Good luck with the centre caps. I lost two in the first six or do weeks. The seem to pop off when driving.
Ed Bonnell Thanks for telling me this issue I’ll keep watch and see if it happens with mine.
I might get these for my Acura csx, they’re at Canadian tire for around $100 each
Is the spline lug nuts really a must for this wheels? Is the diameter of splined deep socket much smaller than your car's lug nut socket?
ybrik5 The splined lugs are smaller than my other lugs. My stock lugs fit a 21mm socket and the splined ones fit close to 19 mm socket. This is also because my stock lugs are made for aluminum rims so they are wider and have a mag seat.
How's the quality after 1 year of use?
They are still great. There is maybe a chip or two but that is most likely from gravel. I didn’t have them on really for winter but still had them on for about a month with snow. Also no issues with the center caps. I only take them on and off by hand no impacts. I’ll probably make an update video soon showing what they look like now.
Hi are these rims made in Canada ?
fawaz hussin The Rims are designed in Canada but they are made in China.
@@Ralliart97 thanks for replying and good luck with you Chanel
Hi, I just got a 16" set for my civic. Did you use your car's stock lug nuts?
I test and dry fit the wheels on my car without rubber. The stock lug nuts fit but the 19mm deep socket has little clearance on the lug/socket holes. I have to be careful as it will cause some scratch. Now I can't imagine what would happen with a impact gun though...
I didn’t use my cars stock lug nuts as they are an awkward shape and don’t seat nicely with the rims. Also my stock lug nuts are for aluminum rims not steel so they have a different seat type. That is why I put the spline lugs as they seat better with this style of rim. As long as the lug nuts aren’t the mag or flat seat then they should work. As for the clearance as long as it the socket is snug and you are careful putting the lug nuts on it should be fine for scratches I haven’t had a problem with that yet. I haven’t used an impact yet so I’m not sure if it would scratch up the rims. If you are really worried about them getting scratched the safest bet is to do it by hand and/or look for other lug nut styles. Hope this helped.
@@Ralliart97 Thanks for this info. Actually my stock lug nuts are beveled on the base, they're fine with this alloy wheels, as I did it by hand. The scratches are only on the inside of the lug bore when you turn the deep socket by hand. If one is not careful inserting the deep sockets, it would score and chip off some paint on the edge of those lug bores.
I'm only worried if the tires are put and whole wheels are installed by Costco, I'm not sure if I have control over that and they would be careful to do it by hand and not use impact wrench when tightening even if I mention that in the reception.
@@Ralliart97 By the way, did you have to use hub centric rings? I did have to, 73.1 down to 64.1 (mm). Cadtire is the cheapest I can get them though.
ybrik5 I surprisingly didn’t need hub centric rings as they fit my everything like a glove and I didn’t have a problem. I originally thought I would have to but it ended up that I didn’t need them. Well fair enough getting everything put on by Costco. You definitely could tell the reception to put a note to be careful. If you got something like splined lugs it could give them a hair more space but impacts also tend to take paint off the lugs if they are painted. I keep the socket in my glove box so it can be accessed if I every take it to the dealer. If you stress it to the reception and tell them to tell the technicians to try their best not to scratch the inside of socket/lug holes I would hope they put more attention and care to make you the customer happy.
Ralliart97 This is the first time I was buying wheels and learned this is not direct fit. So even with 3mm wheel hub hole difference, I still decided with hub rings.
Regarding the center cap coming off, I am thinking to bend the C-spring at the back of the cap more outwards. Also planing to paint it matte dark grey.
i'll be buying these for my 03 JDM Legacy ! June2020
Ra's Al Awesome I bet they will look great on your Legacy. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
@@Ralliart97 i'll do a video ,eventually ! and thanks :)
