rota's are replica wheels, that goes for lenso's too so i'd say get rid!
there are genuine wheels out there at affordable prices, just a case of fidning them. always posting up good finds on here so keep a look out dude

Really like the car

Deffo listen to dave the car would be so much more with some real rims. You've gone to far to blow it now lol.

Sell those other sets and you'll find some decent rims, splits don't have to be BBS's Wink

Lots of german companys, thing is luckily the Civic is the exact same PCD as your mk1 mk2 Golfs etc so dished an split rims are plentiful.

Do some research, look on wheel whores and just at stance sites or this is a good thread from an american honda forum, lots of diff wheels an fitments and most tell you what the wheel is and exact fitmant info. Great ideas here.

There are over 700 pages so it will take time to go through but some awesome cars here

There is a Copomotive wheel (the CXN) that is identical to that 4x100 shouldn't be hard to find some sickness Wink

yo that staggered set-up looks terrible! something more subtle, like the staggered fitment i run on my vsm ek

Schmidt TH Line - 15x8j

Staggered Offset
Front - 25
Rear - 12

FYI those specs sit flush on an ek

your wheels look nice, but really thinking about just getting the lenso, cant find any others with right fitment. 15's wont fit under my brakes, am on 16's now and its about 1cm away from the brakes.

i love these blue ones so bad!

thats bigger brakes, rear disc conversion, and the ability to get sick wheels cheap, 5x114 wheels usually are cheaper thatn 4x100, as 4x100 fit more things

i thought it was an ej9, forgot its an Ek9. still,i'd say go for a 5 lug, more wheels available at good prices, and 5lug's are just plain baller
