    honestly i could smooth it out some more, but i really didnt feel like it.. sanding is hard work as is, expecially by hand.. id perfect them if they were mine, but they not and i doubt i will get wat my time is worth for them...

    Ya Accord aint 5 lug fool, plus even if you did convert you lug pattern would be 5x114, these wheels are 5x100.. as far as Ive searched they fit VWs and Audis straight up anything else would need hub adapters..

    so is that just the top of a bolt on the face? looks like the same fasteners they use on my wheels, and i was curious if you had to do anything special to get them apart

    thanks everyone,

    probably are the same fasteners because they generally use the same 12point bolts on all 2-3 piece wheels.. i am yet to get the face out of those, from what SupraCoupe was telling me those GR-Cs are welded in the back but are a two piece wheel.. BBS 3 piece wheels i know come apart just by taking out the fasteners.. I am not sure about you wheel though, if they are a 2 or three piece wheel just taking out the fasteners on beating the wheel with a rubber hammer you should be about to separate them..
