19" ce28 will be available in 2026. and the color you likely saw was Shining Bronze Metallic. Suuuuuuch a good looking color option.

Please tell me this isnt a dream. I wanted the CE28's for my car so bad, but I much prefer the look of 19's. Is there a press release or anything?!

Google will tell you everything you want to know.

-19x9.5 +45 (Titan7 T-S5 Wicked Black)
-OEM Michelin PS4S’ (265/35/19)
-RS-R Best-i Adaptive Coilovers
-EVS Lower Front Camber Joints
-Whiteline Upper Rear Camber Arms

Previously had the H&R Sport Springs, but to me they were a little too bouncy on harsh SoCal roads; decided to upgrade to the RS-R coilovers based upon reviews and they are definitely worth the investment!

Although the RS-R’s have way more adjustability to go lower, I’m happy with this height for daily driving, and to haul the family around. Comfortability is the same as stock if not better; can easily handle rough bumps and dips without any concern (dampers are 36-way adjustable for stiffness/softness).

Overall, I am super satisfied with this current set-up and the fitment is really flush against the fenders.

Car looks fantastic.

I'm waiting for someone to pair a DSC controller with the RSR adaptive coils.

See? This is how to "be different" with wheel choice in a creative and still dope way. This car looks fantastic.

(context: some dude on the civic forums trying to figure out if he could slap a set of wheels off a BMW X5 on his FL5 because "it's not what everyone else is doing")

That said, one question- did you just install the H&Rs very recently? Springs take a bit of time to "settle"... couple weeks to my experience. Reason for asking is some pictures I see the H&Rs in I can't really tell the difference in drop vs Eibach or Spoon, but this one does seem a bit elevated in comparison. Still looks great, and that's kind of the ethos behind going with H&R... but @Tw1stedlog1k I'm gonna lean on you again because I'm pretty sure this ties back to a recent discussion around tire size and I recall you had H&Rs and your car looked at least as low as mine on Eibachs...

Thanks! This is exactly what i was shooting for. The Work were kind of an impulse buy, i really didnt want to keep breaking beads on tires every season, so here we are.. yes, I had them installed on the same visit i had the snows swapped over earlier this week.

I was looking at the zr10 2p but i saw a dude on insta that had the exact setup and i wanted something different(or a 6 month wait).

Ive only ever seen these on Subarus and Nissans, figured i could sell them if i dont like them but i think it turned out pretty good.

if anyone in the chicago area is looking for a good shop i highly recommend Drivers Gallery in Valpo. They really went out of their way for me.

I've always loved Work wheels and I'm glad to see someone tried them on these cars!

As mentioned, I'm also on H&R and was on stock tires prior to switching to 275/30. The height in your pictures does look a *little* high but I'm thinking it's just the reference angle and lighting.

Last picture is just factory wheels and tires but with 20mm spacers (still lowered).

Just installed these recently. Love how the suspension feels

What wheels are these? They look awesome!

Thanks!

Yea freshly installed, missed an opportunity this morning to grab a pic on and empty brick road from about 30' away. I am by no means a photog, I will try to grab more pic's from a different angle and a little more distance.

Thank you! These wheels but in brushed grey. They've since undergone another color transformation; Hyper Black. I actually just put them back on for summer this is how it sits currently.

Excuse the pictures, it's amateur hour in my driveway.

EDIT: It would help if I actually included pictures:
