Ok so my 92 Ex now has 2 bent stock rims, and it's really starting to affect ride performance at 50+mph. I am looking for some cheap but good replacement rims. Should I get/would 92 oem coupe rims fit? I like the look and I am sure they would be much cheaper than paying $800 for some rims that my car doesn't deserve


TIA

Phire


EDIT: I did do the silverstar 9005 replacement and Im loving it!

 

how about 5 gen ex alloys??

 

Look for some 01 Se wheels those are pretty hot.

 

I went through the same problem, 2 bent rims, needed a stock replacement. Unfortunately at the time I couldn't find some used oem rims for a good price, so I ended up getting "rage breakers" at discout tire direct. A simple $85/rim 15" solution that looks close enough to stock for me, plus free shipping. Of course I'd like to get 17's, but due to my neighborhood sucking, I can't.

 

Where is a good place to find these rims? FS boards? Ebay? or just local ?

 

if you paid 300 bucks+ for a sets of oem rims,, you are paying too much imho.

 

get some acura cl rims... or 5th gen alloys,, i like those 2 the best imo.

the green accord has prelude si rims... and the 5th gen alloys you have pictured are the 5th gen alloys.

what is this clay bar you speak of?

 

It is a clay bar that is used with quick detailer to remove particles from your paint like grime and stuff that will not wash off.

Yup Meguiars

 

hrm. Not a fan of the whole black rim thing, wish they weren't painted. So any SE rim 4th gen and up will fit the 4th gens?
