1/4 Mile on 15" Rims

Has anyone ever tried? I have a pair of 9lb RacingHart CP0-35s that was left over from my Prelude.

I would be willing to sell the rims too.

BTW I just picked up my 2003 TL Type S on Saturday.

Just a little bit of my racing history:

98 Prelude SS (Auto)
15.3 All Motor
13.9 with a 50 Shot of NOS

I don't think they'll clear the brake calipers.

Real NICE!! Congrats.

Your passengers's side exhaust tip looks uneven, maybe get it for an adjustment as I did for mine.

Thank you very muchie.

That's just perspective. I have a straight back shot and it looks even.

BTW, what was wrong with yours? Did they just change the rubber hanger to fix it?

They fixed it or readjusted it. I did not ask what they did.
But I know that before, the pass's side was not tight, my friend was behind me while driving, and said my right's side exhaust was dancing!
