Default RSX Type R Rims...

I was wondering if anybody has tried putting the JDM 17" RSX Type R rims on a Yellow ITR... If anybody has done it... can you post up some pictures here... I would really like to see how it looks... Also... was wondering if anybody knew how much it would cost to powdercoat it gunmetal because I dont want white rims for a yellow car...

First of all, yes they fit and it has been done. Secondly they come in gunmetal as well.

Do they look pretty nice?
And the gunmetal ones... I've never seen them... are they like the 16" JDM Type R rims... much more rare than the CWs?
How much do the gunmetal ones run for because I think I can get the CWs for under a $1000...

I ask again ...what is an RSX Type R?? Never heard of it!! Is it similar the once infamous white unicorns that use to prance about freely through our forests once upon a time?

Wow... I really like the gunmetal... have you seen them on a DC2R? Im thinking about getting them... Or would you recommend not getting them? A lot of people on this forum seems to dislike any rims that are bigger than 16". What do you think about 15" OZ Supperleggras? Also... I really want to find some gunmetal 16" JDM ITR rims... does anyone know where I can get a set?

The EP-R wheels look nicer IMHO.

Yeah... them are nice too... its just that i know someone who has the CW DC5R Rims for sale... I don't know if I really want them though... because the rims that I've always wanted were the OZ Superleggras or JDM 16" ITR Rims... Its just so hard to find the Superleggras and the ITR rims are impossible to find in a gunmetal color... I only see the CWs for sale... ugh...

I'd quetion the handling with 17" wheels. My car has a steering radius of a Toyota 4-Runner, with 16" wheels....but if that's not an issue, then go for it.

Sorry, I don't mean to be funny, but the 4Runner actually has a tighter steering radius than the R. I wouldn't have believed it before I bought a 4Runner to tow.
