Boilermaker1 is a splendid one to behold

Unless there's something I'm not aware of... that's the concept... and you can't get those rims cuz they don't make em. Maybe someone had custom caps made.

This is correct... but you'd need 5 lug hubs to use em on a USDM Civic. And the CTR rims are Silver.

the rims that you most likely saw were on a new civic that has the "factory performance package" we had one at the dealership here in fayetteville that got sold not too long ago. its a split 7 spoke, gunmetal i belive. i dont htink you can order them, because they only come on the new FP civics. thats jsut what i heard though. i imagine they're hella expensive too
edit: if youw ant to see a picture of them, some of the more recent import tuners and super streets have a honda add on the back cover, advertising the new action package, and it has a pic of the rims there
