Hi guys, first post :)

Can anyone help me with finding factory alloys for Honda. What I'm after are a set of alloys that I know came factory or as an option, just can't find them.

I've seen a Silver EK in Brisbane that has them, the car looked quite classy, not over the top, just some alloys, suspension drop, colour code (may have had a sunroof to), I think it was a VTi.

Anyways here is what I'm looking for:

They were similar to these

But had more of a machined face like these:

Actually, looked very much like these (hehe, wheels are on wrong :p ):

More info on why I'm looking. I'm looking for a change, I have alloys on the car now, don't want to go large diameter and I'd prefer the rim be a Honda original. I'm looking for a rim very similar to that on the Prelude (not a silver painted one), going on a Black 2000 EK and will drop the ride hide a little just for looks. My car:

Damn I love black, but not liking waxing it every two weeks :(

Also, I'm after body parts, grille to replace the big "H" version, front lip, rear lip and possibly some subtle side skirts, oh and clear side repeater.

Thanks for taking the time to read this, hope you guys can help, anyone who can locate the above I'd love to talk :thumbsup: :honda:

So yeah, cheers.... Pics, Links, all appreciated....

[edit]

Just found them in the market place, sold, bugger. But these are what I'm after, hehe, any info on what they are called, sizes, does Honda still make them etc etc.

seen as there are lots of different wheels on theis thread i am slightly confused, but from what i gather from your info, I think you are after the EK VTiR wheels.

yea there all different typres of vtir's so make up your mind which wheels you want... but as your car has four stud patern you wont be able to get prelude wheels so i think you are after ek civic hatch vtir wheels

I simply put the Prelude rims up as reference (the machined finish, not the painted silver).

Yeh they are very hard to come by I have 4 sets of different Vtir 15inch alloys and those are my favorite but the ones I have are the ones you posted so they are all damaged. You can have them for a decent price but they will all need repairing and that will cost alot. PM if interested.

So earlier Integra's were 4 stud?

Firstly, you cannot get the Prelude ones as they are 5 stud. Nor can you get the EK9 ones, I think you mentioned. If I were you i'd get the DC2 VTi-R ones, "fat fives" which I have on my EK, or the later DC3 "Blade" type or the EM1 stockies. IMO the EK4 ones are rubbish. They are the best IMO for 4 stud Hondas. And I would sell the rims you got on your car ASAP. Gimme your email and I'll take some pics of my EK and send em to you.
