I have the 18 x 7.5 SSR GT-1 Integrals for sale. They have a =45mm offset. $800 for all four. Let me know if you're interested... They are 5-lug and they were on my 2000 Accord V-6, so I think they will fit the RSX....

Can you tell me what's the width of the SSR 16" and 17" wheels? TKS! I like SSR a lot too but I like TypeC(Competition).

Typically the offset on SSR wheels is 45mm, which should be a good fit. Here is what I am saving up for:

I just ordered Enkei RPO1 in 17x8 (the only size in 17 that had right offset and could accomodate Falken Azenis 225/45ZR17).
Should be on the car in about a week or so - will try to post pics...
I'm hoping that they aren't too wide and cause problems with fender rub or any suspension issues...

I'm sorry, but I really think the Mugen car looks like ***. The RSX needs that grill opening in the front to make it look good, and that body kit makes it look like its smiling at you. For christ sake its not a neon.

i good one everyone overlooks is the OZ superleggera.

the 17x7 in +45 weigh in at..drum roll... 15.4lbs.

and i believe they cost around $259 USD.

very nice but i might go with the Kosei k1/buddyclubs they weigh in at 16-16.5 lbs for the 17x7 in a +43.

A new one i just heard about was a casted version of the Buddyclub QF called the SF, don't know how much they weigh but if it's around 16lbs those are it.
