like lids for bins
They look really good when going round and round
And are a nice way to separate the car from the ground

They are nice and rare and JDM
So throw away your inhibitions and 'Carpe diem'
Among your peers you'll be a hit
With rims as common as rocking horse jobby

For civics, rex's, tegs and ludes
or mazda, mini and VAG dudes
Whether you're a noob or a real wheel-whore
These'll fit providing you're 4x100 or 114

And if you're a fan of a polished dish
and a slammed, tucked broken suspension look is your wish
the offset on these is 35
so they'll need spacers for your dream to come alive

Condition I'd say is 8 out of 10
The rims could do with a polish again
They balance, hold air, I'm nitpicking though,
They're buckle free and ready to go

Ignore the haterz, the conformists and the gloaters
Don't just get yourself a boring set of Rotas
Stand up, stand out, have originality
Get yourself a set of Enkei Racing D


Hello all,

I no longer have a car these fit and would like to sell these wheels to fund building a prelude track project I plan for the spring.

I'd say the condition is around 8/10, there's no kerbing or dents but the rims could do with repolishing and lacquering - they pass the 10ft test with flying colours though. If anyone is interested I have cleaned up the worst rim and taken some pictures that I can email.

2 tyres are bald on the inside from camber, and the other 2 are cheap and offer little real world grip in the wet - so I'll include them but I'm not including them in my price.

The 90degree metal valve stems are present and correct.

Size is 15", offset 35 IIRC - pcd is 4x100 & 4x114.3 so they'll fit civics, crx's, 4g preludes and 96 spec tegs too.

I want £350 for them. They're still possibly the only set in the UK.

The wheels are currently in Bournemouth but I can also bring them up to my place in Oxford or my parent's in South London.

Thanks for looking,


Dave

I wish everyone sold shizzle like that! :lol:

Rep for that and good luck with the sale indeed! Although you may want to check the selling rules before the best for sale thread I've ever read gets pulled ;-)

Great thread!

They look far too period to separate from that lovely CRX though. It looks a million bucks.

Even if it might drive better on a 45 offset...

Thanks for the comments, the wheels are at my dad's house in Bournemouth and I live in Oxford so I can't do the whole paper/name thing today. I could probably do it in a week or two when I next visit him. I'll post some pics of the worst wheel a bit later when I'm at my laptop.
Unfortunately the crx has been sold now. I sold it to a mate with a set of Mugen RNR's. He hated these wheels lol. I really miss that car but it needed work and at the time I needed a reliable car so I sold it to a mate who wanted to fix it up. I now have an ep3 but miss my old crx so much it hurts. He now uses it for trackdays :(
In the spring my mum plans to replace here jdm 4thgen lude with something else. I'm planning on turning it into a track toy and need to start looking for bits like coilovers and a seat etc. I'd use these wheels but it's already got some BKs on it.
