Default What model rim is this from?

I've seen these only a couple of times and like them alot but have never seen a set of these for sale ever. Were these a dealer option? I've only seen like a single rim being sold and never a whole set on ebay. They look like mini versions of the 4x114.3 ITR rims minus the center caps that stick out.

Nope. These are HX's and they only have 7 spokes and HX's have 8 with a different spoke design.

I don't really see alot of people rocking these as much as HX rims and personally think they look cleaner then HX rims but not sure how much they weigh? I know besides VX rims HX rims are one of the lightest OEM rims that'll fit in civics. So I'm assuming that either there really heavy for there 14" size or that there harder to find being that there a dealer optional rim that nobody rocks these?

last time i check u could get it on ebay for cheaper than from the honda dealer.
those do look nice. i think they come as optional wheels like said above and i think most or some 2003 - 2004 Civic Coupe has them because i saw it on a red civic coupe at the dealership.

The canadian HX's came with those 7 spoke wheels. My friend just picked up a set at the local pick and pull and they're pretty light. I see them all the time around here, I'll ask him if he's taken any pics yet...

Yeah thats where I got the picture from was on ebay but some place was only selling a single rims for like 100 for one. I'm looking for a 14" 6,7 or 8 spoke rim that kinda look like RS watanabes. I'm thinking maybe these stock VW rims and paint them flat black and ditch the center caps. I found a nice set of 4x100 black racing rims that I really want that are only 400 but don't have the cash for them so I'll make something close to them. How bout these in black without a center cap?

Those black racing rims are really tempting though and are pretty cheap for how much passwordjdm sells them for or memoryfab when they get some in and there like almost double the price. *fights with hand to keep from getting credit card from wallet*

The VX are lighter then the HX being that their 13's but tire selection is pretty slim for some performance wise and atleast for the HX you can get Azenis. VX rims=tires?

Just voicing my opinion... I don't like those BR rims up there. I'd rather have the HX's or even the HX look alikes you found.

Very expensive from what ive heard. You can get em off of the new hybrid civics or the 4 dr civics. Ive never seen them with that particular center cap, usually its with one thats embedded within the rim. I think they are sick as **** and people refer to them as the "NEW HX" wheel.
Peace

Does anyone have a pic of these on an EG? I've never seen these on one before so that why I was interested in these since there something different beside the HX which everyone wants.

Correct. They are 7th gen HX wheels.
