Fireball

Hey Mr Big, nice rims where did you get them???

TLCL

sweet. .ever thought of taking the mudguards off?

mr. big

americas tire co....and yea, maybe ill take em off and see what they look like...just afraid of all the shit splashing on the car if i dont have em on

john61878

the car is hot how much did u pay for the rims if you dontmind me askin

mr. big

$325 a wheel

john61878

thats without tires right what was it inthe end

mr. big

im not sure, since i dont have the reciept with me now, but i think it was around 2200 or so...tires cost me about $175 a piece (yokohama AVS SPORTS)

CLŽ

i took mines off and the mudguards don't do shit. everyone keeps telling me to take them off, and i scratch them constantly anways, heh. i have a black cl too and didn't like the fact they weren't painted. .anways it was just a suggestion maybe you'll like it.

chikai

Damn...that lip is f-ing deep. Thanks for the day time pics.

Chaptorial

Damn that looks good. Reeeeeeeeal good!

Do you know the weight of those rims compared to stock 03's rims??

Rod

Much better pics...sweet ride!

Krisqo

that ride is HOT. I want those rims soooo bad. I was a black prelude last night with the exact rims. Does the place you got them have a website? I'd like to get them in a smaller size.
NICE RIDE and GREAT PICS.

Hey Mr. Big .. with your rims and drop .. HOws your ride? bumpy? smooth? etc.... Thanks.. OH yea.. you have the nicest CL I've seen so far . IMO.

JakeCL

looks good but what happened to your clear corners?
do you know if they make those in chrome?

moomaster_99

Nice drop...

I like the deep lip look of those rims.....I must admit...Im not really fond of those wheels...but they do look good on your car...must be the black...

danny25

gotta love that lip! Nice!

Ahmad310

Mr. Big - looks good, i gotta get more of a drop, i love the way they look on the car,but after seeing the pics of your car w/ that drop vs just going to the garage and seein the same thing w/ comptech springs makes me want that drop so bad!!! I wish i had the weather you had too, its snowing here and i cant wait to make my car look like that again.

mr. big

see, i originally had CT, and befoire the wheels were on, i KNEW, it would not be low enuf for 19's that is...so i went with TEIN, get them, trust me, youll like it....rides and handles better too

mr. big

thanks for the compliments guys!! i worked and stressed real hard

mr. big

I went to my local AMERICA's TIRE Co. just call them and ask em to look for the wheel u want...some pple there are real nice and help u out, while others are bitches

mr. big

Well, i live in LA during the week and Yorba linda on the weekend, so since the roads in La suck, the ride a a little harsher...Ever since i dropped the car with CT, the ride was harsher, but with 19s, it wasnt so much more worse....Esp since i have TEINs and the shocks are a better match for the drop, so i think, its actually pretty damn smooth....When im back on the weekends, where the roads are newers, the ride feels almost like stock, couldnt even tell there were 19's....

Plus TODAY, i just put on my sways, so the damn thing corners even better than with just 19s....with 19s, i felt a big difference in handling, but the sways made it much better....hope that helps! =)

LiLMaN

Sweet... Im saving for the damn tiens... but hey I noticed you have a bmw I think.. which car do you like better... overall?

mr. big

yea, i got a 330ci....overall, i really like both cars....Stock for stock, i would say the 330 is tighter and more responsive...but now that i got coils and wheels and sways, i really like the CL...Its basically a tradeoff...some things in BMW u just cant beat (RWD, handling, etc.), and there are some things in Acura(acceleration, std options, comfort, smoothness), that i feel are better...Its hard to get both in one car, so i decided to just get both...

lou_RENAMED

Mr Big I like your style




but then again Im kinda biast

mr. big

nice...lookin good, ever thought about gettin a tint? i think it would complete the look

mattg

your car looks tight, big.

mr. big

thanks mattg

CL Hype

mr. big...wow, thats one of the nicest looking CL's I have ever seen..I have the same 2k3 black and damn I wish i had some money to add rims and get that drop. Thanks for the inspiration though. Nice LIP!..btw, i think u should keep the mudguards on.

CLŽ

nm.

danny25

mr. big, I think that shot of the car's rear is the best one yet. :phatyo: I can't stop staring at those wheels and that drop, it doesn't even look like you could squeeze 1 finger between the tire and fender. But the camber on that rear wheel looks like it's off a bit, maybe it's just the pic.

Mugen_Power

Nice ride Mr Big, keep those mudguards on, it gives the car a nice and distinct look.



Peace

mr. big

thx guys

quikcls

yo big, i think the front could come down a 1/4"? then it would look like the h&r race drop!

mr. big

it would be too low then...id be scraping everywhere...the drop i have now is perfect...but thanks for the input

ktgumbo

That looks sooooooooooooooooo tight! Damnit i gone lower my car now!

shakademus

I know this is kinda off the subject, but what percent are you running for tint?

mr. big

dark all the way around...dont know about the percent..there were 4 shades to choose from, light, medium, dark, limo...i got dark

CLŽ

fine leave the mudguards on. i was just saying to test it out. damn!

mr. big

thanks for the suggestion, ill try it
