I just picked up a set of stock 12" x 4.5" mag wheels. I have not seen these ones before and was told they came off a Special X. Aside from the 13" Accord wheels, how many sets of mags did Honda offer for the first gen Civics??

This is the 4th set that I have seen. Perhaps everyone could post a pic of their first gen Civic wheels and we could post this thread to the 'Knowledge Base Tree?'

I have seen the slotted ones, some 5 spoke ones (I think Farf (Kyle) has them on his and the ones that Mo grabbed from Ralphs. What else is there?

I have heard there are two slotted ones, deep dish and flat ones. The 12" ones were off a Civic and the 13" were from an Accord ??

I have a set of the Enkei/Honda rims like the ones in quickricks post that I will sell for a fair price. They have a brand new (25 miles) set of michelins on them that I paid $150 for and I don't want to split them up. Email me if anyone is interested. I am in Bellingham, WA.

Kurt the Special X came with normal 12" rims the only differnce is a cool red center cap

By Jon (Jonny) (24.64.223.204) on Monday, November 04, 2002 - 11:11 pm:

Oh ya I have a set of the Accord alloys but I need the center caps for them does anyone know were I can get them or do other ones fit? I once tried standard first gen center caps but they wouldnt fit right

Christoph, hope you don't mind but I thought I would add your wheel to this thread. Maybe Richard could add this thread to the Knowledge Base Tree for info on stock mags? Anyone else have any to add?

Kurt, the 1st picture u posted are whats refered to here in New Zealand as Tridents, the come in a deep dish as u pictured and a bubble dish, where the centre starting from the outer slots is raised out. i have them on my civic, kinda "cute" for a 12 inch model but little demons to put tyres on and off of. would post pics but servers too slow here

Nikolaj...I have the same rims on my car. They are from American Racing? Still trying to find centre caps for mine. Closest thing I have found to fit so far was yesterday....spray can lids fit almost perfect!

By Kurt Bosnell (Kurt) (66.183.148.75) on Saturday, April 19, 2003 - 12:11 pm:

I think I've seen the ones you are referring to. In fact I think Mo bought them from a local wrecker last summer.

The wheels I have (in the pic) I bought off a guy who had them sitting in a field behind his place. A little polish and they turned out like new and I spun them on a balancer and they're straight! its too bad there not 13's though.

I two pics of after market mags too if you want a thread of after market.

By Ed (66.185.85.77) on Sunday, April 20, 2003 - 12:49 pm:

the first one is aftermarket, but I believe the second mag is a Honda OEM alloy. it is in the 76 or 77 accessories brochure
