u'll have a really hard time finding genuine spoon rims, they are really rare and damn expensive......ur best bet is rota slip streams (they look like spoon rims) or rota subzeros (racing hart knock offs) or circuit 8's (believe they are mugen knock offs)

I think your best bet would be to keep searching local forums and honda-tech. But it could be tough to find some Spoons in 4x100.

Get some Rota Slipstreams..They are exactly like Alex's but just not the spoon name...I think there a bit heavier too. But not much.

Alright thanks guys. I found a site that has Spoon look-a-likes for $499 with tires. Just need to get rid of my Motegi's.

Very good choice of rims!
  Theres an actual pic of them. Like mentioned above, they would be very hard to find in a 4 by 100 pattern...since they were more intended for the jdm itr pattern which is 4 by 114 or the 5 bolts pattern. If u do get them, careful with the front wheel offset, mine was hittin the caliper by a bit, so i had to get wheel spacers (8mm), so then i had to get extended wheel studs (ARP). so i had to do some other mods before i could put the front rims on, either than that, the weight difference is very noticeable, especially on the highway, compared to my 17" from before. im still in contact with the guy that i got the rims off of...ill talk to him and see if he can get more sets of those. |
