    Talking Wheels Im Gonna Buy

    as some of us here are crazy over honda stuff, i am. after checking on my car at the body shop, i stopped by the junkyard 2day. i though i would see if they had any new hondas. they guy had just gotten a CRX. its wrecked in the front so its not worth fixin up. i think its an HF. neway it has some pretty cool wheels that are lighter than my alloys from an LX-I. they are also aluminium alloys. they are near perfect for 16 or 17 year old rims. maybe newer like late 80s but are cool. they are only 13s, but that isnt a problem for me. i like them small and light weight. they came on something like the 83 accords and 88-89 civics. all they need is to be washed and put some shine on the tires. they are full tread. this guy only wants $75 for all 4!!! this guy is the man! i got the LX-I rims with good tires from him for $50 last time. so i think i will get them sometime this week. if i do get em, ill just clean em up and have em ready to put on my 3gee at the end of the week when the body shop finishes up. i think i will get em. in where its says model, copy this COW-63647, paste and select alloy wheels.this pic is on a site that sells them new or refinished for $75 each, which is what im gonna pay for the set of 4.

    kinda like a '98 Civic HX wheel, only those are 14's instead of ur 13's. Good find, I think they'll look pretty cool on the 3G. Take pics and post 'em asap.

    Sweet find dude. I bought my 85 Prelude Si rims for $50 and they had one good tire I just bead blasted them and had them painted and now I just need to save up for some Yokohama's. I found some pirellis for 13" rims. (like the song 50cent) Daddy needs Pirelli's to look mean on 13's

    Oh well I found some Avid T4 Yokohama's for 185/70 TR13 (can't remember if it was TR though) I'm paying $180.44 shipped 2 day express for all four yoko's.

    i think these wheels have Bridgestone T/A tires. im thinkin thats what it said on the side. neway, they have nice tires with full tread. if they cant take em off tomorrow, i might just take em off myself. only problem is that the cars sit on dirt or grass. well i tell yall how it goes.
