so you drove to the honda dealership in the middle of the night to take a pic with it with your car? ahhaha man that's just funny =p I guess the whole notion of you not being able to sleep and instead going out to random places to take pics with your car is a bit funny =p.

On another note, the car does look good !

you know.... the red Honda badges and the red from the base JDM tail lights might actually go nice with your rims.

hehe, ya you need a tripod for your late night shoots.

It looks like you on a 50 profile but could be wrong as your gap seems close to mine as im 195-50-16. Looks clean and simple, red is a tough colour, its a love hate thing

185/55/16 tires and the wheels dont even come close to rubbing with the offset. i have always wondered why people on here are so afraid of offset wheels lol. i have df210's and i still feel like im riding in a monster truck. lmfao. i had these exact wheels on my 2000 civic hatch and that thing was dumped. i cant wait to get a set of full coil overs for the fit so i can dump this too.

Thats how he pulled it off, oem tires.

Its funny that even me with a wheels that is 6.5" wide, 195-50-16 and df springs will get a slight rub (only on the plastic inner lining) when I hit a big dip anytime on a straight. I havent givin it enough in turns yet to see :P


And yeah, All my cars are dumped so the df's are great forsure but once a nice set of coils come out, it will be a nice re swap

I'm not talking about rubbing though, i am talking about not sticking out from the fenders a half inch, when i tried my budds 17x7 +40 drag CE28 replicas, the wheels stuck out about half an inch past the fenders?

his 17's probably weren't running 185 tires =p I'm assuming they'd be at least 205-215, which make a huge difference too!
