Guess what I got for free?

Well today I got koni sport shocks and Eibach pro kit springs for free. Yea dont be jealous. My job wanted to get rid of them cuz they were taking up space and since I'm the only one there who drives a TSX, they handed them to me. Anyone got pics of this setup? I search but did not find anything. I wanna see what it looks like before I install. Thanks guys.

There are posts all over the place in the "tires, wheels, suspension forum". There is even a gallery of various suspension setups that is a sticky. If theyre not what you are looking for as far as a drop, and they are still new and in original boxes, name an asking price.

Why would I lie about getting free parts? I work for an acura dealer here in New York and someone traded in a TSX for a TL and left everything in their car. We removed them and waited to him/her to return to pick them up, they never did. Bossman asked me if I wanted them.... Do I sense a lil jealousy? That's just my

Skepticism doesn't necessarily mean jealousy, but congrats anyway.

Looks awesome; what size tires are you running?

And where did you get the wheels from?

Thanks, I dont remember the exact dimension of the tire, all I know is it's a 17" and the rims are from my brothers RSX. They are the JDM type R rims. Got those for free too. Gave them to me cuz he totalled his RSX type S and got a G35 coupe 6mt.

That's what I thought; they are very very close in design to the Euro R wheel, but slightly different......

You got all the hook ups ...........

Nice drop, looks perfect......u gotta find out what tire size you are running, that looks good too and the rims!!

I'm guessing either 225/45 or 215/45 tires (which might be to small) but it sure looks sweet!
