aye tim, did you ever get tires mounted on those [5 lug] ITR wheels you have (or maybe had)?

anyways, im diggin the new stance and the ALL CLEAR front end!

Sup fool, long time no see....you comin out to the D1GP US vs. Japan event in December? Come by and kick it, I got a special invite only show pass to show my car there.....let me know if you're goin....car looks good. Peace.

k-mart: they are still in the friggin box with no tires! getting kinda lazy trying to set that up. i wanted to fix my camber before i put new tires but i feel i've done all that can be done. maybe next year i'll have tires on them. i really like the volks right now. thanks for the complements esp on the all clear. the sidemarkers are going to get that treatment soon. i'll post pics.

StickyDilJoe: hmm when is the show? i might be down to roll but not to show my car. my car is not nearly as clean and hooked up as yours so i won't be showin her off too often. i'll be put to shame by just your having an h22 swap let alone clean paint, bride seats, etc you get the picture. i'll be following close though .

car's lookin' good. things have been a bit busy at work, thus i haven't been able to get out to a t.a.b. tuesday in quite some time. hopefully i'll make it out soon.

btw, i've added your pics (w my own added text) to the lower offset wheel thread.

keep up the good work.

Yeah, +26 sounds a little too sketchy for my tastes...I wouldn't go lower than +30 but you got the fenders cut and everything so it should work out fine.... Anyways, the show is on the 17th of December. See you there if you come out....

update!

another small addition in the pursuit of originality: JDM OEM prelude BB6/civic EK clear sidemarkers. these clear lights had a limited run and are similar to the JDM S2000 AP1s as well as a select few civic EGs and integ DCs. i believe even some EDM accords came with them stock as well (UK - Accord please confirm).

here is a pic. i need to get amber bulbs before i install em. please note that these are a bit LONGER than the stock CB sidemarkers. you will need to lengthen the hole to install it.

nah man i'm feelin your current wheels now. the gold with polished lips look hot! i don't like the way 15" looks on our cars. they look too small. even 16" sometimes looks small. i miss my 17". if they made 16.5" i'd be all over it. thanks for the kind words !

[Inkyturbo]

Wow your car in those first pics was awesome! It prove you don't need huge wheels to make your car look good! Check out my car.

[excalibur02]

ah i wish i had someone near me that had extra 5 lug rims or even selling them! and i am feeling you on the 16.5 rims lol.. i think 17s are kinda to big and 16s are sometimes to small...oh well at least i know what rims look good from your pictures hehe
