I think its good. IMO it raises the valve of the original. Sad part people get rip off if you dont know what you are doing.

nah the price of OG CF-48 will still stay the same
its not like they are hard to come by

and unless you really liked the original design...I doubt you are going to pay more for some fake ones with the real ones go for about the same amount.

Only thing that makes them that special is that they come with the Aero cover, that a lot of the real ones are missing

who honestly cares if you have real parts or fake parts? they do the same thing.... roll on the ground.


i can understand on race cars where weight and strength are needed. but on most of these cars on H-T, rotas will do the job fine on the hardparkers.

CF-48s and MR5s are a Civic/Mugen Beginner wheels
almost like rocking a beginner magnet on your car



Unless you have 15" cf-48
then its like rocking a a Elder magnet

yes, i agree with you on this one. as long as you are touting that they are mugen/ spoon/volk, etc. any other rims from rota from SEMA?

also, anyone know of any good exhaust shops that do mandrel bending in modesto, livermore area?

Whoa whoa...u should re-phrase that. It should sound something like, "If u rock a beat, unrestored set, w/ missing everything..."

Or let me ask u this: Owners of 16" MR5's are obviously "beginners" right?

And even then, thats kinda messed up to say period. MR5's look right at home on an EF, dont care if u just got into Hondas or have been around for years.

LOL

yeah I just threw that one together
I forgot to mention if they are 14" or 13" (which is what pop up more then 15" in CF-48) plus missing the center cap and aero disc. MR5 are usually missing the lug caps.
They are usually a Mugen "******" first wheel..and then they start moving up to RnRs and m7s


Now owners of 16" ones (complete) or Anniversaries are allowed to rock the Elder Badge
thats a whole another ball park
You obviously know what the hell you are doing if you got those

i bought my mr5's by accident. i bid on them on ebay and won them. but i did get a good deal, and they are in great shape Plus, I'm one of the few who like 14" wheels. Lighter weight, cheaper tires. Eventually I want a set of mf10l's in white with the red lettering. I think they would look nice on a red car
