CL Dayton: 14x7 Honda "Turbo Fan" wheels

Not mine, no affiliation, but they sure look cool and might be what somebody is looking for.

CL ad says: Very rare Honda turbo fan (similar to some Corvette rims) alloy rims in a 4x100 bolt pattern. They are Directional wheels, meaning there are two left wheels (marked L) and two right wheels (marked R); this actually sucks air over the brake rotor like a fan, keeping the brakes cooler. Fits 4 bolt civics, some VW and BMW (you may need spacers to correct offset issues if used with non-Honda vehicles; it is YOUR responsibility to check for fitment or get spacers before purchase). I had these on a BMW e30, with 15mm spacers and they worked great. No vibration issues, a little curb rash, but no dents or bends. Repainted silver (as close to original as I could) with Duplicolor "High Performance Wheel Paint". no center caps (you can buy them at the Honda dealer). Due to work, it is best if you text me at 937.626.6283. If you call and I cannot answer, leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

I could pursue these and hold them if somebody is really interested.

I got some close up pictures from the seller. The wheels aren't 14x7, they're 14x5.5 with 45mm offset

Does anybody know what these came on? I can't find any info on them but I'm no honduh expert.

They look like they might be 88-89 Accord LX-i wheels, in which case, they would not be rare.

Yep, I just found some on E-bay.

Without the center caps they look sorta like some old racing wheels.

Oh well, nothing too special to see here...

I'm pretty sure they won't fit Civics either.

Bolt pattern is too large for civics and CRX's

What's the center bore? These, painted bright orange, would look mighty cool on my Swift.

I sold a set of those for $25 with good tires. Those are about as rare as trash at the city dump.

they DID make those in 4x100, i have one sitting around.

i believe it was a dealer optional civic wheel. a similar one was sold in 4x114.3 on accords, but the ones in the CL add arent those.

they might have also came in the late 80's 4x100 accords. yes, old accords were 4x100.

Oddly I think I saw a set on a VW Golf this morning.
