A few newbie questions...

JhnGfn · 04-14-2008, 02:38 PM

I'm looking at HandA and see they have two different versions of some of their wheels: One made for 2006 and 2007 and one made for 2008. What's the difference between the two and why is the latter so much more expensive than the former?

Also, what model/year is the '16" 7-Spoke Alloy Wheel' from? I thought the LX and EX came with a 5-spoke alloy wheel.

For your first question:
The 2008 model wheels come with tire pressure monitoring system sensors (TPMS) because the 08+ civics have a tire pressure monitoring system.

If you have an 07-, then no need to worry about TPMS.

(for the second question, someone else will have to answer that, I don't know much about the LX/EX model wheels)
