Intmd8r Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 I'm doing one last mcok-up of my build for Cranky's "Naked" CB, and I need you help! Help me decide which wheels look the best. Here are the choices: 1. Honda Silver 5-spokes (a.k.a. "Blades") 2. Silver Mugen 5-spokes 3. Chrome Mugen M-5's (a.k.a. "Spider Webs") 4. Gunmetal Acura Integra Type R wheels Thanks for looking, Steve
bryan_m Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 my vote goes out for #1...... i think those ones look great on there. oh, and what a nice build, very well put together and clean! cheers bryan
TheGrandfatherHobbies Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 slam it out on those blades man! jdm!
GerN Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 I'd pick 3 - distinctive, and their delicacy goes with the car.
fredgsanford Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 i like the gunmetal ones and the stock honda ones. The honda ones are the only ones that would fit the car in real life (4 lug vs 5 lug )
Patrick2005 Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 If you wanted to get real technical Scott, you can make 5 lug wheels fit. You just have to change the hubs to Acura Integra Type R's. Very common swap in the tuner world.

Intmd8r Posted September 30, 2012 Author Posted September 30, 2012 Thanks to everyone for the feedback. I'm kinda surprised that the opinions are almost as split as my parts box options lol. My intent for this CB project was for a reasonable stock Civic with mild mmods. That is why I built this kit as Left hand drive and stock height suspension. The only things left to do is add the wheels and glass. Sorry to disapoint some of you looking for the "slammed" look, but maybe my next Honda build . I was leaning towards the Mugen M-5's that I purchased specifically for this build or the Type R wheels (mainly because my daily driver is a Silver Acura with Gunmetal rims ). There's no denying that the box stock "Blades" look good as well. I guess we'll have to see what the final product looks like .
