Wanted to know which type of wheels these are.

I was looking through my Civic pictures and stumbled across these wheels. What is the brand and style name? Also where can I purchase them. Thanks.

The McHeavy FU2's weigh 18.9lbs for 18" x 7.5". Sure that's about 2-3 lbs more than Works or Rays, but since most folks aren't willing to spend $600 per wheel for racing wheels, they work beautifully. For the time being, they aren't the same 5 or 6 spoke look that everyone else has.

Do you think these wheels will match a Habi red Si? I know black matches the color but would this type of black match well with a Habi red Si? Should I get it powdered coated if I do purchase these wheels? And I'm thinking of buying the 18" wheels but which width is recommended?

If you're going to powdercoat them then don't get these wheels. The hyperblack finish is amazing on its own.

That's what I wanted to do from the beginning. Keep them stock. However, do you think it will look good on a Habi red Si? I love how these wheels look. They are a bit expensive though.
