thanks fort the advise, but it dont see why its a problem to post this here. even if torontocvics members are cheap. it doesn't hurt to post them here. sorry you didn't get what you wanted for your spoon rims.
i figure since these are for a civic 4x100 that the people here might be interested in them.
spoons are only available in 15x6.5 same with rota slipstreams.
my R2's are 15x7 so you can fit wider tires with proper contact patch. these are one of the lightest wheels in the world for 15x7 size. there is only a few lighter which are so rare and expensive that you cant find them. theses wheels cost around $550/each new. tires are about the same but they sell for around $300/ea.
15x6.5 is good for 195, 15x7 is good for 205.
alot of people just slap on 205 on 6.5" rim and expect them to work but in reality all you are doing is adding weight by putting on a tire too wide for the rim, ruining the contact patch and flexing the side wall to fit a over size tire, this all ruins acceleration, braking and cornering.
these rims are not for just anybody. they are meant for serious enthusiast with competition in mind

I think the rim might rub a little, being 7" wide with +45 offset. That's just my guessing.
At any rate, they are very nice. If I were in the market of looking for rims, I would consider these.
Good luck

to say everyone on here is cheap is 100% wrong.
there is a bunch of people on this website that dish out lots of cash but i think that the people on this site are more cautious about sending money on somehting good than something hype...
i know for a fact that i am not cheap. i do try to get the best deal i can and sometimes i have to rethink because what i wanted was not sensible...
although there is alot of cheapo's...
im just pissed off by them...
