Got them for a great price. I always wanted a set and now I have some, what car are they going on? My imaginary car with 4 wheels 2 seats and an intercooler, nothing else.

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

looks like HX rims off a 97+ HX.

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

I wish they were HX rims :-\ But I am happy with these 13" VX's, for now.

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

you need a lug conversion so you can slap them on the benz 8)

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

I have some. They are nice. Hard to find good tires for them.

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

nuthin' a block of metal and a drill can't fix 8)



Dibble- tires are gonna be the only bitch. They have some nice potenzas on there now, so it's currently okay. Maybe in the future I'll slap on some Sumitomo or falken 512 tires.

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

nice to see that you're already accumulating parts for a honda you don't have yet 8)....what are intending on picking up?

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

SO i guess i don't need to drive down now eh?!

what do HX rims look like?

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

Damn I love the VX rims! Paint that ---- white and the little "H"s red and you got mini 96 ITR rims. Spoonfed, if you go down towards the end of the page for like somehting like will vx or hx's fit on my ex you'll see some pics of the HX's by themselves or on Pats car. Pimp nevertheless. Good find 8)

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

Thanks^^

Murdizzle>> what did you pay for yours?? I got mine for $50(can) :-*

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

djfob- yeah I'm trying to gather stuff together that I could actually keep. Hopefully I will have another CRX or a 92-95 Civic hatch soon, I really want the EH hatch though, had a few CRX's maybe it's time for an EH :P


Spoon fed- I'm a greedy asian, I want your VX's too!
By the way here is a pic of the HX rims, it's a pic of the stock car which the rims came on stock. Pat (beerbongkicksass) has some better pics though of the rims and of them on his EJ.

stillnoturbo- I'm thinking about making them mini type r's, we'll see soon enough. I wanted to do them bronze too though, but I might just do the white. Depends on the car they are going on I guess.


Spoon fed- since I just noticed you posted again, there is no way i could beat the deal you got :'( So GIMME!

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

nice :D

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

you gotta get an EG hatch....the front bumper screams fmic.

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

Lookn' good. Nothing like puttn' bills aside for wheels to sit in a garage.

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

I really want one, but I'd have to come across one for REALLY cheap and I also need some money :-\

werd, creditors called me this morning too. Like I got money for bills pphhff, I need the money to buy more things to put in storage :P

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

My gf found a VX yesterday for $750 canadian. 273000 KMs
teal i think looks like a good body

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

NO Murdizzle! YOU WILL PAINT THEM WHITE!!! :D

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

WOW :o.
Thats $0.23 US dollars!


I say make your own adapter out of a square 1/2 piece of steel and slap tose things on the benz.

Re:Looky what I picked up today!

Re:Looky what I picked up today!

Re:Looky what I picked up today!

Got these puppies for free from my buddy BoostinLS. I put a set of Mickey Thompson 20.0x8x14's on them. Notice they don't hold air for more than a few days :P Also notice how the rubber compound between slicks and tires differs, these are so much more flexible etc. But aaah, don't notice the messy room. I've got the junkyard bug bad in here... Front ends of cars, engine parts etc... :o

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

Spoon fed- I hate you and your girl... I want that car dammit!!! Maybe you should find me a cheap car and deliver it to me ;)


Stillnoturbo- I am really considering white. And a nice little ricey red H, it shouldn't look too shabby. We'll see.


Trance- Nice wheels. I'm actually thinking about getting some Hoosiers for these rims, but I wanna find 2 more before I do, and it would be after I 'finish' the car. And your mess ain't got nuthin' on meh! 8)



Yeah if you call a bone stock CRX rice, it's all out rice.

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

Thats just one corner... in corner number two we've got unfinished ITB projects old turbo parts, B series manifolds, and all sorts of junk. Hey... now that I've got a digicam I can snap some pics and attempt to sell it all!!! Woo, keep an eye out for the tranceman's sale ;D

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

haha... at least you have it confined to corners, mine are just all over the place :P

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

Come on now, you gotta save a little path to walk through to get out :-X

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

pathway? you see my pics, to get in the garage I gotta pretend like i'm playing in a jungle gym and start climbing :-\

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

Haha ok, You win. I remember the pictures. Actually I just remember there being a hidden stash of money under some magazines and ---- :-X...hhmmm (searches aroind on floor for hidden pot of gold).

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

well when you find the cash you let me know and I'll send you my paypal adress :P <--- but I'm really serious.

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

Those rims look nice.. I think you made the right choice! :D

Re:Looky what I picked up today!
 

here is some ideas for ya. I tried to polish the lips of mine, but the oxidation was really bad. So I said to hell with it, and did a basecoat of bright silver, and then painted the inner parts a sort of gunmetal. The centers are going black over the winter.
Here they are after the silver

I can't wait to do them in black:) And slicks! Anyone know the price of some slicks to fit these? I come across these rims all the time for sub $200 canadian.
