Talking How low can you go?!?
Some new updates... got 19x9 38 offset Real 3pc Enkei Aegis, wrapped with 225/35/19 Falken F452, dropped on Form and Function coilovers and official Honda window visors (not on yet). Not too sure how long i'll have these wheels since there isn't enough lipage but couldn't pass up a good deal. Suspension rides real good even being this low. I may have to raise it up a lil sometime this week since I did have an incident over the weekend (stuck in a parking garage) haha. Enjoy!!

Thanks! As mentioned, i do want to probably get new wheels with a phat lip, but since these only been about a few weeks old, i think i'll rock them for now. Unless i see something i like for a good price.

You need exhaust tips or an axle/cat back soooooo bad. Your rear end looks weak without it. Otherwise it looks badass
