2023 Civic Type R Parked up in Championship White (California)

If you must, then you must, but generally I agree that wheel spacers should be avoided. Wheels with proper offsets and alignment under a dialed in suspension is the way to go.

Am I the only one that thinks this is one of the nicest OEM wheels ever!?! At least Honda has never offered a nicer one that’s for sure.

Almost looks like there's a slight pearlescent sheen on the wheels. Could just be bad reflection.

Or a good one

Looks similar to the M3 CS wheel, which I thought was one of the best looking.

Split-5s are everywhere these days, and for good reason: it's a nice design that seems to suit everything.

It’s the best wheel ever made I put them on almost every car I own even my old 1991 GTI

Ehh... Played out for years now. Those 3 piece RPF'1's that enkei is releasing in a few months would look amazing on the CTR..

I love the RPF1, couldn't imaging putting on 800+ per wheel for multipiece forged ones. Think I'd go classic bronze TE37 if i splurged on a champ white car.

Rather spend 800 a piece for forged 3 piece wheels than 700 a piece for forged monoblock wheels. You can easily replace/repair a lip on a 3 piece wheel alot cheaper than having to replace a full monoblock wheel.
Plus the fact that the 3 piece RPF1's will stand out much more than a played out TE37 is just an added bonus.

All the while I'm looking at Enkei TS-5s or TS-6s. Am I a pleb?

Not alone at all, hands down one of the best looking. Nixing the red stripe along the lip was the right choice for this design.

Why yes, yes you are

No thanks, rpf1’s are a cool cheap auto X wheel, but I’d never spend big money on an Enkei. The one piece look better, the 3 piece look like some Vossen crap for a 240 or something rwd lol

I’ve hated the red stripe look since it came on the scene. Especially through the aftermarket.

LMAO, you thinking the cast 1 piece RPF1's look better than the new forged 3 piece RPF1's perfectly explains why you think TE's are still relevant.
