Anyone know anything about these? I picked them up my local forum on a whim. Definitely ugly but they're so ugly that i like them. I wanna see a pic of them on a car. Can anyone deliver?



[edit] This was his photo. They don't have tires now.

 

slap them on. then take a pic.

 

Tires are off. Won't help me.

 

these rims orginally came on the 1st gen CRX and I believe came on the hf model.

edit: you can go outside and jack up your car and place them on to see how they'll look

 

They came on 88-91 USDM crx's & maybe JDM as well. I've wanted a set since '89. Send them to me & I'd be happy to send you pics of them on my ED.

 

you are correct, but thought they came on the 2nd gen. crx as well

 

im not 100% but i think ive only ever seen them on 1st gens. Could be wrong tho.

 

Ive only seen those on 1986-87 CRX si models. Rare but ugly as sin.

 

I'm new to this whole forum thing, but i think i attatched a pic.

 

Correct! On both counts! They are USDM 86-87 CRX Si only. The 85 CRX Si wheels were different, and much nicer looking, as well! IIRC first gen HF's had steelies, standard.

I've seen pictures of 1st gen CRX's in other markets that had them, as well.
But in the US, they only came standard, on the 86-87 CRX Si.

 

I can't view the pic for some reason. Argh.

Thanks for the info guys. If I can find some tires for them, they'll probably go on as winter rims. I should probably mention that they're going on a 2000 Civic LX sedan. Could be interesting. Unique at least. I might polish them since there's a lot of flat surface to work with/

 

Those are known to many as "phone dials" cause they sorta resemble an old rotary phone dial.

 

 

About time someone put some CORRECT information in this thread.

Dial rims or something like that is their nickname.

 

sp33, i was gonna post that you jerk!! haha
wagons on them.


the actual pic i had been searching for lol. soooo sick IMO.

ever since that, ive loved phone dials.

 

wow those rims dont actually look as bad as i thought lol... especially on the slammed wagon... i would like to see the crx slammed with them too

 

ive seen these before ugly but i dig them do you want to sell them.

 

(first post by a long time reader btw)

Well gee, i dont think there THAT ugly, i quite like them in fact



especially if you give them some love

(btw, yes i love digging up old threads)

 

Dude, those are SEX in white. Got pics of them on a car?

I still have the set right beside me, actually. All I've done is take the crappy tires off and clean them up a little. I sanded some bad oxidation off the insides too. Two have bent edges. One is much worse than the other but they'll still hold a bead well. I was thinking about polishing them but now I dunno.

 

Yeah, sorry about the screwy lighting on the picture, cheap camera. There Verrry white.

No pictures on a car, but as soon as i get some new rubber for them ill post a picture of um on my 92 hatch

i was originally going to polish them to a mirror like old school mags, but then i thought of white, and im glad i did haha.

 

I LOVE THE UGLYNESS!!!

 

i have one and yes i mean only one on my parts 2nd gen crx

 

i think in white they look good, as few people said they are called "phone dials" and i have also heard people call the bottons, because they kind look like a botton

 

Some is my locAl craigslist was selling them for $70. Wish I had got them now

 

ha ha, i had an extra set of those a couple summers ago and threw them on this 90 crx si i bought for $450

As mentioned, the dial rims came stock on 1st gen crx Si in 86-87 only!!
