those are awsome. you have to go for the whole euro look. slammed super low and maybe a lip. just keep it clean and make it fast to keep up with your rims. super old school.

look at the other rims that will fit, isn't 4lugs 100mm any rim that size will fit ( the hub at least)

If your wanting oem honda rims the biggest one's you can get would be 99-00 civic SI rims. If your wanting 4x100mm 45mm offset alloys, the biggest that are rub free are 18". I've heard a story about 19's, but no one ever seems to show pics.

All usdm civic and teg alloys will fit. I'm not sure what year the lude switched to 4x114.3mm

Yep, $400 to $550 per rim. Nice looking and they don't weigh much, but you'd have to be into light weight forged rims a whole bunch to pay that kind of money. You can get forged 16" SSR rims for less btw, but I do like the look of the mugen's better.

damn it, they still havent sent me an e-mail. i guess they dont want business very much. i hope they do have those 14in mugens.

Go Mugen!!!! These RnR's spin for at the slightest mash of the pedal, they're so light....it's so cool. Those civic boys just stare at my wheels when I'm parked...you can see their expressions, like "What the f*ck, on this piece of shit!"...Whatever!!!!

ordering direct from Mugen means ordering direct from Honda.

HondaBoy

i really doubt it. look for some one who deals with importing JDM parts, and not some big name company that says they do. look for the legitamate little guys. a lot of people talk about being able to get JDM stuff but they are just that, all talk.

Yea, I saw those '88 Mugen Accord rims for sale on another website: http://www.wheelcollision.com/honda1.htm .

I was pretty skeptical though, since I didn't think that Mugen customized an '88 Accord.

I'd like to get my hands on those Mugen rims too, but I thought these would look good too:

I have a brochure that shows those mugen rims for the accord and those similar years preludes and civics as accessory.
Also some other mugen rims and other oem accessories. Can't remember exactly.

Here's a quick photoshop of them on my car. It looks kinda funny, it might look different in real life though.

I want MUGEN... it's the one time I could forego the look department and my current larger 15" rim size.

but then it says mugen on it... how can that not look good eh?

I also found some spoons I like even better. The pic is 5-lug but they come in 4 lug too in our offset.

For a while I was beginning to think the Rota Slipstreams were getting more popular than the authentic original Spoon wheels.

Have a little more respect for your own culture and the culture of other's. Please reframe from such remarks. I was going to edit your post and replace the "N" word with "DUDE", but since a member reported this post to all moderator's, I think it merits my comments.
