i'm also open to other suggestions. this is my winter car, so i want to keep the steelies but need some new hubcaps.

thanks

Damn, dude, were you reading my mind or something? I'm thinking about getting those like the ones from the second picture for my car since I don't want rims. My car's dark blue too.

ide say first pic looks better with dark car.. although they kinda look the same

im 99.9% sure that those hubcaps will not fit on your car we have 13's stock and the newer civics are bigger, unless you intend on buying the civic wheels too...

uhg, hubcaps... so ugly... they're immatation wheels!

if anything roll on steelies, give em a quick black spray job and your set....

yeah man those look like 15"s, your stock wheel size is 13"

my car has 14" wheels
and i know the ones in the first pic are 14" and i'm pretty sure the new civic ones are 14"

get rims!

i say go for the first one, the link on top. more simple, simple is good.

88-89 3G Accords are 14's. The first picture's got 14's and the second one's got 15's.

my sis has the 01 civic and hers are 15" rims... Thet may even be 16's... but for sure they are definitly not 14". IMO you should roll on steelies if anything. Hubcaps look really bad... Why dont you just throw on a set of cheap pepboy rims for now... ? Get some cheap "winter tires" and you will be better off traction wise and looks wise....

check out these tires....

yea well i got screwed with stock 13"s...

anybody got pics of 3geez on steelies?
my guess is that they only look good if the car is lowered, which i'm still working on.

i thought only the lx-i/ex-i/se-i had 14s? the DX and LX for all the years only had 13s

For those of us with no money, hubcaps are the only alternative. Don't make fun of that. It is very arrogant and immature.

Rolling on steels painted black looks really ugly on our cars... it's ok on the newer Civics but not on our Accords. I personally wouldn't suggest it. My opinion, keep the stock hubcaps or get imitation Honda hubcaps that will fit your car. Anything else really doesn't look that good. For instance, the hubcaps you purchase at Wal Mart not only look rice and stupid, they also tend to fly off easily and/or crack when you hit the curb because they stick out. There are several websites out there that sell hubcaps that LOOK like Honda OEM but aren't, and those hubcaps will fit on ours. Hope this helps.

yea, most LX and DX came with n13"s, lx-i and above were 14, usually real wheels not steelies like i have

go to JC whitney.com and get some bling bling caps

go to walmart

what are steelies?

don't buy fancy hubs.......its like trying to pick up chicks when your wearing a dress.....it just doesn't work. Roll on steelies or the stock (or as close to stock) hubbies.......

steelies are the black shit under your hubcaps when you take them off

They are ugly as hell too.

they work

Hubcaps work too. Oh, and guess what, you know their purpose? To cover up the ugly black shit under them! :D

Not all 88-89 3geez came with 14's like someone said before. If they did than I'm a winner! mine has 13's. I say take the hubcaps off and have a true wite trash look!!!like me!

My moms are 13 too. Her's is an LX just like yours Ryan.

And an 88.

mines pure white trash, most LX and DX were 13

All LX and DX were 13 rolling out of the dealer. LX-i and SE-i had 14's and many options I believe.

I've got an LX-i rollin on 14's. removed my hubs and sanded and repainted the bad boys. well, all except for the front right, I can't get one of the bolts loose. I didn't do black or white, just a clean silver. i even sanded the black off of the H and that's silver as well. Kind of a ghost H thing going on with it now. I like them, just when you put them back on use an air gun. I don't have one, I used my 4-way iron to tighten, but they keep trying to work loose. Anybody have a suggestion on what I should do about that problem, besides buying an air gun? I like how they look now, nice and shiny(er). Looks good and it only took me a weekend, because I started late on them.

Pics? I am curious as to what they look like!

no cam. i had one that i recieved for x-mas a couple years ago, but it don't work. it also looks like a fisher price toy. seriously, bulky see through purple plastic and crappy resolution. took one of myself from 5ft. away and you couldn't make out facial features.
that's how crappy it was. no money for a new one. it sucks.

Take a picture with a regular camera and send it to me snail mail! I'll scan it in for ya and get it posted
