I believe that the replica rims even though look the same, are made out of different alloy, making them softer and a bit heavier.

A set of replicas can be easily found on Ebay.

thats weird that you guys had trouble with them... i just called them up.... told them what i wanted.... and they arrived at my door.

Sorry to hear that

You are right about replicas they will not say honda on them, by law it cannot have that, they use original castings ( oem wheel ) with the tag removed. Its possible that they are a different material but im sure they will work just fine.

My NSX wheels look great!!! just waiting on my JDM Honda center caps
