what do VX wheels look like?

Slopoke

I just got a set of VX wheels with almost new tires for $150 bucks. The rim and tire together weigh 4 lbs less per wheel than my HX wheels. I cant wait to get them on my car.


VX wheels are 13s and HX wheels are 14s. They look pretty similar. I have a picture of my black HXs around here some where. When I find it, Ill post it up.

will the vx wheels fit over the integra rear disc brakes?

utensil

slopoke what was your procedure to paint the wheels?
did u use flat black paint?

my procedure is, clean, sand, primer, then paint

Slopoke

I cleaned them up real good, then used a scotch bright pad to scuff them up, then i just sprayed them with black primer. I didnt remove the tires, I just masked them off.
I tried actual paint on one, then decided that the primer looked better.

I havent decided what Im gonna do to my VXs yet.

Superflea,
Im pretty sure they will fit on the back. I have a friend who is looking for a pair for the back of his integ.

Slopoke

I think Im gonna hang to them for a while and see if I can scrounge up some money for some drag radials.

Slopoke, Since when have I had an Integ. Is that like half of a Integra. Maybe I have a Ra. J/K

Me and Slopoke have a wheel painting problem. He has painted his 3 differant color's and Mine have gone from white to black to gold to there current dark metallic silver. The only differance between me and Slopokes wheel's. He chooses to paint readily available HX wheels while I choose to paint out of production Racing Hart CP-F Evolutions.

Slopoke, I will call you Come to test and tune tomorrow and can I try those VX wheels friday


Nice dark and sinister. Just the way I like it.
