these wheels shown here:

how much are they to buy and could they be bought new from Honda in gunmetal grey?

they come with 215/45/16 if they are used on a 01 USDM ITR would the wheels/tires upset the car at all???

yeah i'm sure it has been posted but i could not find any info, thanks for the help

 

Those are JDM ITR wheels, they are available in gunmetal. 17lbs.

 

really, would you know a price? and is 17lbs lighter then usdm wheels?

 

They are the JDM 16" Wheels. They run about $400+ per wheel. Aj-racing has them on special right now as a matter of fact.

17 pounds is more than the stock wheel. Stock is 15. something.

Go to www.IPSracing.com Give them a call they'll treat you right.

 

ok thanks for the answers , just one more.....
hows the handling on the car once installed, more weight and bigger tires???

 

Crappier in every way.

 

 

You won't feel a huge difference on the street and if you track your car just use your stocks there.

 

i really appreciate the quick answer, but what your saying is don't bother cause they are min of a $1000 right?

Edit: and there is some loss in proformance

Exactly.

 

For the money, I'd suggest getting an aftermarket rim, Lighter and forged Vs Heavier and Cast

 

thanks alot. just had to see what a smart peron would say, beside i had no idea how much they are (ouch $).

 

Those rims are made by Enkei. We in Europe have them on our ITR´s in stock but in 15inch.

 

Enkei of japan makes two very similar aftermarket wheels to the JDM OEM version shown above. Those are the NT03 and Tarmac. Check out http://www.enkei.co.jp/pro-mat/p-f.html to see images and info about their wheels. We are not able to get the Tarmac thourgh Enkei of America but we can get the NT03, it is called RCT-1, check out http://www.enkei.com/. Like every before said these wheels are really about looks as they are heavier than the good forged lightweight wheels. HTH.

True ... you can get aftermarket rims much lighter than the JDM's, as much as 6lbs lighter and you will still have some money in the pockets.
