will post more pics once they are cleaned and on my car

 

damn nice wheels coming =)

 

Nice choice, those wheels look perfect on a TSX IMO.

You should put a couple coats of wax on them before you mount'em on the car.

 

Wax on your wheels??...hmmm maybe I should try that

 

It makes cleaning up brakedust in the future alot easier. I actually use Poorboys wheel sealant on my wheels but any wax will help.

There is also another product called "wheel wax"

So I really wasn't looking for wheels, but I found someone local selling these ridiculously cheap with tires. They are 18x7.5 with a +48 offset. I really wanted the Gram Lights 57S-Pro, but they run for about $2200 just for the rims, so those were completely out of the question right now. Anyways, I think these wheels look GREAT and am really happy with my purchase. I just need to drop the car a little more and add a lip kit and then I will TRULY be done modding. Here are some quick pics I took after I put them on. I will probably take better pics tomorrow after a good wash.















New License Plate LEDs. These are BRIGHT.

 

looking good.

g-games sidewinders?

 

Nice!!
I was gonna get the G-games sidewinders too...bad decided to go NINJA with my NBP haha...

defnitely get the lipkit...to cover up those huge Greddy EVO2 CANNONS!! haha..

good job!

and btw..where did u get the LEDS from?
which site?

 

sidewinders look great! they're similar to mugen NR in my opinion. speaking of g-games though, anyone ever seen these for sale?


they're g-games 77m

i don't care for the time-attack look on cgp much, but they've got a gunmetal finish as well

 

Thanks! They make my TL wheels look like now.
Thanks for the tip! I'm gonna give my car a good wash tomorrow(I get off tomorrow bc of veterans day ) so I'll try it out then.
Yup. So far I love them. The pics don't do them justice. I'll try and take better shots tomorrow. I also feel like they really make my car look empty without a lip kit.
Yeah I am definitely planning on getting a lip kit sometime next year. Can't justify spending all this money so fast. Besides, winter is coming up and I wouldn't want to get a brand new kit just to see it get hit by the salt and sand on the roads.

I got the LEDs from superbrightleds.com. They are mentioned in a recent post in the "Problems and Fixes" section. That is where I found out about them. They even light up the ground...that is how bright they are.
Thanks! Those rims look really good. They kinda remind me of Advans. I am not sure if gunmetal on CGP would blend in that great either. Silver is definitely the safest option for CGP.

 

PS does anyone know if i need to get an alignment since I am switching from 17s to 18s?

 

gunmetal goes great with cgp, i think
some pics of my car in this thread

 

Cleeeeean!!! Looks great

 

 

I stand corrected. the wedsports look like a perfect color match to CGP.

 

no worries. you've got some sweet wheels. if i was going for a more luxurious look rather than stealth, i think i'd get some sidewinders!

 

Very nice. I like those wheels.

 

Looks sick! I think your stance now is perfect and I wouldn't go any lower.

And yeah, didn't I see a post from you months ago stating something was your "last mod"? There is never a "last mod".

 

looks sweet, always liked those wheels.

 

those look great on the car. nice wheels.

 

Thanks! I will probably lower the back suspension after the winter just to see what it looks like. I think the front is perfect, but the back looks a little high for my taste. In fact, I think I'm gonna have to stick my TL wheels back on in a couple weeks in case weather starts to get bad .

I actually forgot what I said my "last mod" was. It might've been my intake. but yeah, it is definitely addicting. I have slowed down a lot though and my next mod probably won't be until next spring.

Thanks for all the comments guys.

 

Really clean and classy wheels, I like it a lot (as an owner of a set of Advan Kreuzer Xi's, you'd hope I would like these things). Silver multi-spoke really is the way to go on CGP. It just looks right.

 

You must post pics of your Advans. When I did my initial wheel search, those were actually on my list...until I checked the price tag. lol. but a lot of the wheels on my list were > $2000. I couldn't pass up this deal though so i am pretty happy with these too

 

I just took my Advans off for the winter, unfortunately. I miss them already, I had forgotten how weak the OEM tires are. I think I have some pics on my computer at home though, I'll try remember to post some later on.

Fun fact: I paid for Kreuzer X's and was sent Kreuzer Xi's which are actually more expensive. Joke's on Gruppe S, I guess!
