Dont worry, my car spent the first few years of its life in Jersey with the snow and all and my backs were easy to get out (make sure to spray with penetrating oil the night before just in case) it was the fronts that were a pain. I brought it to a local gas station and they broke the fronts loose and didnt charge me a dime good luck and look for my how to it may help some

Yeah, i did the install with ^^ Pat's ^^ instructions. Either him or myself can help you out. Fun little project, but let those bolts marinate in as much penetrating oil as possible. I like the rims, what kind are they?

They're 17" HP Racing Evos.

Yeah I plan on spraying all of the bolts tonight to let them sit overnight. I'm also renting a hydraulic spring compressor that I can hook up to my air compressor, which should save some time.

I got some rattling in the rear also that I have to fix so hopefully when I start working on it, i can figure out where the noise is coming from.

Thanks for the positve comments.

Good luck with your weekend project.

Those rims are real nice, did they come with a center cap or are you going to stick an Acura cap in there?

They did come with an HP Racing centercap, but you just gave me a good idea. :thinking: I think I will try to put an Acurac cap on. Thanks for the input.
