Honda FP/Type R Rims

I'm looking for 17 inch Honda FP rims, they are dual 7 spoke, and they look a lot like the ones that come on 03 Civic Type R only, these are of course, 4 lug. I tried honda.com and honda accessories, but they dont have these rims. You can find pic. of these on back of any magazine cover with red and black 7th gen. Does anybody know anything about these wheels or where to get them ?

Suposedly you can only get them by purchasing the whole FP package (4pc body kit, 16 inch wheels, 1 inch eibach lowering springs, FP shift ****, and FP badges). Try E-bay maybe someone will part away with their's.

some dealers sell the FP's seperately. ask around locally.

There is a guy in ephatch.com that talked his local honda dealer into selling him the rims from the package. Just beg them.

A honda dealer by me had 17's. For sure. I asked them if they were for sale they said no. Only with the car that they were on.

It was an LX with OEM kit and spoiler and those rims......and the aluminum dash kit

What color were the rims? Keep in mind that the FP wheels are grayish, gunmetal.

The Civic Type R wheels are silver or white as 17s, plus they aren't 4-lugged wheels, they're 5-lugged.

Yeah man the wheels I saw were 17's and gunmetal with a red center cap. They were 4-lug obviously since they were on a USDM civic.

This is the factory performance wheel. I take back saying it was a dark gray. I thought it was.

It's actually quite silver, and this is definitely a 16.

Those were the ones I was asking about. Not 16's, but 17's Type R rims. Are they available for purchase anywhere just like that gunmetal with red accents, 4 lug of course ??

the factory performance wheels are a dark gray, not light silver. However, I doubt that you'll be able to even get a hold of a set of type r wheels. IMO I would like to have the JDM Integra Wheels, but $2000??? I don't think so.

I believe they are on the Internet somewhere... the CTR wheels.

I wouldn't buy them. They are 23lbs each.
