Anyone have "prelude" wheels? - Honda Prelude Forum

Does anyone on this site and the OEM Honda wheels that say "prelude" in the middle instead of an H? I saw them on ebay once and i love em. I was also wondering where i could get a set.

I do, they are from the 95 SE Prelude. Only thing is with my set the center cap still has the "H" symbol. If you are interested hit me up with a PM. They are used and come with tires.

iknow for sure those were an option in 93 i just checked the booklet. but i know they are rare.

they were an option in every year (I believe) but were very rare.
Here is a pic if anyone wants to know what I'm talking about ( well a really ****ty pic)...

My boy has those on his 96 vtec. He is keeping them over aftermarket rims. They look so good on there too.

any pix of your buddies car?

I have them.....i like the looks of them over my 17's.....they just stand out and NO ONE has them. I would sell, but i would regret it, and yes, mine do say "prelude"

this is the closest to side view pic i can get of the car....you get the idea though:

oh, mine are starting to fade and have curb damage from the person that had them before me....how much would they (wheel shop) charge to re-do the wheels? like make them look new. oh, and where can i get something to make the insides say "Prelude" again, mine are kinda all faded over the years except for one.

Hey PM me I can you a brand new set fairly cheap.

The "Prelude" center caps retails for 35.23 each. The SE wheels are cool, but 15s are just too small. I wish they were 16" like the 5th gen

I like willmbrk's better cuz of the painted inserts. Makes the spokes look thinner.

But I still prefer the sawblades (lightest also).

Ok, on hparts.com they are $89 per wheel plus $39 to ship all 4. So basically, it will cost $400 shipped. It's like getting 3 wheels for free if you bought one from Honda lol.

Actually, I believe that the 1995 SE wheels (I have them too, I get so many comments about them!) are lightest of all, having read that they come in at 15 pounds.

willmbrk · 08-06-2003, 11:15 AM

Yeah, the SE wheels are the lightest. Thats why I got them. I like them alot, but damm the 15 inch size

SlowSi · 08-06-2003, 01:39 PM

Oh, damn...oh well...2 pounds isn't a big difference. Thought they were 21 because hparts said the shipping weight is 84 lbs.
