Bigmaine36 · 06-17-2007, 04:03 PM

Hey guys whats up new to the forums just wondering, haven't seen any 07 TL Type S wheels. I think that would look pretty pimp.

06RREX · 06-17-2007, 04:56 PM

^^ Hey man! Welcome to the 8th! I see you're from Akron... If intrested we have an 8thcivic meet set up July 14 in Columbus if you wanna go! Check out the forum in the Mid-West section of the forums.

Tim: Nice forum idea man. I really like all of your OEM wheels EXCEPT the RDX ones. They look TERRIBLE IMHO

. But I REALLY like the Type-R wheels on your Si! Nice!

Here is my RR EX with 03-05 Civic Si EP3-R5 HFP 17" wheels. They look great!

More pics of my ride!
Updated pics of my ride

A wash and some nice pics of one sexy civic

Let me know what you think!

I like those they like good in the dark grey/gunmetal color

06RREX · 06-17-2007, 08:37 PM

Yeah they look really good on the 8thgens... I have seen pics of them on a Habi and a Taffy somewhere on this site... The taffy was sonick20z's I think. But im not positive.

Kid Red · 06-24-2007, 09:01 AM

Hey guys, I'm new and was wondering about upgrading the wheels. Do any of the Accord or Acura wheels fit fine on a EX sedan? Or would I need spacers or shaving down the calipers or anything? And would the lugs be my OEM or do I need to get ones for the specific wheels I want? And the cap covers, where do you get those?

I like the Alloy look, and like these from this thread-
05 Type S
05 TSX
04 Type S
06 RSX-S
17" 03-05 6speed V6 accord rims

If I found those, would it be plug and play so to speak, or is there more configuration needed?

cglane2 · 06-26-2007, 12:12 AM

Here are my new rims.

2007 TL Type-S 17x8

***GORDATA*** · 06-26-2007, 08:09 AM

Could Somebody please give me part number for 03-05 Civic Si EP3-R5 HFP 17" wheels. I want to order a set but I dont want to order accord ones. This is the part number I have 08W17-SDB-101E.

06RREX · 06-26-2007, 12:01 PM

^^ PM sent

***GORDATA*** · 06-26-2007, 01:24 PM

thank for the part number, I already ordered a set so I should see it in a few days.

06RREX · 06-26-2007, 04:26 PM

No problem man- hope you like them

Kid Red · 06-26-2007, 08:49 PM

Someone said most Acura wheels will it my EX sedan without mod or spacers. 2 questions:

1) Where do I get a Honda cap, and do they fit all recent Acura wheels?
2) Will my EX lugs work or do I need Acura lugs?

I'm following a few auctions on eBay, I like the TSX wheels, but I don't want to be surprised if I got them and they didn't fit with my lugs, etc.

06RREX · 06-27-2007, 02:12 PM

im not positive about either of those questions, but i would think both should be yes. I think most caps are the same- you could probably find them online or order them from a honda dealer. And i think the lugs should work; but im not sure.

Kid Red · 06-27-2007, 09:13 PM

hehe, so you aren't sure but leaning towards yes? I'd hate to drop $400 on ebay then to get $500 in tires, then pay to have then mounted to find they don't fit with my lugs, haha. I know the SI rims need SI lugs, so that's why I ask about Acura wheels.

Plus, I'd have to have the Honda cap or it'd look silly.

06RREX · 06-27-2007, 09:44 PM

^^ haha i really dont have a clue. but if i were to bet money on it, i would say yes. but that is probably wrong.

Kid Red · 06-27-2007, 10:02 PM

You'd bet, but you'd be wrong? haha, not really instilling confidence in me, lol.

07oemsi · 06-28-2007, 12:33 AM

awsome! I LOVE ALL THoSE OEM WHEELS, for me aftermarket wheels are no good. "friends don't let friends roll with Rottas"

ctboy31 · 06-28-2007, 12:50 AM

if you guys need some center caps, try to e-mail beavnyc@verizon.net. his name is Vadim Rabinovich. i bought 2 sets from him already. he'll custom made one for you. tell him i told you guys to e-mail him. he basically buys oem center caps and he did magic to it...lol. i have the accord type r with embossed H and he put red decal on it. one set went on my EF9 with gt3 rims and one going on to my 07 civic si TW sedan. goodluck.
