Strange kicks...

Happened to stumble on this thread when i was searching for some TSX pictues. (for a friend) Is it just me, or do those wheels remind you of something along the lines of a cheese grater, or drain cover? Those look so simmilar to something... just can't think of what...

follow link for the rest of the pics: http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1869315

Also, before people start complaining, THAT Honda= FTL!

i like that car. i like the direction he went with it- opposite of rice.
its tasteful, and probably fast (turbo...). i think the wheels suit it, however odd they may be.

ya know, there were old school Racing Beat alloys that were similar to those and I think for FBs and man theyre dope as all hell.

I like those wheels anyhow, theyre strong and light while giving brakes some needed airflow... form follows function!

Can anyone explain to me what the hell the purpose of drilling holes in the bumper of a honda is?

I've NEVER *EVER* seen any car other then a honda with this done. What gives?

Oh I like the **** beads hanging from the rear view...

its for weight reduction! Those wheels look similar to Ronal Turbo wheels. I was outbid on a set of these wheels a few years back. Theyre very popual amongst the VW crowd and can be seen on old sports cars like Panteras, Lamborghinis and other crazy cars.
