The Spoon wheel with the accompanying lugs and calipers is pretty rock solid. Those and the Mugen MF8’s are some of the original Honda bro dream wheels.
The original SW388 & Regamaster were both made by Desmond in Russia. The new versions are both manufactured by Taneisya in Japan but don’t have any relation to each other, other than that. The new SW388 is commissioned by Spoon and the new Desmond Regamaster name was bought by ICB Motorsports and commissioned by them. That’s why the new SW388 and new EvoII have different designs-they just happen to be made in the same place in Japan.
Chris I’m going to ask because I know you know the answer. What’s the differences between the og Evo and the evo 2? I notice the lips and possibly the spokes are different widths.
@@barnfind124 yes the sizes and offsets offered are different. I don’t know all the various differences though. One of the bigger design differences has to do with the “slots” or valleys on the sides of the spokes. Also now, ICB seems to have released an Evo II “tarmac” model which incorporates the flatter lip that some OG’s had. (The OG had both style lips also but I think which lip you got depended on the diameter or model). But other than minor design changes I’d say the biggest difference is that the EVO II should be a lot stronger than the old ones due to modern manufacturing techniques. All the OG are very old these days and they have a tendency to develop a crack on the inside lip of the barrel.
@@ChrisLumNSX yeah all those points make sense and I agree. The og wheels imo are noticeably better looking I think. The new sw388 are definitely different looking from any view compared to the og sw388s. Appreciate the comment back.
@@trackshun Some people just need showing the good stuff. I had a set of slips on my first track car as I liked the style and didn't know any better. Now I race on Rays and have a wheel company.
I’m estimating that on a 205 you may only need to run -3 camber in the front with the 7.5 width. Which is the most I would personally go. You also need to remember that most of the little Honda bro’s are removing the front liners because they don’t care. I say DO NOT remove the liner or you’ll have more gravel in the jambs than what you want. Other option is to remold the liners by heating them up and pressing in on the rub areas.
3-4 degrees negative in the front is actually perfect for a FWD track setup. Will be less likely to roll onto the sidewall/edge and push the front end through a corner. I like the sw388 wheels on the car. But am still partial to the CE28's.... also a set of Bronze or Formula Silver OG tE37s would look amazing.
My vote is for the spoon. I'm really sure you would like these weds sport tc105n they have a very nice finish and it would show off the spoon calipers very nicely with the spoon spec which is the +30 offset I believe. Thank me later

