Default Prelude rims and Type R rims...

I saw some pictures of an R with 5G Prelude rims and it looks really nice...My mom has a 5G Prelude and I may switch out rims with her this weekend (just to see how it looks)...My question is will the Prelude rims cause any detrimental damage to my R in any way??? And will the R rims be damaged by the Prelude since it's 15" and lighter??? Any opinion/advice is appreciated...Thanks...

my friend who has a 5G prelude used to have the gunmetal type r rims on his car..
which looked pretty good...
and he noticed that his car accelerated and stopped faster...due to less
rotating mass.
the only thing i can think of that will get hurt on your R is performance...since the lude rims
are heavier...
i think..
now he has some black Volk SE-37's...

Try ITR fronts and Prelude rears, you'll really get some attention
Also will give you an agressive stance.

I think the type r rims look way better than the prelude rims...prelude rims look like just any ordinary old rims while type r rims look like racing rims

Prelude SH wheels are quite nice, but actually weigh more than the curved ones...
