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.

Honda, because it's hard to look baller in your mom's Volvo.
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.

was there a 2 dood coupe in the 2nd gen??
Nope. Only 1 dood allowed. It couldn't handle the coolness that is 2 doods.
