i heard FROM A FRIEND that a local honda dealership was seeling authentic typ-r wheels for alittle over 100 dollars a wheel. i think that is really really cheap for a type-r wheel. can someone verify this for me please. im not saying he's wrong, i just highly doubt its gonna be that cheap for some 'jdm bling'

 

There is no way type-R wheels could cost less than 100 dollars.
Unless you bought them from a crack head.

They don't sell authentic type-r wheels, but some dealers do sell wheels that look like the 02+ Civic Type-R wheels but they are in 16s. They're in the FP kit for the civics I think.

 

Yeah the FP kit comes with those rims.

 

okay, haha i win...you know who you are. thanks guys

 

no way in hell authentic type r rims run 100/piece.

 

I paid 1800 dollars for mine, so I highly doubt you can get them for over 100 dollars a peice.

 

The RSX Type R wheels appear to be the same as the OZ F1 wheels.
So if you get the OZ F1 wheels, which were also standard on the Evo 5, then you get the TypeR wheels.

It's cheaper to get the OZ F1 wheels.

 

yo,

i think there is no point to change to type r rims.they are f heavy-9kg per rim.I drive a jdm itr dc5 over here.I bought a set of volks to have better unsprung weight.Type rims only cost about 1000 sing dollars for 4 over here. Think before u wanna spend that 1800 us for 4 heavy rims.

 

some people are into that jdm thing like me. speaking of which i have a set of dc5-r rims for sale in the classifieds you jdm people. 1600.00 excellent condition

no they're not. they look nothing like dc5-r rims. dc5-r rims have total of 10 spokes(split 5) the OZ F1's have total of 12 spokes and are split 6.
the rims that ''look'' like dc5-r rims are the NAKAYAMA RSX5 rims that come in silver.
