I like how all of you bitching about the height don't live in Jersey Try riding low around here and you'll lose your front bumper in a week. I'm on Comptech silvers and scrape getting out of my driveway if I'm not careful.

Car looks good bro

You wanna talk about driveways? I'll show you a picture of mine, and I get out just fine, and I'm like a few centimeters higher than Htown.

Seems a bit heated in this thread but oh well...

Car looks good man. I'm not a big fan of the wheels either but IMO, if you like them, that's all that matters. Keep up the good work, man.

To be honest with all of you.. I really didnt like the wheels at first either.. but I really wanted to stay with the "JDM" look so I got them and to tell ya the truth they really do look much better in person.

I obviously know that... but the whole "honda/acura" is based on Japaniese car manufactures... you don't tell people that your car is an American Muscle car now do you?

why did you want 'custom' center caps as opposed to the original advan ones? esp. ones that say "a-c-u-r-a" on them.

for the price you paid, wouldn't you want ppl to know that your wheels were 'authentic' as opposed to all the knockoffs out there?

iono, just seems like a waste to me that you would put 'custom' center caps on wheels that don't deserve them.

im not refering to our cars as american muscle, but its just that usually when someone is going "jdm" they have a look they are going after from a particular car that is made in japan....like the dc2 for instance...just dont see the point of going JDM on something that doesnt have a japan based model.

do what you wish tho. i would also have to concur with the others saying you should run the advan centers. those wheels need those caps IMO cause there are sooo many cheap knockoffs out there designed after those...how do we know yours arent some of them? lol im jk

Advan wheels don't mean you have a JDM style car mang.

Given the circumstances, we all know there's no true JDM market for our cars. However, it seems as if there are components of your car you could've chose to have the "JDM look" with but didn't. If you wanted to have the "JDM look" why didn't you purchase a Cusco Strut Bar? or a Fujitsubo Exhaust? or even Tein/Zeal CO's?

I'm not tryin to hate, cuz ultimately, I think it's a good lookin' ride. You have ur own style and to each their own. But it's definately farrr from "JDM".
