Xeryon Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 So I found these: To put on this: The tires are garbage, but the rims are excellent, but no H center caps. The caps are just graphite painted generics. I have some reservations though. I know for a fact that these do not fit the EH's due to the rear offset/rear rotor assembly being incorrect for the fitment of this wheel. Anyone try putting these on their sol before? Just wanted to make sure they were going to fit correctly before spnding the money. There we go. A little work with GIMP and I don't think she looks bad. Not the greatest pic for lining up wheels, but it does the trick. I do like the bronze/blue color scheme. The car already has a bronze pinstripe on it too.

Xeryon Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 i know that the aux lights are no, i wondered if anyone was going to say anything was practicing with the program. what you can't see, and that is a good thing is that I fixed the dented hood, removed the license plate and bracket and covered up the fact that the wife has a thing for save the earth stickers being put on the windshield. my skills are gradually improving. Whats the verdict on the wheels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Repsol Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Wanna sell those vx rims? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeryon Posted October 3, 2007 Author Share Posted October 3, 2007 i don't even own them yet! btw, these wheels in very good condition with no damage to the finish, no rash and generic centercaps what would you say would be a good price? Remember they are 13's and essentially are rims only, since the tires are garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Matteu Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 x3772: "...no damage to the finish," Question, how did they get to be the color they are now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeryon Posted October 3, 2007 Author Share Posted October 3, 2007 as far as i know that bronze-ish color is a factory color edit: maybe not, i don;t know. the finish on them is in good condition. it is not marred up, not faded or peeling or anything. The wheels are not oversprayed on and they weren't recently done as there are some minor marks in the finish as you would expect for 10+ year old wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airjordan223 Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 someone painted them because they came from the factory as silver. i guess the person did a really good job then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Matteu Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 I am an OEM kinda guy, so to me the finish is damaged since it is not the silver they came in. I have never seen an OEM set in that color, but I did not want to assume anything as I may have simply never seen these. Not knowing whether this is an OEM color, I did not want to comment on it. Personally, I feel that color will only work with a black car. Huge minus that the centers are a different color and do not have a Honda logo, age related wear-n-tear aside.

Xeryon Posted October 3, 2007 Author Share Posted October 3, 2007 yea, but 9.4 pounds each is very enticing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolLesHonda Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 That del sol is absolutely awful. Stock height and 13's LOL. My car is dumped completely on 14's. 13's is pushing it. My oil pan is literally 2 inches from the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeryon Posted November 1, 2007 Author Share Posted November 1, 2007 obviously it is awful. We've already covered the fact that I am particularly bad at PS bleh . The change wasn't for looks, it was to further improve mileage in the commuter car we use. I didn't do it anyway as I couldn't find $150 at the time.
