I just sold my MR5s last week...I only had a pair with high hopes to find a match. I gave up after 3 weeks of searching and sold them to a HT member.

I then found out that Mugen makes a newer gen MR5, but as anything else "Mugen" you'll pay out of your ass for them.

The rims are on ebay from time to time and ones in decent shape will cost you around a G note.

I'd love the CF's, but I just can't justify the money...

    • Drives: 1987 CRX DX. Upgrades (so far) Illuminas on all four corners, new rims & tires & Eldo's carb mod. Needs some rust repair. 1993 Civic Si as a daily driver that I have sworn to keep stock (so $$ can go to the CRX).
I've been wondering this for awhile, are the CF-48s designed to help cool the brakes?
They look like they might, then I saw that first pic in Airjockie's post. With those covers on, the fins would pull air though them like on vented brake rotors.

Ever look at a fan clutch on an older car...same design...it sucks in air like mad.

When I finally get the CRX on the road, I need to get some tires, so while it's on the balance machine...I'll see how much air it pushes.
