Is it normal to have to wait this long to wheels to be delivered?

 

Depends on who makes them, what the demand is, where they are made and shipped from. I ordered Forged 5Zigen FN01R's had to wait until there was enough for a production run, 14 weeks from Japan!

 

Yea i Just ordered Advan RCII and the guy said he 'estimates' 8-10 weeks. omg... i want them like yesterday. what color did you go with?

 

damn those zigens are sexay too.

 

what size and offset?

 

those look like team dynamics

 

i assure you that they are advans i got them in 17x7.5 +45 offset

 

Good choice in wheels.

 

I ordered my Bronze Volks in April of 2006. They got to the US in November/December I think? I ordered my Time Attacks in November of 2006 and those arrived in the US in July of 2007. I MIGHT see them next week at my house.

REAL RARE JDM wheels take time. Normally it's 3-6 months. If they aren't in stock, they have to be produced. No such thing as overnight parts from Japan...

 

im thinkin im just going to order the hfp suspension upgrade this weekend. not sure yet though

 

I got lucky and Weaksauce had my wheels in stock. Otherwise it was going to be 8-12 weeks for them too...

I believe you, i was just remebering that design from 2000, team dynamics had a set like those.

We have custom colored Volk RE-30's for Team SGR 240SX and they are taking over 3 months- and we're sponsored by them. So, yeah, it takes a while.

Gotta wait for those containers!

 

it took 12 months for my Volks back in 2003.

I ordered another set 31 days ago. I ordered a set that was in stock so I would not have to wait. Even though they really weren't the color or size i wanted. Hopefully they will be here some time next week.

 

Taken from the B-day thread...........

Guess Advans are Stock


Hypocrisy at it's finest.

 

ill drive my car stock with some hfp suspension and a nice set of wheels

if you werent a mod id tell you to blow me. so ill just say reading owns you

 

cant we all just get along?

 

no because people here have selective reading disorder and some people have the i want to be an ******* just cuz im a bad *** on the internet disorder. im slowly weening myself off of this site. if only my regional people on h-t werent so cool i wouldnt ever post here.

 

it's ok maggot we love you still! I really don't think Hondata is going to crack the ECU, they never did for the TSX. What will be different this time?

 

why would you crack the ECU for the TSX? not enough aftermarket support, the cars were meant to be plush inexpensive 4 door acura's.... acura's entry level sedan, not exactly a performance powerhouse and there aren't people knocking down hondata's door for TSX stuff..

Civic Si is a different deal though (I know same intake, head, and DBW) but it has always been considered Honda's "performance" car (before the s2k) not to mention their affordability factor. These two things combined mean big interest in modifying the Civic Si.. just look on HT for example:

TSX section has a total of about 10k posts
06+ section has a total of over 70k posts

and the TSX has been out longer.. the interest and potential to make money is there.. hondata will crack the ECU
