to clear some obvious confusion....some LS's had the GSR wheels put on them for one reason or another. As I checked, there were no LS Special Editions after 96 so that couldn't have been why. Everywhere I looked, people started calling the 97 GSR wheels "LS Meshes" simply because they saw some Integras at dealerships with those on......thinking they were actual premium LS wheels Thus gave birth to the "LS Mesh" term. But....if you look at the actual parts list....say here:

https://www.acuraautomotiveparts.org/

Model: Integra, Year: 1997, Trim Level: 3Dr LS, Emissions and Transmission: doesn't matter which one...just pick one, System/ Component: Wheel.

You will find in the picture on the upper right hand corner...the picture of the GSR Mesh wheels. BUT before anyone says " but you did a search for an LS ", go look at the PART LISTINGS.....the wheel is #4. Nowhere on the list is #4 shown, meaning it is NOT a part designated for the LS model ( even though it bolts on just fine ).

Now go back and repeat the search for the GS-R. #4 is listed as a GSR part.
Even with this info posted....people are still going to call them damned wheels "LS Meshes"
Its like calling an LS Integra a Type R because someone put the JDM front end on it ok ok...maybe not that extreme

It's because they came stock on the 98-01 GS and LS. So it's more common to see them on an LS than it is for GSR, since that only ran for 97. Sorry about not answering your question...

Ok I found an answer...They're 65mm you can find them on ebay if you're looking for replacements.

But yeah if you do a search on acuraautomotiveparts.org for any LS from 98-01 those same wheels come up as the wheels for that car. So it's not incorrect to say LS mesh at all...it just came on the 97 gsr first.

65mm sounds too big to me, just a heads up.

GSR blades are approx. 2.25 inches in diameter. I would think the "LS mesh" center cap is the same.

Yes, I will continue to call the wheels "LS mesh" because at this point there really is no point trying to correct anyone. Most people know what wheel we are talking about when "LS mesh" is mentioned. No sense in adding more confusion to the mix.
