What are these rims called? Does anyone have a nice pic with these rims. How would they look on a slammed 99 vsm ej8? I would be paying a little over $500 for these rims. Are rota boosts replicas of these, how much would OEM rims differ pricewise compared to Boosts? BTW, rota does not have price listings on their site that i'm aware of.
Thx

 

i seen them before. probably the sports wheels for the 96-00 civic back then

15" 6-spoke wheel

 

6-spoke 15" wheel is such a dull name. Thx, I thought they might have a more recognizable name, something allong the lines like "phat fives" or "blades", etc.
Here are the boosts:

 

not that i know of... i have only seen them on a few cars, i dont think are common and popular enough to be given a recognizable name

 

I've seen those wheels on the 2001-2005+ Hybrid Civics not sure what the beginning year model was. It fit perfect as I'd seen it commuting home from work. I'm assuming those wheels are mated to the hybrids. Don't take my word for it, just check it out. Lovely looking wheels though i must say, I could picture them in bronze.

Summary "may have been optional for the 02-05 hybrids" research it.

 

Rota Boost is a copy of the Advan RG. Also, I'm pretty sure the Honda wheels are made by Enkei (their other wheels are).

The biggest advantage that the Rotas have is you can order them in a bunch of various sizes and offsets. The OEM wheels are narrow and high offset, which limits the tire sizes you can put on, and your wheels will also be super sunk.

 

I believe they might be for an '01-'05 Civic.

If you go to Honda you should be able to look through the accessories manuals for them.
No, they're not an optional wheel for '96-'00 Civics.
H and A lists parts according to what fits, not what models it was made for.


As a side note, I personally think they're kind of ugly (at least thinking of them on a 6G Civic).
