aaaah, but i can vouch for the s2k's being taking care of better than my own vehicle. w shall c

lito

an S2K is diff a nice upgrade. I'm in the same dilemma thinking about getting an S2K myself, but if I do I'm keeping my TSX. Good luck man!

godfather2

thanks, lito

my buddy derek (derka on acurazine) just text me to say my car is in the latest issue of super street magazine! it's not a full feature, but a pic that was submitted. i've yet to see it for myself, but if any of you get a copy of it, please scan and post

Audioserf

Congrats Vin. If I get a chance I'll pick up a copy today. I don't have a scanner so a camera phone picture is the best I'll be able to do, LOL.

godfather2

something is better than nothing ... i hope you can pull through

i'm stuck at work late today since i called in yesterday and have much to catch-up on

First off lemme say hi, i'm new. Gonna be getting my own TSX this summer.

I'm just curious about all these beautiful one's i've seen and their selection of rubber and wheel. I've read the whole post on 'recommended' sizes, but i'm curious to what other members use.

My question is what rubber size/width do you use along with the rim size (ie 18 x 8.5) and offset. Also are your fenders rolled/trimmed or anything like that.



Kudos to the kumho's I have them on my toyota matrix atm and am loving them.

is that a carbon fiber hood?

82SADAT

does anyone have a good tints person in nyc

godfather2

i wish

i'm actually running 18x8" with 48mm offset at all 4 corners. the ride is dropped about an inch and i'm running 225-20-18 sized tires. my fenders aren't rolled and i've never come close to scraping/rubbing. 8.5" wide wheels/tires can be done with correct offset, but the amount of drop won't be too significant unless you roll fenders.

best of luck in your endeavors,
vin

Thank you for the reply, you sure it's 225/20/18 and not 225/40/18? I didn't even think kumho's came in that size. I was thinking off getting some yoko's or potenza's w/o sacrificing to much acceleration for looks.

What body kit you running? the A-spec. Plus i'm guessing those rotora's are 1-piece amiright lol



So many questions, but I got that pre-buying itch and daydreaming lol. Moving from a crossover to a luxury is a big step.

godfather2

^ whoops, you're correct. it was a type that should read 225-40-18.

i have the oem lip kit with mugen air spoiler

it is, in fact, the rotora 1 pic bbk

hope that helps

DepthC0RE

Nice, thanks man

godfather2

seems as if the tsx may just have a new home

new owner plans to part out the vehicle so stay tuned

i'll keep you all posted

lol @ the gf comment.

how funny would it have been if you submitted the same pic but with the photoshopped mountain in the background instead and it got printed? haha.

mmade22

Vinny that is great on the photo but I am sad if the car is gone and parted out! Keep us updated man.

godfather2

buyer backed out of the deal for the 2nd time, jon. i'm upset because i jumped through hoops to make it happen for a very special s/c s2000. oh well, i'd rather start from scratch anyways. how's my lil man alex?

DepthC0RE

any links to where you bought your body kit?

godfather2

no link but i bought from acura of escondido ebay store. it was like $950 painted and shipped

mmade22

Alex is great man, thanks for asking. Why are they backing out?

godfather2

various reasons for backing out: illness, financing, spouse opposition, uncertainty

lil_oldschool

sweet lookin car.. the look i want for my nbp 04 tsx.. all i need is the fogs and the side and rear a spec lip kit... anyone selling any? i already got the front.

godfather2
