Integra caps w/ronjon legends

I got me some 18" ronjon liquid silver legends(1080 + 80 ship) with 245/45ZR18 Toyo T1R's(680). New sensors(140), lugs(0) and locks(0)

Install tommorow at Dealer (103)

Me Questions:

Is nitrogen in the tires worth looking at?

Has anyone used old integra center caps with the ronjon wheels? I heard they would work, maybe?
What year?

How much ride quality can I expecct to loose?

My before shots:


plus me addons:


by me!





Sweet new look! (1823) "after" shots:

...coming soon

Nitrogen is OK, but not if you have to pay extra for it. It is not like you are landing an airplane or the space shuttle. You are only running at 32 psi, not 200. The fire danger is negligible. There is some advantage to dry nitrogen. Acura even says it is not worth it in one of the past service bulletins.

Cannot help you on the center caps.

Looking for some good pictures.

I was going to order same wheels and put the 20" Legend type 2 at the back.
You can put the original RL caps on Ron Jon, they fit perfectly.

First off, the stock '08 RL center caps will not fit the RonJon Legends. RJ's require a 2.25" cap where the stock ones are 2.75"


Initial impressions...Great quality wheel. Perfect condition on arrival. A little heavier than I thought they would be. It seems like most of the weight is on the outside "face side" of the wheel.

Paired with the Toyo's is a great match. None of the wheels required over a few ounces of weight and it rides smooth as glass. Tested it briefly up to 100mph. Ride a little stiffer, but not much. Feels better in turns...just feels like your'e stuck to the road a little tighter. I am very happy!

Still in search of them Integra caps. Some guy has some on flea-bay and he mentions that they are 2.25" dia. So I'm pretty sure they will fit.

PS...
  • Nitrogen installed free at Costco just for asking
  • Integra center caps will work
  • Ride quality still at least 95% as good and handling/feel must be 125%
