16" RSX rims on my LX Sedan
Hadn't installed the center caps yet.
Michelin Pilot Exalto All season tires.

My tire/wheel set up weighs ~39 lbs each. The stock set up weighs 43 lbs.

I used my stock LX lugs and i think they stick out too much. Are the EX and Si's lugs shorter than the LX lugs?

I will get better pics later

I originally wanted the 17" but they were too much money. Now, i kinda like the 16" better. Maybe i'm just biased now lol

Damn... i thought i was the only sedan with 16" rsx rims. Besides the guy with the orange rims.

Are those the candian version? They are graphite color?

Funny.. I bought 4 from craigslist for $100. I fuxed one up trying to repair the rash. So i bought another from a junk yard for $50 and repaird it after i bettered my skill. So i repaired the original fuxed one correctly and i just sold it yesterday for $75 on craigslist.

Did you use duplicolor's clear coat wheel paint on top of the color?
