Default where to buy R278s?
Where can I buy some ruff racing 278s? I know they have been discontinued but someone has to have them... so I'm open to used or new. Must be a set (4). Perferably 18", but ill cope with 17s and 19s. Anyone know?

haha nah i told him i would do it, mine probably arent in the condition youd like. they probably need a new powdercoat to look really nice, there is one with about 2" of slight curb rash and on that has the slight slice in it, and the lip is plastidipped black haha

I've been looking all over Craigslist and I've only found ones for mustangs of civics... And they are selling them for cheap! Like 400 bucks with tires

I love mine! I'm gonna get them powdercoated this winter though. I would say good luck finding a full set. Picked mine up with tires for $950 last year.

Stock height. I'm on ground fx, so can't go lower. Lol. Are you running 18" rims or the 19"s?
