Up for more RS Wats!! R Types are the sweetest wheel ever.
Unsure if these are all wats.
MmmMMMM Re01's baby
Look more like Panas to me:
I envy Mike Garret, and there are so many more pics.

Bringing this thread back from the dead.
I know I posted pics of the Panasport set I had on my CRX HF but they caused some serious shaking at highway speeds. That was before I realized they weren't sitting flush against the wheel rotor so they never sat correctly.
These Panasports came from a Miata owner/car which I know Miata wheels center bore holes are 54.1mm and our CRX's need to be at least 56.1mm to sit flush.
SO rather than hack at them with a Home Depot or whatever hole saw, I found a machine shop nearby that would bore out the centers to the right size. It was a bit pricey but in the end well worth it. I don't have to worry about them being jagged or off center, or any potential weaknesses or balancing issues.
Now they sit perfect and there's no shaking or shimming of any sort at any speeds.
I also found and cleaned up the original center caps.
I also painted the car since since the first set of pics I posted the car's clear coat was all flaking off and looked nasty all over. Just a few more touches and I'll be set. Anyway here's some pics I just took a few minutes ago. Will wash/wax it later to get better pics.
