HUGE Wheel Lips

I'm looking into getting a TSX and was hoping that someone could post up pics of stock body with large lips on their wheels. Prefer non-step lips.

What's the largest lips you've seen on the wheels of a TSX? thanks!

Nobody really has "huge" lips on TSX wheels because our offset requirements more or less prohibit it. You see massive lips on wheels that can run like a +15 offset or something insane like that.

That said, I'm sure someone in here will post a picture of a TSX that proves me wrong and makes me look like a jackass.

Well, bring it!

This aint RWD cars so if you are looking for big lips wheels for tsx then you are looking at a wrong car.

Not all RWD drives can take "big lips". The S2000 can't pull it off unless you do something with the fenders and neg. camber.

I'm familiar with the car and the standard offsets. I'm a Honda guy (Am on my 3rd S2000) and understand that you can't get 6" lips on the car...that's not what I'm looking for.

I'm looking for pics of at least a 2"+ lip.

Thanks,

Ryan

Thanks. I saw that and also searched for TSXinHI's TSX. I think I may be adding a TSX to the garage within the next couple of months, if not sooner.

I was looking at an 04 with only 23k miles.

Auto
Fully Loaded with Nav, heated seats, etc.

At the stealership, so would have to pay taxes, but can get it for me for $18700 plus tax and fees or $20645.74 out the door. I was thinking about offering them $20k OTD.

Any thoughts?

step lip is a lip that has a step instead of just being flat

see how the lip takes a step up...


compared to these which are just flat...
