awesome man i was worried about getting coilovers and rims at the start, cause i've never driven on them before, but after i got my coilovers adjusted after my wheels got put on, together with my 35 profile tyres feels great, hardly a difference from 18s stock, just a tiny tad harder ride, but i actually like it not the stock bouncy feel

and yeah im surprised that the kumho tyres grip pretty damn good, plenty for what this car need noise wise is quite low, especially with some music is not even noticeable.

with my set up now i think it was even better drive than when i had 18 to be honest lol

Thanks!!! Stock setting at the moment, i believe there's 16 so it should be 8 clicks back from the hardest. It feels just right, not bouncy and not harsh, so i'll keep it this way for as far as i'm concerned

haha thanks!! it was some quick photos taken with my mobile phone just before i walk over to college lol thought the carpark might be a good place for a few quick pix, but the close up of the tyre / wheel didn't turn out so great haha, wanted a closer shot of the "gap" but I'm sure you guys have an idea already looking at the first couple pics

I'll take some when i give it a clean

from what I've seen, SSR rims can cost as much as some high end volks. I may be wrong about this but I know SSR is a very reputable brand. These rims in particular ive never actually seen before....i didnt even know SSR made mesh type wheels. very sexy though

thanks for the comments guys TTK5 is right, SSR is quite up there with work, volks etc.. I can't remember the exact price but it's on the SSR website, this wheel's under the vienna series i think. It's the 3 piece version in 20, so i guess you guys probably have an idea of how much that would be. I bought it from a trader in the Australian Honda forum, he helped me with dealing with SSR, imported it over for me and shipped it right to my door.

ok, i think i've decided to look into rolling the fenders at least the back anyways and dump it a little more just covering a little bit of the rear tyre. Not sure about the front, maybe just close the gap a little more or something.

She's a beauty! Just curious are the bumps and circles in front of your bumper the adaptive cruise control or like a parking sensor? Those rims really stand out in the sun.

The circles are parking sensors, they have it in the front also. The rectangular bumps are headlight washers.
