Is there a site where I can go look these rims up? BTW, is it possible to buy things like center caps separately? Or am I scratching monkey balls?

They look vaguely familiar.

The caps that are on them look to be incorrect.

And yes, you can buy replacement center caps all day long. I'd recommend ebay, search for "center caps" and a specific wheel brand (such as "Work", so you get ones with the same center bore).

There's probably 50 wheel companies that have come around & gone broke which produced a wheel with a generic center cap looking near identical to that wheel.

Aftermarket wheels with very little lug nut bore clearance to require the use of hex head female lug nuts (still in use in the photos) made a very brief appearance about 2001.

Finding a center cap won't be to hard, but man, those wheels look beat. There has got to be a better deal out there on wheels..

Lol. I know I know. I think everybody could use a new set of wheels. I am trying to fix everything on the car. And try to make everything work before I upgrade. You would have to agree that finding this cap would be much cheaper than buying a set of wheels. (a nice set anyway) I have been looking at the postings on ebay for caps,(man, their system is so freaking slow). And there are so many to look through. But I'm doing it.

Smith does have a point about age of the wheels, and it not being available any more. Ugh! I will keep trying. I wish there was a site with every, and any wheel ever produced. With a big "no longer available" stamped on the ones out of comission.

Hey guys, I've been doing my homework. I looked at every single cap on ebay. Oh god! How grueling. Ebay is so god damn slow. Nothing after 140 pages. But I did get a tip from the previous owner of the car. He wasn't much help.

He did tell me he saw them on the latest issue of Modified magazine. It's an ad from FRAM oil filters. The rims are on an Integra. Sooo, somehow I'm supposed to research that. HELP.

No problem. Use $10 to get a center cap. Thanks for your kind though. When clearcorners.com first started their business, they put clear tail lights on pearl white s13 coupe and it had these wheels, so I knew...
