Discuss your thoughts.

BTW the rims are staggered. so we put the 8.5in rims in the front and the 8in rims in the rear. With that setup it actually was hella flush. LOL!

[lanning]

doesnt look too bad IMO

[white_rice]

^^x2 lol what the hell i might get some rsx rims:ninja:

[MidLifeCrisis]

id rock those.. and thats not a 2004 honda civic.. not even an 05.

[-EnVus-]

nothing wrong with it you use what ever you can and looks good. Now using center caps on it is another thing you can say honda and role with nissan lol

[Jonathan12uiz]

[Black4DrEK]

have you seen the no name home depot plugs you can use as center caps? If he did these wheels he can get caps that are just blank.

yeah i been hearing a lot about them lately

[JITB]

those wheels would look nice on a Rsx

[DoriDori]

I'm not a fan of swapping around wheels on same make or different makes. So yeah, Not so much.

[-EnVus-]

those wheels would look nice on a Rsx
to much wheels for rsx imo

[roscoe]

damn looks pretty good lol

[topsecret2JZ]

i think it looks really good man, you should drop it though, but yeah man keep them, if you do it would be the first civic i have seen with those so reps to you man

[JITB]

to much wheels for rsx imo

rsx comes with a 17, and the type R civic/rsx comes with 18...

[-EnVus-]

Are they as wide also ?

[Honda_91EF]

It looks great.

[BITCHING]

looks good

[EL42]

looks great,besides the VW's been doing stuff like this forever. most people don't want to accept that aftermarket wheel designs come from somewhere.( i got old skool audi wheels in front and team dynamics in back,both look similar.)

[JITB]

Are they as wide also ?

doubt it..not sure tho..

[-EnVus-]

doubt it..not sure tho..
i ask cause how it would play in when you wanna lower the car

[Nerdsrock22]

Looks great.

I've been wanting to see this for awhile.

Is the hub bore the same?

hmm... we didnt pay attention to the hub bore. if anything the nissan rim would have a larger one, because there were no issues fitting them on. we were just playing around with my track rims for my 240.

but even if he kept them on there i'm pretty sure that we could find a hub adaptor ring that would work, but like i said we didnt pay attention to that.

[HachiDori]

iphone photography? lol

[singhondeck]

looks good..id do it

[cpearson]

not too bad

[boosted b]

looks damn good but needs to be lowered

[Elbow]

I had Miata wheels on my CRX. Better then any Honda wheel ever made IMO.

[roscoe]

^^pics or it didnt happen!!!!



lol jk

[ItsBlack]

keep em, they look good to me

[Z33_kid]

lol

[SampaGuy]

as long as they are round and made out of metal why not right?

[G.C]

doesn't look too bad. Just drop that thing. Looks like it can climb mt.fuji

[blue_lude_91]

those wheels are wayyyy huge for a civic IMO
(i hate those wheels imo too lol)

[amandDA]

looks pretty good imo

[OTG Signs]

Those would look good on the Element...

[1SICKLEX]

Just cause it looks good doesn't mean to do it. Those are RWD wheels on a FWD car, your rear will likely scrub with anyone in the back or a full trunk.

Also OEM wheels on one brand to another brand is a BIG No no for me.

However its your money, your car, do as you wish, post pics on the internet and take what you get.

Why? He put the wider wheels in the front.

[auxiliary]

MR2 Guys put 240 wheels and 300zx wheels on their cars all the time. Not to mention lots of people put cobra replicas on their cars.

[marcos713]

looks good IMO, a drop might help them out

[ATL_e92]

looks good, you should paint them black!

yes they are rwd designed wheels, but we put the wider rims in the front... think of it like some fat ass tires on the front for traction at the strip. same concept. Scrubing is highly unlikely with stock suspension unless my friend decides to haul fat chicks and drop spare motors in the trunk. Its a civic coupe... how much are you gonna pile in the thing anyway.

this was just for fun anyway.

[Jonathan12uiz]

after all the good comments, he wants to buy the rims off me... we already painted his current rims bronze and we will prolly do the same if by chance he actually is going to buy them.

[Nittanys1]

Changaroo had those rims on his accord MONTHS ago...

So you are taking pics only and not going to drive with it right? Funny there is a great article in EVO this month (has the orange Lambo on the cover) and in the rear they talk about going staggered up front on a FWD car and WHY ITS ASININE. It only will compound problems with a FWD setup. It reiterated what I knew.

If its for pics only fine, thanks for sharing. :)

[Black Mamba]

shit looks PS'ed.

[Nittanys1]

^kinda, but there RX8 rims. I made that mistake once thinking they were 350Z rims...well now twice...

[bloodline]

doesnt look as bad as i thought...good thing he wasnt rocking the nissan centercaps...then id probably have something to say lol

[HeLLo iM iZzY]

rsx comes with a 17, and the type R civic/rsx comes with 18...Nope 02-04 RSX base n S's come with 16's,optionals are 17's. 05-06 RSX base came with 16's n S's came with 17's both stock and optional. Type R's came with 17's as well.

I havent seen these home depot things. can u show me?

[slimm]

i know im prolly super late seeing this, but the civic looks nice w/ the z rims on it.

[Greddypacked]

NOPE do not like little cars w/ big rims and not lowered... it just dont go 2gether. Plus say bye bye to your good gas mileage.

[JDM-KID]

it does NOT look bad. i like

[HypnoToad]

i want some GSR blades for my 240,lol
