If I was in the market for new rims I'd be all over these!...

Great price for their condition even if the tyres don't have oodles of life left.

Food for thought...

At ET48 you'd need some serious spacers to get them to sit like that though!!

I nearly bought a set in white, ET30, but missed the end of auction by 10 mins :facepalm: but not all is lost as I ended up with the BuddyClub's instead :)

My Weds are et43, so you'd only need 5mm spacers to get them the same spacing as mine, which are practically as close as you'd want to go without pulling the lips...

If you wanted the same broken suspension look as that 5th then it's simply hubcentric spacers, longer studs, pulled lips and you're away!

However those are no flat faced with the dish like the prelude pictures you posted.

You only get the flat face and dish when at 17x9 or above.

If I didn't have my weds these would be what I'm running but in 9" form.

get a spare bootlid 8-) and swap it round when you feel like considering its so angular the 5g really does look smooth from certain angles

Genius! 8)

I better wait until I have an organised space that isn't in the house before I opt for that though :lol:

that's what I am doing I am not selling my carbon lips when I put the mugen stuff on I will just get it rubbed down and relaquered so I can swap it about when I feel like I might even go for a spoilerless boot lid
