yea those are battle exe rims... i was pretty skeptical ordering them, but so far they are holding up nice.

where i live there are quite a bit of cracked roads and pot holes (nothing major) and i've driven over them accidently many times going about 45 mph, and its pretty solid. i've also driven them on the interstate for 100 miles and they were prefectly fine.

plus they come in +48 offset

Looking great Vi!




BTW, we offer the Ingalls camber kits as well. It is generally the preferred choice!

from your pics, it seems as if you have no "noticeable" negavtive camber on your rear wheels. is it because of your aftermarket wheels?

nice car btw, NHB FTW!

yea i notices that too, its like that when you look at it "in person" as well... its dropped about 1.75-2 inches, i was expecting a lot more camber.

but my only guess is because it's a high offset wheel (+48) ??? not to sure, im sure i could be wrong though.

oh sorry, missed your message.. it feels a bit slower, nothing major

but before i even put the wheels and coilovers on, i have been driving a BMW 330ci for 5 months because my sister had my TSX... so could just be the change of cars. only been driving it a few days stock before putting everything on.

i think the weight is 20lb's, not sure might want to double check.

Glassjaw those are nice wheels you have there. I have the same ones only mine are metallic not black. Also I have just recently installed a Tein Basic kit from Mr. Heeltoe.
