HX styled rim suggestions

[HeX]

I have a '97 Civic HX currently running on SI rims. I like the style of oem HX rim but prefer a larger size. Please post any other rims you may know of that look identical to the 8 spoke HX style but in 15" or 16". The 15" Weds Sport TC-05 rims pictured below is the closest Ive come across so far.

These are the stock 14" HX rims...

These are 15" Weds Sport TC-05 rims. Theyre discontinued, cost over $1000 a set, and are hard to find.

If anyone has something close, by all means let me know. I would like to maintain a somewhat original HX appearance with my slight tweaks. The only other rims I'd consider are the Drag DR-16 / Rota GT3 styled rims.

enkei has something similar...but why not just save up and get some weds...i think they are the best HX look-alikes

If the Weds are the best options, then I'll go that route. Keep in mind the purpose of this thread is to find if there are other options being that I'm not aware of any.

As for those Enkei rims, Theyre not really close enough. Notice in the HX style, each spoke is wider as it approaches the center hub area. I appreciate the suggestion though.

15" konig helium?

or buddy club P1 SF maybe?

Rota GT3s. If you're not trying to buy expensive wheels.

But real wheels are WAYYYY cooler

If you are willing to do a 4x114.3 swap, then you can run the ITR wheels.

That's probably the closest to OEM HX style wheels that you're going to get right there.

If you're going to go out of your way for a bigger size, why bother with the HX wheel style?

ITR wheels +1

Perhaps you didnt read the original post stating that I purposely want a larger rims of similar style of the original HX rim since my car is an HX. Im not sure what else you intended to imply or question.

I really like the ITR rims. Thanks for the suggestion. I found some for sale on eBay that are actually 4x100. The seller confirmed they will fit. I may throw an offer.

Thanks for the link info. As that link stated, those arent ITR's. Theyre somewhat similar. But who knows? This may be the same guy.

I just read carefully through the listing and they are ITR replicas, but apparently theyre JWL & VIA certified for safety. The wording sounds a bit disconcerting though.
