I've got a set of OEM wheels sitting in my basement taking up space. I can check on the shipping costs if you are interested. I'll look at them again and see what condition they are in. Obviously they are used.. but I don't think they have any curb rash or anything too bad. I do know that the tires are horrible and need to be yanked off there. I'll get back to you on it.

I think all 4 bolt Honda wheels are 4x100 not 4x114.3

Not sure if its been mentioned. But maybe recommend B15 Sentra Spec-V wheels (maybe even B16, not sure). But they would fit, be newer, but would be 17s I think. Just an easy solution and keep OEM wheels.

The Spec V wheels look pretty good but you would really need some fatty spacers since the offset is so high. Here is a pic of how they look on my coupe with 30mm spacers on the rear and 25mm spacers in the front.

Bill, 4x4.5 is your bolt pattern.It means 4 lug and 4.5" bolt circle. 4x114.3 is just the metric conversion. 4 lugs 114.3 bolt circle.Good luck with your wheel search.Can't wait to see some pics after the install.

I like the Spec V wheels as well.. had them on my old 96 240.. But sounds like Bill is def. looking for 15" to keep a softer ride and less money in rubber.

Bill.. sorry for the delay on my end.. I've been under the weather, and I just don't have the energy to move the heavy things in my basement that I need to in order to get to those wheels. Give me another day or two and I'll get you pictures of them. Sorry.

Look in classifieds or in the B15 Sentra section, ebay, etc.

I love those Spec-V rims on a 240. I was really thinking about getting a set for my vert but then I learned of the offset...as well as the price. Peeps want way too much for them around here.

That is an OEM lip I bought off a guy on Craig's list. You can find them, but mostly on hatchbacks. I lucked out and got all the stock mounting hardware and lip for $70.They are hard to find, but they are out there.

That's the PDM one (PDM-racing.com). Can't tell if the other one may be slightly different though.

Oh, the black coupe is mine.

The lip is a Veilside replica lip. You can get one from http://www.bings.ca/
