Not a fan of decals/vinyl at all on a car (especially a new TSX) but wow that looks great from what I can tell. Looks like its lowered too? Or is it the angle of the pics? Any more pics of the front?

the '09 has HUGE fender openings, flares, etc.

You can fit 24's in there probably, lol.

LOL! you can probably do a 35mm offset for 9.5, I am sure you can even get 10's under there. Staggered 10's in the rear, 9's in the front. 20's lowered with Tein SS w/EDFC.....lol

YEAH me dreaming....

I don't know about fitting 20x10 in the rear...I tried fitting 20x10 +40 in the rear and it stuck out at least an inch. It looked terrible. So I ordered 20x8.5 +40 all the way around...wheels should be in this week!!!
