FD2 Type R Rims

Where can i get these rims? Hopefully the picture comes out, if not they are the rims on the FD2. I love these and wish they game stock on my fiji blue SI, but alas I have the american stocks. I have been thinking about getting the championship white ones. Any help out there in the civic nation?

The only place I have seen them is JDMLand, but as said earlier they aren't cheap, about 1850, but I was wondering if there were other options for purchasing. Also thought about getting my stocks painted championship white (not sure where to get that done either lol) and putting red badge in the center.

Yes I know I am new to this. First new car and first SI.

I love those wheels ... go for it and paint them !! , stockies look good on white and with red H's ( there are some pictures in the forum ) I will paint mine to emulate them , just haven't got the time

^^^Felix... I doubt he would, plus shipping would be insane i would think from a private owner out of the country.

The HFP Rims painted in white look pretty close IMO. I think one of the mods did it...Nomar maybe..

Anyone know how much they weigh?

I'm thinking about some black Traklites, but if the FD2 rims are forged, I might consider the all honda route.

White HFP rims look better than CTR rims, imo.

Plus, you should get the gunmetal CTRs--the blue FD2s come with the darker ones in Japan.

HFPs would be a cheaper route, even painted, i suppose. How do they relate to the FD2s in terms of weight? Aki you think i should get them in gunmetal? I thought the championship white would have great contrast. I know I seem indecisive, but I see all the posts of people who get after market rims and I find all my favorite SI/Integras/RSXs/Preludes look better with some stock rims whether it be from another model or an earlier year (i want to make sure future readers know that is just my opinion and i disagree when people say ROTM have to have after market rims)
