Default Civic rims

I'm in the process of making a 4 door sleeper but I didnt want to leave the 1999 stock hubcaps on.
Does anyone know a good site I can find some 14" 4 lug rims for the 1999 honda civic DX 4 door sedan?
I've tried ebay and amazon and just random google searches but I haven't found anything. I'm gonna try going up to some rim shops in town soon, but I was wondering if anyone knew any good sites.

Have you looked at Tire Rack or Discount Tire? They usually have a great selection of size, weight, offset, etc. and at pretty good prices. If you're looking into doing something like the old Mugen or Spoon wheels, you might also want to look into Rota Wheels, too. Another great place to find quality, light wheels (albeit in a 15" size) is 949 Racing. They mostly make them for Miatas, but they're 6UL wheels will fit Hondas, too.

The key to getting a new wheel is to keep the weight light which, for a 14" wheel, should be something like 13lbs or less. You'll be amazed how much different the car will feel on light wheels versus the heavy steel wheels you have on there now. You may want to consider moving up to a 15" size, however, as this will open up a lot more tire choices for you.
