the 5th gen wheels thread

[Systemix]

OK, as many 5th gen prelude owners are constantly looking for the perfect wheels for their cars, why not have a thread with only perfect fit 5th gen wheels?
The parameters for this are in the sticky at the top of the forum, follow the wheel/tire offset/size reccomendations.
ONLY LIST RECOMENDED SIZES. If there is a question if the wheels fit perfectly look at the sticky and figure out if it fits within recommended parameters.
This thread does not include 'wheels that fit on your car'. It only encompasses wheels that are within STICKY SPEC's!!
We need them within specs so they fit for those super low luders as well
post pics if you can

I did some simply searches on WheelSpecs.com to find these results... Again, these are just wheels that will work FOR SURE, provided you follow the recommended tire sizes. I know there are more out there, but these were all of them that have the offset listed on WS.com and gives a good start. If you have found some others post them and I can update the list.

Note: I didn't list any 6.5" wide wheels because that isn't a general size that people upgrade to. If there becomes a need I can go thru.

Sorry we don't have more specs right now. There are MANY more wheels that will fit the 5th gen prelude now....mainly because of the WRX, imho - similar size/offset requirement - comapanies making wheels for them (5x100) and dual drilling them so they fit Preludes and alot of the newer Acura's too.
We're in the process of a redesign/upgrade. One of the benefits is a much quicker spec input setup for the admin. This means we aren't very likely to input many specs the old, slower way.


Here's a wheel for the 5th gen:

17x7.5 (+47) ~13.8 lbs
Stern Aguzze S07R
No longer available new, afaik. They were available in Silver or Gold with a polished lip or solid white. There are probably pics floating around of gold ones on my old car and also custom powdercoated black. They look crappy in the pics, but great in person (both colors), imho. Perfect fit stock height (gold) and lowered 1.5 (black). I think I was running 215/40 17 Yoko A520's.

Thanks GEN5, I'm planning on getting those soon. What do they look like from a short distance? I'd like to get them from PURELUDE but he hasn't gotten back to me.

CEMENTUPS....your car is AWESOME
