Because I don't have any decent quality ones and my car is so dirty it's laughable haha.

Fix this. ASAP.

From what I can tell though...things are looking awesome. I want to see what your polished faces/lips look like becuase that is the finish I am going with.

Dropped about 2.5"-2.8" all around (Like a whole inch higher than my sig pic). Can I fit 17x8 +35 w/ a 215/45/17 tire without rolling my fenders?

I think you can get away with just relocating the rear bumper tabs. But I would just do a roll anyway.

Haven't posted in a while,....but just dropped my rims and tires off at my friend's shop. Apparently he has one of those "touch-less" tire machines??!!?? Either way my rim protector broke, and I am waiting for a new one. The last piece of the puzzle showed up a couple days ago too...Lug nuts. I was about to try media balancing my setup has anyone tried that on a car???. It works well on trucks. Until it's proven to me I guess sticky weights. Anyways hopefully I get some time to get install this giant pile of stance that has been sitting on my shop floor.

Hey eeeman,

First you will need to relocate your bumper tabs [URL="http://www.6thgenaccord.com/forums/showthread.php?t=33919&highlight=bumper+tab]Bumper Tab Relocation[/URL]. Then you will need to roll your fenders smoothly where the lip of the fender is flush so that will get rid of any rubbing problems you may encounter. That is all the basic knowledge you'll need for better fitment for your wheels. Another thing you might want to invest in is a camber kit. They are surprisingly useful and help out a lot if you are trying to correct your camber back close to factory settings. You may not can get all the camber out with that wheel setup but will come close. Good luck mate.

Btw, here is a video showing how to roll your fenders if you need some help.
P.S. Use an authentic fender roller (ex. Eastwood, Powered By Max). Do not use a baseball bat for the sake of your fenders lol. :thumbsup:
