Re: race steelies (NA EJ1)
mmm. no. they look like a "deep dish" version of the stock steelies honda's come with, but more with a polished silver ish look to them. it is like you rim, but with the look of the stock honda steelies.

Re: (Br1anPham)
For the 4 bolt pattern, try the VW Corado steelies, they are light and strong. Comes in 15 inch, available at your local junkward or dealer, aren't that expensive either at the dealer.

I thought that you could not bolt on vw rims to anything but a vw.(4 lug) i heard that they are some odd lug pattern. I could ber wrong though.

well i'm not 100% on this...but i think the only reason the N1 CTR came with steelies is because honda knew it would be tracked and that the wheels/tires were going to be replaced with something lighter/stronger/better. the same reason they didnt put power steering, AC, radio, power windows, etc....because it would just be removed. so instead they can cut the luxuries (alloy wheels included) and sell it at a cheaper price.
i dont think CTR steelies are any different from the steelies you would find on another honda. get the element 16" steelies and be big pimpin y0!</TD></TR></TABLE>
See I just found this out as well last night.
I doubt if they're very light.

I'm using VW rims on my car right now. I've got some bent black ones for the snows, and the silver finish (look just like the CTR ones) for racing. The silver finish were off my 2nd gen jetta, I think they're the same type as the corrodo in 14", and they're lighter than the newer black style. I never put them on a scale, but they're lighter than the stock civic steelies, and you can get them at a VW dealer for less than $30.
Edit: My car is a 2000 civic coupe, VW is 4x100 and the 14" use the same tire size as the civic (185/65/14)
