were you looking at eibachs or a car with BC coilovers on it?

Eibachs don't really make it that low. just low enough. even for snow, I'd think.

but to each their own.. just thought id mention you may have been looking at a more extreme set up.

BigHatch - "Hondata Reflash, ATLP Exhaust, ETS Intercooler, K&N Typhoon"


do you just have the reflash or flashpro? I thought with all that it wouldn't be a good idea.


I have the ETS intercooler, ATLP Exhaust and getting a CPE intake, looking for my next flash mod

just reflash right now.. I believe CPE changes pip diameter to lean it out more.

needs more size... 19's would be perfect for that car, plus an offset that gives you some concaveness.

if I paid retail price for the rims I would have gone bigger, but to be able to use stock tires and the price I paid for rims not bad lowering springs on the way from heeltoe. also have sport bars so should help the look

yuck.

you do realize that started in Germany from TUV regs detailing required inner fender clearance. rules existed for tires, but not wheels, so people wanted to go wide anyways, and their quick solution was either seriously bad camber, or stretching wheels on stupidly sized rims, or both.

Dangerous...asking the tire to perform in a way it was never intended, and most likely under severe driving load if you claim to be a performance enthusiast.

to put it another way...its no different than the trend of sagging your pants in the hood, and long before that flooding your pants.. both "styles" resulting from being broke ass kids with pants that you've gotten too tall for....solution flood till everyones doin it, then sag to stand out.

good luck to you if "stance" is your thing. negative performance all the way around.

sorry haven't been on for awhile. I jumped over there lots of new stuff Looks like I will be taking off the CPE intake,doing flashpro and leaving the K&N drop-in instead. it is way too loud for her when accelerating.


side question - Do you think 245/45/18 for snow tires will be okay? Came up on a deal I couldn't pass up on brand new tires.


here is some quick pics I took after the install a month ago.
