Need help with these wheels on Euros.

Hi all,

I've been checking out some wheels for my new Black 06 Accord Euro and have found the following pictures which I really like.

I think I've decided that the mesh style wheels are what I will go for.

Can anyone help by identifying the make/model of the following wheels?

I think all of these look like they're 19" with expensive rubber (obviously). Can anyone help with the wheel model/makes shown above at all?


Thanks in advance,
Ben

im not sure on those rims, but maybe ask in the trader forum ?

lots of people there know about rims :)

that style is very common - lots of manufacturers make them - see cheetah below. Speedywheels are available at most tyre shops in Australia and are not expensive. They have a good warranty so worth looking at.

The photos actually look like BBS and the top one may be Work -- which are expensive but excellent wheels.

There are lots of options out there -- it just depends on how much you want to spend.

Whats the price range you would expect from those wheels?
$300 each maybe?

looks like the 2 pc. racinghart wheels

Those rims have BBS's traditional designs which are extensively used by BMW in late 80s and early 90s, and formula 1 as well. BBS make very high quality (also expansive) rims. Some of their 17 or 18" forged rims only weigh 6kg or something like that.

However, as yfin suggested, there are plenty of rim makers now a day produce something with similar design and off course with much more wallet friendly price tag.

The top ones look a very similar style to the NEW Euro Sport, which happens to be the same as the ones fitted to the JDM Accord Type-R 2.0L i-Vtec.

Bigger is not always better. 18"s will be on the limit if you retain the standard suspension.

Wait a month or two, the Sport wheels will become available.

I thought the new EURO Sport LE had similar wheels to the 2005 Euro Luxury?

Of the three I do like the first one best - very similar to the ones I had on my Integra.

The new EURO SPORT wheels aren't the same as the first one here. The spokes in that one join the middle of the wheel which I think makes the car look more muscular. The Euro Sport wheels are out to the rims.

How much would the factory Euro Sport wheels be each anyhow?

euro sport rims is about $750 per rim.
very $$$$$$$$$ if u buy new from honda

Ive got these on mine http://www.tempetyres.com.au/product...t=&part_no=415

Cheers Rick

nice wheels rick.. why not do a thread with some nice pics of your when you get the chance :thumbsup:

im 100% sure that the second pic are Maya wheels from USA
what size are you after?
btw anyone know how much are tyres for 19" :p

Hi Rick,

Very nice!

I like the spokes meeting the wheel in the middle of the rims rather than at the edge I guess. But that's an excellent price for those and look great too.

I kind of like the 5zigen new Sports Engine wheels too - and notice how they're inset spokes...

Tyres are more important than wheels: if you can't afford the tyres, don't upgrade the wheels...

agreed

the hankook ventus is between $250-350 depends on the type of the tyre yeah but the average price around that much for 19". This brand is not so bad about average performance and also you might try to find more about Kumho trye, I heard is quite good worth with the money but I don't know how much is it around.
