Icon2 which wheels are these-I need center caps

these 13" alloys came with an 89 hatch I bought, 3 of the 4 center caps were bad and they are all aftermarket center caps. I can't seem to find any pics of them anywhere, I'm pretty sure honda made more than just one set of these things...

ok, I have found that they are definitely stock EF/CRX wheels, does anyone happen to know a part number for the center caps, or anywhere I can get ahold of some aftermarket ones?

There could be slight possibility that 90-91 prelude directional wheels center might work.

once you find caps, you are also going to need crx si lugnuts.

Can't use regular lugnuts, cause they stick out to far and then you can't get the cap covers on them.

lol

Thanks for the heads up on the lug nuts, I do have them, whether or not I remember that when I'm trying to figure out why the caps don't fit, is another story entirely...

That's a possibility about the prelude, I'll have to see if I can find those too. CB accord caps are definitely too big, and of course there are plenty of those to be found haha

If they are CRX wheels this cap should work but I not possitive, its #13 on the list (most other models show it as discontinued)

http://www.hondapartscheap.com/parts...sis/wheel-disk

The exploded diagram also shows how the cap goes on, it looks like other peices are needed too (20, 15 and maybe even 19).

I can't find any 2 sources that agree on what car/trim level it came from. I found one center cap that seems to proportionally the same from one of the center cap places online, but they haven't replied yet on the diameter on the mounting tabs of theirs.

Grog, I'm not sure what the difference is between the si cap and the other one that is in the diagram, but I don't have the notches for the four metal tabs.

If it gets down to it, I guess I could make a mold and make new ones...I'm going to be painting the wheels anyway so ditching the metal skin wont hurt my feelings too bad :/

Wouldn't surprise me if they were EX wheels, wasn't that the sedan, with the larger MC?

look more like 90/91 prelude wheels.

Not crx I've got 88/89 and had a set of 90/91 crx and those are not it.
