nice, nice I like it, very clean

Btw, how did you relocated your bumper screw and the bumper is still holding tight? I need to do that to mine too.

very clean and simple. the rims are a good size and all, but i think u can pull off something a lil less sporty and more vip and STILL get away w/ it.

i know whose car those rims look good in... (MINE)

lets trade rims...

uhhhh, no. these will be my last set of wheels period. if they fit on my next car, they'll go on there too... i love these wheels too much.

I was waiting for you to post these on here dude, I saw them on V6P last night but was too tired to comment.

I think it looks great! Not really sure how much room you have to work with that setup to lower it any more, but if you can it would be sweet.

You also reminded me I need to get some spacers, I'm planning on rolling my fenders so I can go a tad lower.

You haz side profile pic as well? :naughty:

no side profile just yet, had to go to cousins house to borrow his camera to take these quick pics... proper photoshoot with larry, sky99, slowaccord and moneypit coming next month... gonna be the sickest photoshoot to hit this site ever!

<3

i love how the whole accord scene is moving towards some serious stuff! Crazy swaps, turbos, S/C, sick wheels and insane stance!

Proving the masses wrong one nut job at a time! :thumbsup:

thanks :D

:thumbsup: Great wheel choice! Looks great man.
thanks

question, do your springs bind a lot? I raised my car up a bit because when I was lower I heard my springs bind & pop all the time and it drove me nuts

not quite sure what you mean by binding.

this makes me want to keep my car and show u fools what i am capable of

do it!

cleannnnn
thanks

nice, nice I like it, very clean

Btw, how did you relocated your bumper screw and the bumper is still holding tight? I need to do that to mine too.

i wish i took a before pic to show you the difference but if you look at your rear bumper screw area and compare it to mine... you'll see how much crap i cut out. the tab where the screw is located in an OEM setup is about 2 inchs long and the screw is near the front. i simply drilled a new hole about as far back on the same tab as i could and put the screw back there and yes it holds tight as long as you dont drill the hole too big, i drill the hole small so that when i treaded the screw back in, it had something to grab onto. after i relocated it, i cut and grinded away all the material that used to be where the screw was in the first place.

very clean and simple. the rims are a good size and all, but i think u can pull off something a lil less sporty and more vip and STILL get away w/ it.

not too sure how i feel about VIP style coupes. i personally think VIP looks should stay with sedans and sportiness with coupes.

makes me wanna go with a 225 up front now. Im at 17x9 +29 with a 215.45 nankang and doenst sit quite as flush in the front. The rear sits about the same as yours... but maybe that's because i have -2.5 Front and -3.3 Rear... hehe

Of course he can go lower if he wants to run more camber.. hehe

it's kind of like a clunking noise, happens sometimes because with the perches dropped too much the springs aren't always seated so if you turn or go over a bump there can be a clunk when they pop back into place

Yeah when you slam teins that's what happens... MikeyMike bought some tein helper springs which help with this problem. They make the spring longer so it wont clunk
