anyone else with tsx wheels? do you have spacers? need to know.... so far I think you do!!

06RREX · 07-16-2007, 09:06 AM

I saw an 05 Civic EX (2 dr) yesterday and it had the full HFP kit- lip, sus, emblems, wheels, etc. Has anyone put the HFP wheels from those civics on their 8thgen?

Edit: NOT the 05 Si HFP wheels- I have those hehe

Can't do that. Those are 4 lug wheels.

I'm sure everyone here likes them too. Welcome.

06RREX · 07-19-2007, 09:09 AM

Those wheels would be HOT!

aznTrance · 07-19-2007, 12:33 PM

unfortunately for us, jdmland.com is selling them for about $1800 USD for the set

i heard those rims have an offset of 60, thus requiring spacers?

(i believe it was in the thread pertaining to these wheels specifically)

1chin3s3_b0i · 07-19-2007, 03:38 PM

yeah those wheels would look super hot..but the price of them are outrageous!

Spinitch · 07-21-2007, 05:44 PM

TSX wheels painted graphite

DUB2CRS · 07-21-2007, 05:53 PM

^ The 2nd shot makes me think of a Volvo S40.

06RREX · 07-21-2007, 05:59 PM

I like them- Graphite goes well w/ RR.

Heres mine-

IMO dark grey looks great with RR.

CANMAN · 07-21-2007, 06:26 PM

^^^^ The TSX wheels with that finish are the sex

Just be careful man, it doesn't look like you are lowered but without spacers ON A LOWERED CAR the TSX wheels will rub on the front lowering spring or perch depending on what setup you are running. I found out the hard way the other day with my TSX wheels, the perch of my TEIN SS in the front dug a huge ring into the sidewall of my front tires. When I put them on at first there was not noise or anything and it looked like everything cleared but slide you head under the front bumper, in front of the wheel and look at the distance between the spring and the top of the wheel. Just check it out because I played mine off and got screwed.

those gunmetal finished tsx wheels look hot!

**Tim** · 07-21-2007, 10:10 PM

They just need the HFP center caps to finish them off.
