i would honestly rock my oem si’s before them… just not my style
Just found a set of em. The fitment is way off though.
I’ve always liked these ever since my friend had them on his EF. His weren’t CPs though. I may have to get them for nostalgia purposes. Plus, they are clean & period correct. (or pretty close) Not to mention they’re low key, as many have the knock off, so they’re less likely to come up missing.
here’s the real deal:

Ha! I’ve been sayin the same thing for years…I dont understand the new generations fixation with these wheels…Back then they were shit, and they’re still shit now…They were part of Enkei’s dark years, Fuck, i remember you could even buy em at SEARS! Now people swear they’re OG…:gayfight:
Well, I’ve been searching for a few hours now, & these guys are right. You can find some badass, period correct, OG wheels @ decent prices. If you’re willing to pay for the current Enkeis you can afford the OG JDM wheels.
No, I won’t say where, 'cause you ain’t gettin my rare shit w/o a fight! I’m a self professed OG wheel whore now, there’s no turning back!!!
BTW- What wheels were we rockin’ in the early 90’s over in the States? Any USA brands, euro,or just JDM? I feel like a weenie not knowing this stuff; I’m 26 yrs old now & never got into cars this deep until I got this G2. God I love my car!

[QUOTE=imcnblu;1952887]Love your car, btw
But I will have to disagree. Though the Enkei 92’s might not be everyone’s cup of tea, I’m curious as to whether you are talking about just the 92’s or about Enkei in general.
The RPF1’s are one of the better wheels on the market, when it comes to function. Light and EXTREMELY durable. Not to mention extremely fresh looking. Truly, a timeless wheel.
Not intending to argue, as everyone that knows me, knows that isn’t my style.
Btw, did you ever get that new setup finished? I remember you were swapping air tanks, or something to that affect. Right? I’d like to see how your car is coming along. Truly, the epitome of DUUUUUUUUUUUMPED.[/QUOTE]
In the 80’s and early 90’s Enkei had nothing but copies of other companies wheels. They were just like Rota is now. They sold a crapload of inexpensive knock offs. They were neither rare or sought after. Every place that sold wheels had them. For that matter, most Japanese companies were cheap knock offs.
Good wheels were OZ/MSW/Fittipaldi, Momo, BBS, all application specific offsets and hub bores. You do not find application specific wheels anymore unless very expensive. Enkei was a one size fits all wheel like all modern wheels have become. Actually most of all that old crap wheels came in bmw/vw low offsets that stick out. That is trendy now, putting the wrong wheels on. Back then we called them stupid for not buying the right wheels that fit.
My car is still sitting. I was going to change from air to hydros but have since cut up my daily driver. The crv is now getting the hydros. I don’t think the integra will be worked for a long time to come.
Note: cheap thai knock off wheels included
By the way those enkeis were about 80-100 bucks a set when new.
wow, now enkei went from rags to riches now making wheels for F1 cars:read: does that mean i should go and buy rotas:)
now now, you should know better than that :giggle:
Luciferi, I’m deeply saddened to hear that the Integra has been put on the back-burner, however, the green ride is crunk.
+1…million!
lol
and its boosted, that shit is sick:rockon:

Rota also made them. They were called Subzero’s. They look best in either 15 or 16’s. I had a set on my old 4door civic ED4.
Mine were originally black, then the previous owner rattle canned them with a bronze. I stripped to show their true polished beauty.
These were true to form with the OG wheels of the Racing Hart CP-035R’s.

So over there they use the USDM parts to stand out?! Now that’s irony! I’m gonna move over there w/ my DA & blow their minds! I can hear it now:
(translated to engrish)
“Holy crap Sato, he’s got a left hand drive DA! That’s sick! Did he import it or do a swap?”
“I don’t know Kuyuchi, but I wish I had one like that.”
“See if he’ll sell you any parts Sato.” ROTFLMAO
