While surfing the web I found some pictures of some Rebarreled Mugen CF-48 wheels and thought what a great look they had when rebarreled. Then I saw these shots of the same wheels at the KDAY Season 2 car show taken by Shota Mori for Stickydiljoe.com. – Rebarreled Mugen CF-48 on JDM DA Acura Integra

This is the Money Shot, the Mugen CF-48 Road wheel rebarreled on a 15″ rim; I think it looks so much better!

This DA Acura Integra is dropped nicely on a set of classic Racing Hart Type-C Wheels. The Racing Hart Type-C’s were released around the same time as the DA Integra, so the wheeels and this car are a good period correct match and looks really good together as well. – Racing Hart Type-C Acura IntegraThe Racing Hart Type-C is a classic JDM wheel, if you had these in the 90’s you were a Baller! These ones are complete down to the pins on the Center Caps and feature the optional anodized red hex caps. These wheels actually have a lot of parts and are hard to keep all together; the “Type-C” logo is actually transparent plastic painted logo in front of a carbon fiber disk. – Racing Hart Type-C Acura IntegraThe front of this Integra features the newer 92-93 style front bumper with a Carbon Fiber JDP front lip, and JDM one piece headlights with custom black housings. – Racing Hart Type-C Acura IntegraLS-Vtec Turbo matches performance to the looks of this Integra. – Racing Hart Type-C Acura IntegraRacing Hart Type-C Acura Integra

The SSR EX-C Mesh is pretty rare wheel consisting of many hard to find parts; therefore it is not a wheel people like to roll on everyday. – SSR EX-C Mesh on DC Acura IntegraThis set of SSR EX-C Mesh looks to be missing the original resin logo on the hex nut, but it still looks very nice. I believe these wheels are 15 inch in diameter. – SSR EX-C Mesh on DC Acura IntegraSide view of the Integra, these wheels are a true classic! Ride height on the Integra is on key. – SSR EX-C Mesh on DC Acura Integra
