i'm sure that the 5x114.3 is for the type r...probably a wrong offset for sure. i am under the impression that spoon is strictly honda, right?? or am i totally mistaken?

Spoon is strictly Honda. Doesn't really matter, if he contacted them asking for rims they'd send him some anyway. Not sure that's ever been done. They do look really sweet though. Someone probably could figure out the offset, if they don't work you can always sell them to a Hondaboy.

Aren't they made by rega master? I think they're the same design as some of regamaster's other rims, just that the spoon edition are black and made out of magnesium. but it should fit, but at like 4-500 bucks for 15" wheels, a bit more for the 16", I'd rather go buy some volks or something.

Some pakistani guy around here with an s2k powdercoated his stock rims black and went around telling everyone they were spoon rims, and came from the factory like that, what the hell is wrong with people?

i forget the name of the company, but they make the rims for spoon, and they do make that line of wheels for other cars just not under the spoon name, i've seen them on a R33 before, but i still think they looked out of place, when i seem them i just think honda.

They are made by Rega Master. I think they look fine on other cars. Rega Master also offers them in a 17inch, of course in varying offsets.

Rotas has them too, knock offs called slipstreams. I dont know if they carry them in our lug pattern.

I know Rota makes their wheels in 4x114.3

I think their 4 lug wheels have both bolt patterns on them.(4x100 & 4x114.3).

The Rota attacks are nice wheels too.

Not to offend anyone with rotas, but those wheels are like a staple of the riceboy diet. I just hate companies who rip off another manufacturer's original idea. I don't mean those who imitate them (although they sometimes suck too), but those who copy ideas down to the last detail. I remember seeing an ad for rota in a magazine where they had a picture of Jun's lancer evo, and they had a set of their wheels on it, which completely confused me, because I know that car has advan RG's. I looked a bit closer and saw that they just put a computer image of their wheels on that car, that just really pissed me off.

Who cares...they are substantially cheaper, and still a good quality. Rota isn't the first comapny to try and fool customers with their advertising....I mean really, you live in the US.

...and really who cares if some Hondas are rocking slipstreams? If I'm rocking some knock off wheel does that make me a riceboy? Thats like me calling you rice just because you own a Civic...

if the wheel is 4x100 or 4x114, what does the 114 mean? i know 4 meaning 4lug. I hope i'm right so far.

"Not to offend anyone with rotas, but those wheels are like a staple of the riceboy diet."lol where do you live? Rota's in nor cal are almost the best. sorry we can't afford volk's or anything expensive. and they are just as light! 10 lbs. is light! btw i just bought some 15" slipstreams today for my integra they were only 450 with new tires.(i'm not a ricer!) compare that to 400 per wheel for volks or regamasters? they would only be stolen off my car anyways. even the rota's prob will.lol ricers roll on stock steelies or spare tires all the way around. or gigantic 18's that are chromed out. slipstreams=serious performance minded honda driver. that also wants a lil style.
