Anyone with CL Type-s Rims on their Civic Coupe?

I accidently wrote TL Type-S not CL Type-S on my old thread so lemme start over......

Anyone got pics of their Civic Coupes with CL Type-S rims?

I just realized my mistake in that other thread. I wasn't even giving you what you asked anyhow. I'm sorry. I posted TL rims- not even TL-S.

As for the CL Type S rims, I haven't seen them on the new Civics, but they're nearly identical to the Accord EX V6 Coupe wheels that are available now on 2006 models and the TL Type S rims 2002-2003. The only difference is that the CL rims were half an inch wider.

I know that doesn't help any further, but I just wanted to apologize for my posts.

I was wondering what the hell a TL Type S was.

I had them on my RSX Type S. They are very heavy and I have no idea if they weigh more than the stock Si wheels but I bet they do. On the Type S, they improved the look of the car but I could easily tell there was more weight at the wheels while driving. I could feel the suspension compressing all the time whereas with the stock wheels rarely.

You guys wanting to upgrade rims, go aftermarket and make sure they are lighter than the stock wheels. You don't want to spend all that $ and get wheels that weigh heavier than your stock wheels.

cheers.

Which year CL? The last year with the 6sp had different wheels than the Auto's...I'm guessing you meant the 6sp wheels?
