I have been looking for these rims, for let's say about 1 year now, basically ever since i bought my car and i have never yet encountered somebody selling them on or off line. The only way I can see you getting a hold of such rims is through american classifieds or ebay. Get ready for expensive shipping costs.

Anyway those rims are GREAT, and if you do come across a place that has them, please drop me a line. If you don't mind size, then maybe you should look into 13" VX, which are exactly the same just an inch smaller. Note: they will only work if your car is CX, DX, LX, VX, will not work on Si or SiR.

if you look carefully, you'll see a few HX civics here in toronto. i've seen about 3 myself. i even yelled out to a guy at a light to pullover. he thought i was psycho when i offerd him 600 for his rims. i admit that was to much but those were the first numbers that came out of my mouth. he wasnt interested but i gave him my number anyway. i have my eye on another set also here in toronto, just have to wait till i see the car again to talk to the owner.

right now i'm riding on 14inch miata rims which look similar to the HX rims. they wiegh 10.8lbs.
not sure what the HX rims weigh but it's probably around the same neighborhood.
they're both made by enkie i believe.

You are not alone, so far i have spotted THREE in my entire life and i have taken licence plates down and planning on contacting them. We will see how it goes...If not i might just go down to buffalo.

How much did you pick up the Miata rims for? I know exactly which ones you are talking about...why get rid of them? How much would you sell them for?

i'm not planning on getting rid of them anytime soon

i didnt really have to pay for them since i got them from a family member who owns a miata. just spent $15 on GM paint and put them on my car.

i might sell them if i get my hands on the HX rims but we'll see.
i'll let you know if i do...

Lol, well what a coincidence. My parents also own a Miata (wellok family members) however it's the newest model and they came out with really bad looking wheels, pure rice imo so 13 inchers for me.
