      I'm definitely going to pick up a set of the black ones after x mas this year, I'll probably end up polishing the lips though.


      I just picked this up too:



      Not this particular auction though.

      Had to change a flat this last weekend and almost left the car on the side of the road in frustration. I miss my Honda sometimes.

          You can specify no center bore holes and have it machined instead, they will then be hub centric, but it might be more costly than just switching to studs.

          They are the new sportmaxx, i can see it now.

            nah, too expensive to be the new Sportmaxx... I love widened steelies, but the thought of paying hundreds of dollars to rock steel wheels just bugs me.

              16X8"s would be $450 shipped. Pretty comaparable to sportmaxxs.

                ??? From where?? BHR Steelies are $750 + shipping, Stockon Wheel are very simular, but you can send a set of wheels and they will do it for you for like $450+ shipping both ways.

                    www.vorshlag.com sells a set, and there are other companies who sell Vorshlag's set. I put some 80mm on this past weekend and was thrilled with how well everything went together. Superfast shipping, too.

                      ok...so let's get this straight.

                      The corrado steelies will work but only with a stud kit.
                      The 318's will also work without the need of a stud kit.

                      Is that the right idea?

                      Stock 318's are 14x6/6.5?
                      Corrado is 16x6/6.5?

                            Tire rack sells steelies for winter wheels, i got mine for 39 dollars a piece. Then you can have any reputable wheel place stretch them for you. I know a guy that got some stretched, i'll give him a call tomorrow and find out where.
