Re: OEM EJ and EG rare and optional Parts
Not sure if there even is a nickname for these wheels. They're fairly uncommon, so it's not like there are enough of them outside of Japan to have a nickname. I'm not sure about the EDM market...I understand that these may be available in 15" there. I got these imported from Japan.

^those are snowflakes.
those JDM wheels don't really have a nickname. so uncommon.
I like "eg6 webs", or "JDM webs"....
they look like a spider web to me.

Re: OEM EJ and EG rare and optional Parts
everyone calls rims different things. Just because they're snowflakes over there, doesn't mean it's wrong. or that I'm saying they're wrong. or that there "can't be a rim in America called snowflakes"
or that they're not snowflakes here.
people call rims what they think they look like, then as trends form they become known. Obviously the trend "is" known over there, because there are more of them.
and "not" known here because they're so rare.
Also, Do they "have" the integra "snowflakes" there? if so, what do "they" call them" ?
I can google enough, and honda-tech enough and find every rim called the wrong thing. what is your point?

Re: OEM EJ and EG rare and optional Parts
We need an official name. :D
If someone mentions Sir wheels, si wheels, hx wheels, ls mesh, vx wheels, gsr blades etc. We automatically know what there talking about.
I guess finding a name for them, is as hard as finding a set of them. lol.

Re: OEM EJ and EG rare and optional Parts
They are eg6/eg2 sir optional access "snowflakes" at least thats what they are known as here in the uk and i have seen these called the same on various delsol owners (uk and us) forums.
I still have mine, fungus don't lose those center caps they are really hard to find.

Re: OEM EJ and EG rare and optional Parts
well spotted i never noticed that, and that would explain why the one odd one is slightly raised when fitted lol. aleast i have the other 3 though,
i found a friend who knows fireblades inside out and he sorted my bike out so i never needed to sell my "snowflakes" in the end which i'm actually pretty pleased about as they do look on the sir.
i still think the civic is worth buying for spares you never know when you might need some parts, you never know i might even do it up! and £150 thats a bit of a bargain

Re: OEM EJ and EG rare and optional Parts
Nice find !! I've never seen the top pic before and from I can see on my phone it looks to be a jdm civic that's been imported to the uk (see licence plates and the UK peugeot 206 in the background) . The lower image is a common one from the jdm brochure, still any decent photos like the one above are still hard to find.

Re: OEM EJ and EG rare and optional Parts
I'd post pics of them on the car as well, but I still don't have tires for them. I'm torn right now...I love my EVOs and I'm a sucker for white on white.
