They look like 1985 Si wheels, but the center cap is the old-style Honda "H" which predates the CRX. I would guess that they are some sort of optional wheel from the 1970's.

The entire tool selection at Sears or the contents of a Snap-On truck will do you no good if you do not know how to use them.

'70s (and I think very early '80s) Accords and Preludes had the same bolt pattern as ours, so that's my guess, too. I swear I've seen these before...damn...now I won't be able to sleep thinking about it...

That sure makes sense. I finally remembered where I saw them - a long time ago I tried to buy a set off a 2G Civic owner (not sure where he got them) to install on my '82 Wagovan. I couldn't afford the spiffy alloys, so I had to settle for 13" steelies.

projEKtjokes - AFAIK 2G Civics were only "3-door" hatchbacks, 4-door sedans, or wagons. (There were 1G 2-door Civics with teeny weeny trunks instead of hatches, but they weren't really coupes and pretty much looked like the hatchback models.) Honda didn't make 2-door Civic coupes until later gens, when they realized Americans just didn't appreciate the practicality of hatchbacks.

E-AT_me - You do indeed rule, those are great pictures! Japanese market wheels? Back then it wasn't JDM, of course.

Nope. Only 1 dood allowed. It couldn't handle the coolness that is 2 doods.
