They may be difficult to get from anywhere else but for starters try you local Honda parts department.

indeed. i gave up on them long ago. just give it time though, i'm certain that eventually they will decide to offer them at an expensive price.

Yea FP are 16s, RARE wheels only found on the FP Civic which didnt sell because of the 25k price tag. The dealership will only sell the 4 they dont sell single. I have a friend that works at Honda and the wheels sell for over 4k for the set. They not too light.

i think they're 2G's for the rims, new. i have done extensive research on them. most dealers wont sell them to you seperate from the fp civic though. if you curb one or damage them, you have to buy another set (yes, all 4). aside from that, the wheels are rather heavy. a member told me he picked one up once and said it was a little on the hefty side for 16"s. i like them though, but not the best bang for my buck imo.

i figure a nice set of Si hatch wheels will do me good.

Don't let wheel locks give you a false sense of security, they can be removed in a matter of minutes. If a theif is determined to get something, they're gonna get it.

Yes, If a theif wants some thing bad enough, they know around it. but what about the amateur, it will probably deter them. When I get my rims, im getting wheels locks. Anything to Deter a their is good for me. That is also partial why most everyone has insurance on their cars.

Wire your lug nuts to explode if you don't take them off with a computer chip key that only you have.

That will deter theives

Um, the explosion would probably damage your rims, too. But, uh, you can't have your rims stolen if the attacker blows up.

btw those are pretty cool looking, but they sound like a rip off (expensive and heavy).
