smallest tire size for 8.5 is 225width and that looks horrid.
im 19x9.5 +45

front is flush
rear is sunken. if i add 15mm spacers, technically its the same as 19x9.5 +30 and it'll be flushed

no poking with this setup

my tires arent stretched

very clean. hows the plasti dip holding up? thought about using clearcoat over the plasti dip to match the glossiness of your cf grill?

Yea defcon, thats what you told me, which is why i think can do +22 in the rear with a bit of camber and roll, maybe slight stretch.

ttk you need a slight stretch for rear tires. are you on coils now? why 18s? they going to look small.

the plastidip is holding out alot better then the original silver from acura!! !$!%! no i dont want to make it glossy black.. i like the matte look with the cf as it pops out more.

Going to point roberts today to pick up coils but not installing until i get back from toronto on the 10th. 18s cause when slammed i think it will look fine and tires are cheaper. Photoshoot after!

Nice! Not your usual plastidip grille

I suggest doing the CN Tower Edgewalk too, I went a couple weeks ago with my homegirl, it was siiiiiiiick, far from the ground but far from scary.

the grill doesnt fit 2010... i dont think i own a 2009. yes you resuse the emblem. i dont know about difficulty because i work with cars everyday.

i think i am done with the car.. maybe get a cargobox or a hitch. for extra storage lol think i am going to drive and live in TO for awhile after my school.

i screwed up i shoulda done the cn tower last. doing that first made the rest of my trip pretty boring. hahhaa the edgewalk was $170 + taxes or something. but it includes all the attractions inside the cn tower. maybe pricey but you only need to do it once in a lifetime. a must do indeed!
