did u have to wait long for u to get those rims? i heard volk ships out products only a few times per year resulting in long wait times.
i'm looking into 18" GT-N's Silver Polish
sweet ride, love the color!

As I heard, the distributor get massive shippment like twice of 3 times a year.
anywayz... usually those wheels that are hot (TE37), they have stock. If the distributor has the right size in stock, they will get to you in about a week. If they don't have what you are looking for in stock, it is gonna be special order. Takes usually 1 month to 2 months. Mine took 6 weeks to get to me. Not a very horrible wait.

I feel the same way about body kits; some bulky plastic around the bottom of a car doesn't do anything for me. Cars have wheel gaps for a reason. I drag my bumper at least once a week, and my ride height is stock. My boss has a lowered A4 and can't enter half a dozen parking lots in town because it would rip his bumper off. Do what YOU want to your car, and don't let people tell you what you 'have' to do to make it acceptable to the tuner crowd or whatever.
The rims look good.

For TSX, I think the suspension is good enough, and the ride height is good to me. So, I don't think I will lower the car. And yes, I kinda agree with you on the Empire's new clothes theory.

Sazabi,
I was wondering if you bought your front lip spoiler by itself or did you buy the whole kit and just put on the front? If you bought it seperately, can you tell me where you got it? I am looking just for the front lip too......Thanks!!

If so, show the pic so we can compare and contrast! (or are they the same rims?)
