Default Honda/Acura Wheel Database is now up (Submit a picture and win free stuff)

I finally got around to finishing up the Honda/Acura Wheel database.

http://www.fatboyraceworks.com/wheels/

There is a couple of cool things about this database:

Pictures! We are trying to collect as many pictures as is possible!

Stock Wheels Lists wheels that originally came on a specific car

Possible Wheel Fits Automatically Searches for other wheels that will likely fit

Possible Car FitsWhen viewing wheel information, returns a list of cars it will probably fit on

Specifications We try to track as much information as possible! We've got wheel weights, offsets, backspacing, widths all in one place!

Fitment Information We keep track of what wheels have been tested on what car, so if we know something does or doesn't fit, we'll let you know.

Power Search Can search for wheels match a specific critiera: example: backspace, diameter, width, number of spokes, nicknames (i.e. twisties, "si", etc.)

Relational Database Everything has linked relationships, is really easy to browse different wheels. Click a wheel to see what it was OEM equipment on and what other cars it should fit, then can click on a car to see what was OEM on it and what wheels shoudl fit, etc.

User contributed content We actively promote user contributed content: pictures of wheels and cars, weights, fitment feedback (92-95 del Sol wheels fit 88-91 CRXes), as well as database corrections.

Some links:

Acura's

Honda's

del Sol Car Car Information
Fat Fives Wheel Information Page

We've got a pretty good start on it, but it is definately a work in progress. We are looking for help in certain key areas: if you have pictures of a wheel that we don't, or have the denotation (i.e. 5.5-J14 OFF45) from the inside of a wheel, please let us know with the form at the bottom of the wheel information page. I also don't have a lot of information yet on cars like Accords, Preludes, RSX, etc. So am looking for people to submit images and tech info on them if possible.

Also if you know a certain wheel fits on a certain car, please let us know by clicking the 'Fits' column for that particular wheel and car combination and fill out the form.

To help things get going, I'll offer a promotion: If you submit a picture of a wheel, send us updated information we don't currently have, or send us fitment information about a wheel / car combination you'll be entered to win a free Honda hat. I have three new hats sitting here.


Also coming soon: Wheel indentification wizard. By entering some key information like number of spokes, diameter, center cap (yes/no), number of bolts, thickness of spoke, directional, etc. we'll help you automatically identify a wheel! Pretty cool, so if you know what a wheel looks like but don't know what it is called or what car it came from you'll be able to figure that out here shortly. Probably will be a couple of weeks, but should be killer when it is up.
