old skooL

 

that pretty much sums it up, cept for maybe some RnR's

 

all great wheels...the m12's look the best on NS-x's though!

 

i never seen red mr5s. they look dope!!! where can i get a set? ive been thinkin bout powdercoating my ssr type x's red

 

I'm pretty sure those are powdercoated

 

cf48 and mr5 = the ugliest funking things i've ever seen, i mean are you kidding me? looks like more jdm bandwagon followers have lost all sense of taste again, lol

 

To each their own

 

i didnt mean to offend anyone or anything, im all jdm myself, im just saying look at those things, especially the cf48's, if they werent mugen the same people that like them now would be saying that they're ugly and would be making posts mocking them, i realize life is about trends and i already fell into the jdm one, but never am i gonna think those wheels look nice

 

i agree i dont like the cf48's i think they are horrid. but mr5's are dope. BTW what kinda rims u rollin on...rotas?

 

i have bronze mf8's, and ya i agree with the mr5, they arent that bad but honestly those cf48's are you kiddin me

 

mf8's ...i wouldnt sport those cf48s if they were free

 

CF48's are USDM wheels. made designed and sold in a US Market as Honda Optional Equipment.

dumbass.

 

so ur telling me that u only want them for that reason alone? the fact that they're MUGEN doesnt make you want them a little more. im not hating, i know people have their own tastes. but when people say function over fashion it makes me upset....cant u find some cheaper rims that serve the same function? i mean im a JDM *****, but im the first to admit that an amber climate control,cluster,clock..etc has no real function

i realize the design is for brake cooling, but when i point and laugh at a guy with those wheels and he yells at me "well atleast my brakes are getting cooled!" i still point and laugh, lol. listen, different strokes for different folks, to each his own, i just dont like em personally. let's all have a

 

i think im in love with the red mr5s

 

I would LOVE to see somebody prove this. If there's anyone out there running these wheels that actually races their car, please take some brake temp readings and compare them to readings with conventional wheels.

 

buy mine, then have the powdercoated

 

I want these! and i know there were rotas or some knock off of them.. any one know where i can get a set?

don't think so....Mugen designed the wheels orignally to be used in Japan and made them there...they were the wheel for Civic E-AT and CRX E-AS as well as City Turbo. the wheels have been around since 1984
back in the day honda was very much into its racing hertiage (F1) and so on. it sold many Mugen parts throught the dealerships to attract clients.
mugen designs are reflection of the time, such as
CF48 for 84-87 cars
MR5 for the 88-91 cars
RNR for 92-5 cars
MF8/MF10 for 96-01 cars

so whats looks good then doesn't mean will look good 15 years later. so people who bitch how the CF48 looks like, should know its 80's design which was supposed to be influenced by motorsport

Yeah, I can drive around hard all day and my 7-spoke Volks will be cool to touch as well. That's not exactly scientific evidence. I'm not saying they don't do what you say, I'd just like to see some proof instead of hearing everyone repeat the same thing over and over again with no actual facts to back it up.

 

"CF48 for 84-87 cars
