Couple pictures for kingston-1 [XXR 553]

My buddy kingston-1 just got a new setup for the season.

I don't know if you guys remember a couple years ago, but I posted up a picture of his car at a mini meet.

Since then he got the following done:

+ Headlights modded
+ K-Sport Coilovers installed
+ Accord fogs installed
+ XXR 553
+ Sound system with iSimple

Here's how the new setup looks.

Grill is done with plasti-dip which is showing its age, and will be wrapped with vinyl soon.

it's amazing how this car turned out

when I met him back in 2013, it had black RDX wheels, batmobile diffuser overlays on the headlights and tail lights, and lowered on eibach prokit springs
oh and it had chrome pieces that were peeling off (door handle inlays, front lower grill bars)

Wow love the rims, the coilovers make for a nice stance. Dam it just looks wicked,

What rims and tires are those?

She's absolutely beautiful! Question though, what is the "+22" after the wheel size? is that a spacer designation? I have 18"s on my TL and I'm looking to get that exact stance and lowered that much as well. Do you know exactly how much it was lowered and if that was done with precise measurements or was it just by design of the coils?

I believe its sitting somewhere around the 24" from the ground to fender on each corner.
I can measure the next time we meet up to make sure.

The +22 is the offset.
Basically if you have stock wheels, they are +45 offset. Add a 20mm spacer and now they are +25 offset.

Cool, I appreciate the info. And the Accord fogs look really good, I'm definitely going to add them to my mod list!
