They look like Honda's take on Mercedes wheels.

I don't think I'd paint them. Maybe have them refinished though.

heres a article i read about the honda city turbo
CITY TURBO RACING

Mugen and Honda ran a single make racing series using the city turbos. The cars were based on the production vehicles as were the motors. The motors had larger exhaust, injectors, production type turbo (with 22psi), production type intercooler, and a modified camshaft. These cars did the standing 1/4 mile in 13.5 seconds (which isn’t bad for a frontwheel drive car set up for circuit racing). They ran very fat tyres (9” front and 7” rear). The official mugen figure for power output is 138+hp @ 5500rpm but the torque is around 22kgm @ 3500rpm (standard twin cam VTEC 1600 has 16kgm, NSX V6 has about 28kgm). It takes little work to produce these power figure in a street motor. The cars from the one make racing series were bought by an Australian entrepreneur with the view to continuing the series in Australia. Unfortunately all the vehicles were in a wharehouse in Osaka waiting to be shipped when an earthquake struck and buried the lot.

The guy that is selling them to me is insistant that they are from a JDM (?!?) Civic VTi. I didn't know the VTi was offered in Japan.

I would not feel safe riding in that. I think that was supposed to stay in Japan. It has nice fogs though.

Not that I feel safe in a crx but that thing just looks like it will fold easy if a bicycle hit it.