Ive always had a passion for cars and i just recently started working at honda in my spare time i love watching TH-cam videos of cars. I subscribed almost immediately when i saw this, this is literally the most beautiful civic ever looks like i have a bunch of content to catch up on!!!
Spoon hood, Spoon mirrors, Spoon brakes, gotta have Spoon wheels. Anything else just doesn't belong lol. That being said, I remember building my Si in NFSUG2 exactly like this (but with the Rota Slipstreams) when I was like 12 lol
Brings back memories. In 1999 I owned a red 99 Si with white spoon wheels I think and a dunk exhaust. It was stolen while I was working. That was the end of my civic experience lol.
Spoon made the SW388s in collaboration with Desmond which had HQ in Russia. They make forged wheels. Desmond Regamaster (Evo) are a more show-y edition of the SW388 being that the Spoon versions have a specific finish for racing lacking even the slightest ounce or gram of weight that is spent on coating. Newer ones have a fold on the end of the spokes into the wheel's barrel like you pointed out in the video. Desmond Regamaster has been under the production of Monster Sport now and are not currently in production for a while.
Always loved the shape of 16” Regas over the Spoon wheels. The smoother lip of the Regas look so much better! But I really love the Mugen MF-10’s in 16” bronze over both the others.
Man your shop and that car… gotta be one of the most beautiful set ups I’ve ever seen… I’d pay too dollar to work in a shop like that! Just found your channel and subscribed! From one very long time Honda guy to another… I’m blown away!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I’m going to sound real old but I had 15” Spoon wheels on my EM1 Civic Si back in 2000. They’re definitely an acquired taste after watching hours of Spoon race cars lapping tracks and setting records. It is a race wheel and they worked great on track. I had a street set I’d swap to when I wasn’t on track. I didn’t like the look enough to justify the cost and eventually sold the wheels.
Matt, I’m sure you get a lot of hate from all the money you spend on this Car. And while people might say that the same money can be spent on better wheels, I think there is something special in even placing such iconic wheels on the car. I’ve never been a Honda fanboy, I’ll be the first to say that I think it’s pretty awesome that your doing this for the community (even though it’s for yourself), Kind of living peoples younger dreams and fantasy’s by will haha. The series will go down as a comprehensive database for upgrades all the civic boys for the rest of TH-cam’s future - something that’s never been done before. I think that’s pretty cool in itself. You can probably promote the giveaway more in the beginning to maximise profits - I’m sure the loyal subs won’t mind. Keep up the killer work Matty. We appreciate the process.
Big Honda Bro here , Love the spoons 👌🏼Classic. But when I win this car I’ll prob have TE37s on one side and Spoons on the other. #ihopeiwin #please #dreamcometrue #lifeiscomplete #detailislife #hondalife
Inb4 Honda Bro’s tshirt. The decals make a big difference and will make the wheels more interesting once installed. I refinished Kosei k1 recently and installing the factory decals was a nice touch of detail. I have 15x7 +38 205/50/15 RE71R on my ITR. No roll and camber -2.2 /-1.8 Mild 35mm drop (from already lower ITR height) and they just fit. Keep in mind RE71R run wide. I think you can fit the Spoon 16x7.5 and 205 and the negative camber won’t be very noticeable. Spoon theme.
What I have on my Civic SI, are 195/50 R15 with same style and finish wheel as the Spoon. Also best way to explain that type of finish on the Spoon wheels, its like a new chalkboard.
Need a 205 or 195 tires on the Spoon wheels. I ran 195/40/16 on BBS RS 16x7.5 wheels (on a VW) and they fit great with very little stretch. Some tires look better stretched than others. Depends on the sidewall profile of the tire and if it has a rim protector or not. If you don't like the finish on the Spoon wheels get them blasted and powdercoated in any color you desire!
It’s unfortunate the finish on the spoons are temperamental, but either wheel looks really nice. I’d personally choose the Spoon of the two to match the brakes. Can’t lose with any of the chosen wheels though aside from fitment. All great wheel choices!
I believe Desmond made regamaster and the spoon wheels. It's basically the same wheels with different finish. They were made in Russia back then the new Regamaster Evo II is made in Japan.
My vote has to go with The SW388s, you don’t get more JDM and period correct. Plus the awesome calipers and the center caps. Fantastic! I had an electron blue Si back in the day and I had bronze Volk CE28s and I thought that was the best wheel and now I’m kinda wishing I had gone with the Spoon wheels
Not sure if you addressed this but do you plan on running the OEM optional rear lip? I feel like it really sets off the em1 and completes the car. +110 Jdm little honda bro points too.
Matt it is almighty grey heard it called on the Regas. Should of done white with stickers to pull the red emblems out on the si! and yes Spoon I believe was a specific build by Desmond. I have a set of 16x7 Regas on my 2000 Integra Type R.
Regamasters for me. There’s just something about the way they looked with those lug nuts. I’m curious to see them once the tires are switched and you apply the stickers. That may make or break the look due to the red which to that I would say maybe red calipers but I’m not sure.
So I've paused 30 secs in to this vid, straight away I would pick the Regamaster purely by it's centre design around the bolt holes, the Spoon's look like cheap multi-fit wheels (I understand they aren't). Likewise the matt Black is a poor choice of colour on any car that is a 'looker'. Personally I'd opt for a silver wheel, so you can actually see them on the car & appreciate the intricacies of the design. Love the series & the car so far. EBP EM1 has a special place in my heart.
Sik vid lilHandaBro. I’m torn bro’s. I love the look (no added holes by lugs), the glossy finish, the 16x7 ET38 of the Regas. But that color on EBP? 🥴 The spoons have that god awful spray paint like finish. I have the fix. Refinish the Regas in gloss black. Or do the sensible thing and TE everything. 🤔
Matt the gt3 & gt4 are awesome cars. I know a car that will tick all the same boxes for a faction of the gt3, and it makes a great daily driver the Lotus Evora. You can pick up a used one for 40k to 50k or New for around 110,000. In my opinion used is the path to go, for 40 or 50 you can get one with around 15 to 20 thousand miles on the clock. Take a look you want regret it.
I am not nearly as picky as Matt clearly. I love both sets of wheels. Btw the green or olive I would say looks great on the electron blue. I like that finish better than the flat black personally.
Spoon wheels and try the new 205/45/16 595Rs-pro tire. Federal runs a little wider so the 205 fits the ek chassis almost perfect and I love the grip they offer.
Definitely prefer the spoon. Sure the finish on them could use some tlc given your high standards but i’m sure it’s nothing you can’t resolve. That and switching to the 205 it should fit perfectly to avoid the dreaded hot boy look.
The thing that always bothered me looking at these Civics even when they’re all shiny show ready and pretty was the flat black door pillars personally I always painted those plastics on all the earlier Honda’s I had when I was younger so the side of car looks like one big piece of glass black and shiny

Can never go wrong with the JDM SPOON WHEELS
I like this style wheels the best, for the first time the rear doesn't look ugly. The offset should be a tad lower perhaps +33 rather than +38.
This car deserves more. Some nr10r with the teal center cap would be perfect. Out of the two however def sw.
You’re so true to yourself, I love it!
I knew I always wanted them I also knew I wouldn't like either one on the car. story of my life.

Spoon wheels for sure with 205’s or the 215’s made to work with suspension adjustments and roll the rear quarters a bit more.
Definitely go with the Spoon wheels. Look MUCH better. And if you coat them it will give them a little satin look.
Just a little tip the rt660 are slightly wider then the RE71r on the same size
Best civic build with very tasteful modification choices
Matt the gt3 & gt4 are awesome cars. I know a car that will tick all the same boxes for a faction of the gt3, and it makes a great daily driver the Lotus Evora. You can pick up a used one for 40k to 50k or New for around 110,000. In my opinion used is the path to go, for 40 or 50 you can get one with around 15 to 20 thousand miles on the clock. Take a look you want regret it.
Spoon fits the build so much with the carbon hood
I am not nearly as picky as Matt clearly. I love both sets of wheels. Btw the green or olive I would say looks great on the electron blue. I like that finish better than the flat black personally.
Yup I’m a Little Honda bro. Love it!
What time does swim wheels are made for racing not for sure. Off in storage. They also make ones that are not universal cut like yours.
205/45/16 on the spoon should work perfect!
I wish Mugen CF-48 were still for sale new. Full black, 15" +38 offset, with aero disks. Old school Honda! 🔰
Spoon for the win
spoon with 205's is gonna be the key !
Spoon wheels and try the new 205/45/16 595Rs-pro tire. Federal runs a little wider so the 205 fits the ek chassis almost perfect and I love the grip they offer.
No question Matt - Spoon wheels
