I was considering getting these instead of the Fit HFP wheels, but I don't think it would flow as well. It would just make the Fit look like an older Honda.
Excuse the crappy chop (my photoshop skills suck). I found the Si pictures after I started the chop. Somebody want to crop out the wheels from the Si and put it over the Fit?

good luck finding them for a decent price.
there is a another hfp wheel for the ep3 called the r5 that is made in a scaled down 16 inch version that has a 4 lug pattern. it costs the same as this wheel.
its damn expensive for a regular weight wheel with no tires. i love the way they look though!

I've thought about doing this as well, but the sets I've seen have never been cheap.

Those are actually Ep3 Type-R wheels. 
Someone made a thread about ordering the HFP's a while back. He never post pics of them on his Fit. I actually think the wheels are pretty nice. HFP wheels are normally pretty ugly too.

i dont mean that they are bbs or volk expensive, just expensive for what they are. both those wheels at h and a are 168.00 EACH. muliply that by 4 and add some shipping charges and you now have a set of relatively heavy (although well made) oem wheels for 700 bucks, WITHOUT a set of tires to go with em. compared to what rota or konig can offer you (and at a lighter weight) it simply is not the most weight or cost effective route.
don't get me wrong, i love both those wheels, and i think they would look great, but if i were to buy them, it would be mostly for looks, and i would not try arguing with people that they were cheap.

honda oem rims dont shatter or break when u go over a pothole. they're quality made. i believe they're manufactured by enkei.
regardless. when it comes to rims, you get what you pay for: in terms of durability, finish, etc..

the HFP wheels are actually 02-03 EP3 HFP wheels, not 04-05. 04+ EP3s were 5-lug and their HFP wheels were 5 spokes.

have you consistently had konigs and rotas 'shatter' on you when you have driven over all the pot holes over in cali?
again man, take this with a grain of salt, I LIKE OEM HONDA WHEELS. just don't say they are cheap. they aren't.

i have never had aftermarket rims in my life, but i've heard some things and pictures about rotas being poor quality
not so much about konigs though but i bet there's stories out there
shatter over potholes?? dammmnnnn thats intense
i just visited my local tuner shop and i could get the buddy club spf challenge white w/ red outline for $650 shipped so that looks promising, doe anyone hav experience w/ buddy clubs??

Theyre Work Emotions as said above. White Emotions special order from Japan. He wanted 4 months I believe for those. Dare I call Emotions rare..... white ones maybe but only because no one wants to wait.
