the purpose of this thread is to post and discuss some of the 1st gen members favorite wheels. hopefully this thread could inspire and educate members of the expensive but tasteful wheels out there for us.

my Top 3 as of now:

Sprint Hart CP-R's (Real version of the Rota Track-R's)


Enkei RPF-1's. the only mass produced Enkei wheel i like. my favorite Enkei wheels are the rare and discontinued models. but i think RPF's would look sick on a CL.


Desmond Regamaster EVO Final Version's. Their made in Russia and by far my favorite wheel ever. These wheels are the real version of the ever popular Rota Slipstream wheel. (the white version. The Regamaster EVO wheels and the Spoon SW388 (Real version of the Black Slipstream) are the same exact wheel. Spoon never actually made the SW388. Desmond made them for Spoon.


These are the Non "Final Version" EVO wheels


lets try and keep this reasonable. no cheap stuff.

Rota's are fine because there cheap and still lightweight like the wheels there knocking off. i just dont think i can see myself supporting knock-off brands anymore.

i really can see myself getting the Enkei RPF-1's or a set of 4x114 Type-R's again.


Mugen wheels FTW. i wish i could afford them though.

aqua1stgen

This is impossible to limit to about 20 wheels, haha...guess I'll just grab a few.

Advan RGI's



Work Emotion XD-9's-cast and kind of heavy, but dear god are they sexy.



RC Starks: heavy, again, but either the black with purple or polished is unnnbelievable.



Mugen MF-10's, nuff said.


I'm gonna have to stop, so I'll end with still my favorite, Spoon sw388's...same as the regamaster evos, basically...i just looove the matte black and how plain they are.

i didnt know starks were heavy.

and mugen mf-10 are sick. so are M7's.

hOnU

i'm liking them mugen mf-10s!

aqua1stgen

Yah thinking they're around 20 lbs. for a 16". Not embarressing, but not exactly light.

Just about everything from Mugen is sexy, other than some of the new stuff, which I'm a little on the fence about.

my friends hatch on Mugen RnR's. rare as fuck!! whatttt


authentic EG6 SiR-II straight from japan. this car is unreal in person. theres some SW388's for you aqua.


another EG6 SiR-II on Desmond Regamaster EVO Final Version's



ugh my pictures always suck.

ZeroCL

that s2k with the hard top looks sickkkk.

aqua1stgen

Hahaha yah, it's on my desktop about 90% of the time. Ghost, you got some nice friends hahaha. I'd probably have sex with the SiR, just throwing that out there.

732xghost

iTrader: (1)

thanks man and right next to the EG6 is an AUTHENTIC Honda Ferio Si-R with a K-swap, but with ROTAS!!!!

those rays are sick. but i dont think they would look good in that color on a honda.

ZeroCL

yeah i know, i just thought they were too sick to NOT post. I saw a set in bronze i think, on a e92. they looked pretty good, mainly cause they have big ass rotors and the brakes actually look pretty substantial compared to ours. I wouldnt put a very open wheel like those rays on our car unless you have an aftermarket brake kit worth showing off.

732xghost

iTrader: (1)

good point.

aqua1stgen

Dear god, yah I can see the ferio rear seat...for some reason, this huge rota fan craze is hitting again, only now it's not the price its like a...pride in knock off wheels...I'm not gonna make this a knock off vs. real thread, but dear god, if you have the money get the better product and support the company that actually designed/tested it.

I have 2 sets of rims for my CL already, 1 set of 5 lugs that I'm not using, and the 18's I bought last year, but I'm leaning toward different rims, why what are you thinkin?

732xghost

iTrader: (1)

wrd.

i think u have Work Emotions. idk what particular model, but thats my guess right now.

ZeroCL

hahaaha he WISHES he has Work Emotions. looks like someone will be working some overtime!

oh p.s. chris, im getting some things done to my car over christmas break, ill be making a visit, maybe ill take some back to back pics with your car in the garage.

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

Sweet, come on down, I still want to buy your rims too Matt I do wish I had work emotions, but I def don't

Ryan as long as it's not nasty out, I'll pull the CL out

732xghost

iTrader: (1)

damn chris well get on that. we cant have nothing cheap on your car.

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

Yeah, but $1000 for rims on a car I hardly drive and can't drive to work anymore just doesn't make any sense

ZeroCL

for that show quality babyyyyy.

732xghost

iTrader: (1)

what would you guys think if i went 17x8 with some nice 205/40/R17 wheels. as some of you guys may recall ive said id never go above 16", but some advice really got me thinking. i think ive been into that "honda sunken ship" look for too long.

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

That's a good size setup, what wheels you have in mind?

732xghost

iTrader: (1)

see thats the thing. ive been so gung-ho on 16"s idk too many 17"s that i like that are in my price range. I might look into those Enkei RPF-1's i listed in the OP on that blue Si.

idk in reality im sure im just gonna end up with some 16" wheels.

ZeroCL

i think for our car, 17" wheels look awesome slammed. 16" i think are still too small for our car.
