Honda OEM Aluminum 15 inch rims? Direction?

OK
I have a 94 prelude vtec with the aluminum rims that came on it as you can see.

Look at the direction of the wheel pattern? Mine are the same on the same side, but I am wondering if anyone knows how Honda wanted them as far as direction?

Most say that's the correct way, "cutting into the wind".

What do you mean?
I have a hard enough time getting out of it now....

I am glad you told me that about direction of wheels.

I had seen a car last week and the patterns did not match on the "same" side.

Drives an OCD person like me crazy.

Here's more proof that you have them the right way (I'm OCD too):

http://images.automotive.com/reviews.../96prelude.jpg

This photograph was from Honda's advertisements when the 4th gen was around. A lot of people have them the other way because when they have their tires changed, the tire people assume that it's supposed to be the opposite way, but of course they're wrong because they don't know any better. I have a 5th gen now but when I had my 4th, the tire people effed it up and I had to correct them.

As for your parents not letting you drop it, you can always just get some 1" Tanabe Super-H springs and hope they don't notice.
