    Test fit my wheels...





    lulz. I love it.



    I need some small hubcentric spacers, maybe push them out 5mm to make them ET17. They are a tad bigger hub.

    They barely clear the front calipers, haven't test fitted the rears yet. Oh and you can see that I pulled the fenders a bit all around.

      225/50/15, the correct size, or Jay will have my ass.

      I don't think I can really "stretch" these out so much, they're still 15x7's. Going to have them straightened and curb rash fixed up...maybe have them do a mirror polish on the lips...

          Agreed. Did you ever find out the make/model?

                    Thanks for all the nice comments ya'll.

                    As far as what they are:

                    I think they were made in '88 since there is a marking back there. They are stamped as CSi wheels, and the original caps used to say CSi (I saw only one other pair in my search, made for a Volvo).

                    They were originally gold centers and were painted black by the last owner, close match to Diamantschwarz. Weds Sport also made a similar wheel, so I am thinking that they are old Weds. The centerbore is different, so maybe they were old Honda wheels, and the lips seem to be an aftermarket one, but they are still 15x7.

                    Thats all I got. Now where is that site with all the hubcentric spacers...I can't recall it off the top of my head.

                        I thought you were in Jersey? Thats kinda far. I think they are a two piece wheel, not 3 piece. Its odd, I dunno what to make of these.

                          Don't space them anymore than 3mm. 5mm and you will most likely get some vibrations. 3mm can even use stock bolts.

                          Which 225's are you settling on again? Also, when are you shipping the wheels out to me?
