Default Millenia Rims on, all i got to say is WOW! (56k beware)

sup folks, yes I got the millenia rims on here are the pictures... I went to pep boys and bought conical 12 x 1.5 lug nuts and I got aircraft remover, to remove the paint of the millenias I also bought a wired brush... then I went to auto zone and bought like this dark blackish wheel paint and a bottle of clear coat, took us about 3 hours to get them done, it was all worth it... about the ride all I gotta say is god damn! the steering wheel response is sweet cant wait till I hit the autocross, and I was launching at 5k rpms and they grabbed right away... I even noticed a change in the acceleration... the tires are falked azenis 205/50/15 and the wheels weigh about 11.5 lbs I got the rims for $187 on ebay and got the tires for $70 a piece... all I got to say is that this combo is very bad ***.. I got a lot of props from people from school, they said it was a smart idea on the looks and the performence... I owe it all to the folks on honda-tech

now just imagine how much better it would be on a lightweight 15x7 wheel - the azenis love a wide wheel.

They look waay better than Rotas, and are cheaper too

the tires look pretty pinched on there - how is the steering response??

that looks awesome.... especially for a do-it-yourself mod.... a question i had though, is did the wire brush scratch the rim at all, or did the paint just come off?? we are thinking of doing the same type of thing to my friends rims and just want to make sure we do it right the first time....

nope the wire brush did not scratch the rim at all... thats what we were afraid of but a guy here on the integra forums used the same brush and it worked out fine, as it did for us ...



tires grip the road hella nice
