02-11-2010, 11:26 PM
well, he responded to my email today and said that someone offered 250.
but since i really want rims soo bad, and the fact that they are pretty cheap, i told him id give him 300 and come pick them up! i gave my number and he called and said 'lets meet up tomorrow!'
so

Dave for around 350 you can find some used rotas on your local classifieds or local honda forums. I guarantee youll find some brand name wheels at that price. They sell for 300-400 all day long here in phoenix

itzdave
02-12-2010, 06:45 PM
eh, already picked the wheels up today before work. they look great, but the paint on them is horribly masked off, and its got a lot of runs and whatnot. so they will be powdercoated...
now the question is, WHAT COLOR!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
i think white would look hella clean.
but i am kinda diggin the red.

paint the rims black to match the plastic trim if yours is black

trust me dave black would look nice or white too

2ndGenGuy
02-12-2010, 10:19 PM
I'm all for bronze / gold myself. I think that would go great with the white and black. But that's just me.

itzdave
02-12-2010, 10:25 PM
lol, thanks for throwin my pic up Charlie.

so, i dunno much about the wheels...
on the inside it says the 'JWL' stamp (japanese version of DOT) on one spoke, 15inch on another spoke, then 'STARFORM' 'made in japan' on another spoke.
i did some googling to find starform wheels and didnt see anything like mine, so i dunno what they are......?

Rendon LX-i
02-12-2010, 10:37 PM
ill have to agree with john. Bronze forsure. Red is good but bronze is better dave. Goes with the white well. Either way good deal. Honesty i think you payed way to much you could of gottan a set of SI,Gsr,Ls mesh,rotas for that price but a fuck it right. You got rims yo. Cant wait to see em on.

itzdave
02-12-2010, 10:45 PM
well, all over craigslist and other places online, i couldnt find anything much cheaper...

Rendon LX-i
02-12-2010, 11:02 PM
shit happens. mostly likey when your NOT looking for something its there and cheaper but when you LOOKING for something its not there and expensive LOL. im i right? LOL but those rims looke great bro i would diff. rock them. no doubt. go with a bronze or even a light gunmetal. OR BLACK just enought but yet your trim is black so everything will pop. Meaning look even and legit.

02-13-2010, 11:11 AM
Why does it look like the tires have absolutely no tread?

2ndGenGuy
02-13-2010, 12:17 PM
Dave, dude where are the pics of them on your car! Sounds like you have some legit JDM wheels man!

dacantu
02-13-2010, 10:36 PM
go with gold!

itzdave
02-14-2010, 02:43 AM
lol, well... they are JDM but they are in my back seat waiting to be finished getting stripped tomorrow. its taking forever cuz i don't have a blaster.
but ive decided that the wheels will be solid white. i will hopefully have them painted by tomorrow night...

mykwikcoupe
02-14-2010, 06:44 AM
Are you going with the same white as the car? Flat white? Plaint bright white like a bombcan??

02-14-2010, 12:51 PM
Any color but black,I don't understand people painting there wheels black.They just blend in with the tires,which defeats going with other wheels.Mite as well just leave the steel wheel on the car.Just my opinion,i mean it's your car dude.

itzdave
02-15-2010, 01:06 AM
rims are bein painted WHITE as i type this!
time for another coat...

itzdave
02-17-2010, 07:31 PM
lol, after i got the wheels looking supre nice, i baked the wheels and dammit the clear coat 'yellowed'
so now my rims are beige... til friday when i can resand, repaint, and rebake (without clear coat) lol.

dacantu
02-17-2010, 08:52 PM
fuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that sucks big balls man! I would hate to invest so much time on some wheels and for them to yellow. Maybe you should add the clear after you bake them this time? or as you said just no clear?

mykwikcoupe
02-17-2010, 08:55 PM
Dave that sucks. how about some pics?

itzdave
02-17-2010, 08:57 PM

LX-i
02-18-2010, 12:07 AM
damn man i was just giving my opinion, chill the hell out. nice wheels btw dave. i think they looked cool red, maybe a nice clean and a fresh coat of red, or gold black or whatever your into.

and to be fair decantu, i dont recall starting a thread to ask you what you thought of my posts. thanks.

itzdave
02-18-2010, 12:10 AM

02-19-2010, 12:38 PM
^^ I'm gonna say no, because the white ones dave has, the spokes indent in where it meets up at the edge of the rim. Those ones are flush and flare outwards.

charliekuney
02-19-2010, 12:48 PM
^ I'm going to say it's still possible. John is looking at a different picture or something, because both rims get skinny towards the outer end of the spokes and flare in towards the inside of the wheel.

itzdave
02-21-2010, 06:25 AM
hey thanks guys!!! i love how the rims look, they are soo perfect with the car!
however, i think they have an extreme offset or something cuz i was rubbing very bad in the back. so i had to take a hammer and prybar and start rolling out my rear fenders...
rolled 'em out a bit and drove all the way to seattle withour rubbing at all!

cant wait to finish rolling the fenders out throw the 'soon-to-be-mine coilovers' that i got coming to me as soon as i get my tax returns back!!!

more pix to come, if mike and charlie are cool with it that is........

itzdave
02-21-2010, 06:31 AM
Hmmm... this is all I can find on them.

http://www.sportmag100.com/wboard/a.php?id=2861

yea dude, i found a few 'star form' wheels for sale but they were all in crazy languages too...




and no, they are not the wheels that are on the civic.
and thanks again for all the comments!!!:rockon:
