I thought about them for a SECOND
but too thin, too heavy and now that the CSX comes with them

prices will plummet & be "commonplace"

The type R wheels are real nice, but of course fine and rare wheels always have that originality to them

I had wished that the Type S wheels would be readily available... but just try to find a set. Nobody's asking a reasonable price for them. $500/wheel is what I was quoted. For wheel takeoffs. PLUS international shipping. No thanks Mr. Canadian-Acura-parts-hookup-guy.

You may be able to get a deal, being thousands of miles closer to the Canadian border, but I'm out of luck. Plus, now I have my red H's.

That looks really clean

Every time I see a pic of a taffy SI, it just makes the decision of buying a used red si or a new white si all that much harder =/
