like i said.. i have no clue about this shit so id rather ask than order the rong wheels n look like a complete idiot. this way i only look sorta stupid.. hahaha
What kind of look are you trying to pull?
These wheels are very popular for the "stancers" and Hellaflush kids.
And you mentioned about Not stretching tires.
You can fit them, but they'd be super mexipoke
especially some of the x9's (depending on your offset)

If your looking for function these rims are not good to run with. Yes they're cheap, yes they come in whatever size you want, but take into consideration the weight of these rims. They're hella heavy without tires.Originally Posted by CALI-HATCHIN310
That's what im saying for there size they are boat anchors!!!!!

so would u guys say i should just stick with my 16x7s sportmaxx wheels?
Yeah dude just stick with them. They're way lighter. If anything save up for real rims or get rotas. All you really need to do is wait and search other forums for wheels. Shit, I got my 16x8 bbs rs for 600. That's cheaper than a set of new even some used rotas.
Just be patient young grasshopper haha
ight sounds good.. thanks for the info!
Yeah I went to order a set of these like 2 years ago, they were going to be 28 lbs EACH. GROSS. Hahaha
Is that with tires on them?

LOL nope. They are what they are. Diamond racing STEELies. 16x8.5 +30 was going to be about 28 lbs. I wanted to vomit
I saw an ef with 16x10 and he said they were literally over 30 lbs no tires
yeah, they're super heavy. for a track wheel i'd look for some basic sized RPF-1's or Kosei K1's. i wouldn't go any larger than 16", and i'd put some really nice tires on them. standard sizing in the used honda market is usually 15x7 or 16x7, and cheap. put a sticky 205 on it and go racing. i think those two wheels will give you the best bang for your dollar. you could certainly go wider while maintaining performance as your primary goal, however, it's going to cost you.
i ran K1's on my first civic, 15x7, and i got them for $200. threw some azenis 215's on them and had lots of fun.
