If you want 13, 14, 15 or 16 inch brand new alloys for your civic in any of these styles or sizes let us know. Custom made to suit your car in 4 X 120 or 4 X 100 or both. These wheels are at a wholesale price, we have organised this so everyone out there can get some cheap rims in the right stud pattern and offset.

By Dave Hardy on Monday, May 08, 2000 - 05:37 pm:

How much for 13x7 Superlites drilled for both hole patterns in an offset that would work on both my 76 and my 89? Also, shipping to Atlanta, GA, USA (30030)?

By FreeRev on Tuesday, May 09, 2000 - 02:28 pm:

RaceCraft how much are we talking about when you say cost, Roughly?

By Racecraft on Tuesday, May 09, 2000 - 04:19 pm:

Individuals who are interested in these wheels can contact us. Performance Wheels would prefer to keep the prices not advertised as usually they only wholesale to tyre retailers and don't want to make the Bob Janes and tyremarts of this world unhappy. If you post here or email us direct I can let you know the price usually within the hour. The only reason i have done this is because a lot of people have questioned me on getting alloys in sizes other than 12" and 13". These guys were the only ones willing to go there.

I bought my rims from a tire outlet in Adelaide (home of Performance wheels) and they are 13x6 superlites and cost about $180 australian each and they were drilled in the factory for the 120pcd... hope thats some where in the ball park as far as cost goes :)

By Charles ( - 137.219.16.31) on Tuesday, May 09, 2000 - 06:36 pm:

Put it this way, the 16 X 6s are only $210 a piece.

By Nikolaj on Wednesday, May 10, 2000 - 03:42 pm:

Hey I'm very interested. I had contacted Superlite about theirs, but to my understanding only the 14 x 6 could be drilled to a 120 PCD!
I really dig the third wheel, though. I'm in Holland so I thought Superlite (being in UK) should be cheaper then say, US wheels.

OK, Charles (RaceCraft), On your web page under "Photos" a nice little yellow Civic has shown up... a caption says 16's. (wheels) Fill us in on the details. Those are very nice wheels. Is that your car? Tell us about clearance problems if any. You Crazy Aussies are Awsome.

By John S. ( - 216.89.156.38) on Monday, May 22, 2000 - 03:20 pm:

No doubt, Not to be complaining, but I wish those photos were suitable for framing.

By Charles ( - 137.219.16.31) on Monday, May 22, 2000 - 04:07 pm:

A customers car. I am afraid I don't have any better shots of it. It has a city turbo engine, 16's, 4 X 100pcd, old style slide back rag roof (factory). Clearance problems were restricted to lipping the guards. I personally think the wheels look great but are just a little heavy for my liking. They are US wheels. You guys are the ones with those crazy funky chrome rims!

By quikrick ( - 63.204.16.66) on Monday, May 22, 2000 - 04:16 pm:

Anything that twinkles and shines!!

Just wait 'till you see my chrome valve cover!

By Charles ( - 137.219.16.31) on Monday, May 22, 2000 - 04:37 pm:

Will be in the discussion room on and off for the next hour if you have time rick. We should deal with this head.

By Nikolaj (213.197.6.122) on Tuesday, June 26, 2001 - 11:33 pm:

Hey Charles, did you try WheelTech (Belgium)? I posted somewhere that I found out they can also supply the "Zorr" type in 15x6.5", for about 1100 guilders (that's like 700AUD), I could get them in Holland. Superlite is in the UK, they have around the same prices when I asked a year ago..

By electricks (203.9.148.1) on Friday, June 29, 2001 - 05:25 am:

By JMS (144.59.13.2) on Monday, July 02, 2001 - 08:30 pm:

ps. in 4X120mm PCD

By FireballPhil (24.165.199.28) on Tuesday, July 03, 2001 - 08:09 pm:

If 13x6 was available I would definitely be interested if the price and shipping was reasonable. Please let us know.
Phil

By Charles (139.134.35.66) on Saturday, July 07, 2001 - 07:49 pm:

Sorry Guys,

There was little interest at the time so the special rates have fallen through. The upshot is that performance wheels will continue to do these rims for the 1st gen civic. Prices should be between 180-220 AUS per rim. You will have to go through a tyre guy if you live in Australia or through Performance wheels if you are outside of Australia.

Charles

By FireballPhil (24.165.199.28) on Saturday, July 07, 2001 - 08:40 pm:

How does one get in contact with Performance Wheels?

Phil

By Nikolaj (213.197.4.3) on Saturday, July 07, 2001 - 09:38 pm:

The superlites were 75 pounds a wheel, if I remember correctly... I once got information, but this was a few years ago!

By electricks (202.129.65.51) on Sunday, July 08, 2001 - 04:25 am:
