I think I remember seeing you and your crew at NOPI in Ennis a couple months back, but you had your gold rims on. And my friend was confused because you had a Honda Badge. I think this was her exact quote..."wait, sooo, am I crazy or does he have a Honda thingy where the Acura thingy should go. Because that is not a honda."

Acura is made by Honda; The Honda Accord overseas is sold here as the Acura TSX.

Wow, either you must rub like crazy in the front with that offset and ride height, or you're running some serious negative camber...

Have to agree with a few of the sentiments above - I preferred the gold. Still, looking very sweet.

that's not negative camber that would allow that! what did you do?! my wheels have a 40mm offset and it rubbed after every bump before i raised it about 1/4 inch from the Tein recommended settings on the Basics.

for the show, i lowered it an inch from what normally drive on which is slightly tucking tires at about 2.5 in drop. any lower than 2.5 i will rub and will have problems turning
