I was at the Honda dealership this morning and saw this particular model and was wondering if the wheels on the new Civic Sport are in fact the same wheels as on the EP3 Civic TypeR?

Offset = ?
Weight = ?
Made by Enkei?

for those that are fortunate enough to own a 2007 Civic Sport, can you please shed some light for me, Thanks! :thumbsup:

The more I look at them the more I think they are exactly the same.
Even the same shade of grey colour.

I know the Euro Luxury/Sport models with the 17" wheels we got here looked like the EuroR wheels, but they were not EXACTLY the same. But these do look exactly the same tho.

You can, but expect to pay $550 per rim (that was the price for the Euro Sport 17" rims, without tyres).
