i will have more pics up soon. as for rubbing my rear rubs a little when i hit bigger bumps so ima have to negative camber it just a tad more. and as far as lowering the car its not possible unless i get coilovers cuz right now im on skunk2 springs only and im loving the ride soft and smooth.

Dump it more! :mwink: and go ctr front lip since you probably dont want to fuck up that airwalker. Nice nonetheless though.

yes rims make one of the biggest impact on how the whole car look as a whole man haha. and for me speed is not important. i drive like a granny anways so leaving my motor stock and having a reliable daily driver is perfectly fine for me. plus all the ca. laws is ftmfl!

haha thats cuz they are cheap! not everyone is baller status like u jerry! i had my share of expensive rims before so for me it aint that big of a deal. these rims only costed me 380 shipped for them brand new so it was a deal i could not pass up on trying. maybe in the future i can get some new rims but for now ima just roll with these.

do u mean the color of the rims or the color of the car? haha if its the color of the car then its the same as the newer nsx color IMOLA ORANGE but for the rims its hyper silver with a polish lip

as for now car stays the same height only cuz its only on skunk2 springs. i want maybe like a .5" more drop to make it sit more flush but will have to wait until i have money for coilovers.

naw man, i'm not saying they are cheap. the design looks cheap. maybe meshes would have looked better?
