Definitely nice, once you add that drop it will look even better. Good choice of rims.

That thing needs to be dropped like a bad habit LOL...but nice rim choice

As for Toronto, we always get rape prices bro no matter what, buy from a forum vendor here a bit cheaper if any thing

Yuck, why did you go with 35 series tires, you should have gone with 40. With 40 series it would fill the wheel well better, ride better, look better, protect the wheel better, etc.

No and No. I have 40 series and my speedo was unaffected, at 60 mph I am really going 61....big deal. As far as rub goes no again. Mine is not even close to rubbing with RDX wheels which are a more aggressive offset.

I am no longer lowered, but I was on Tein SS coilovers. Lowering a car does not affect its suspension travel though so if you rub lowered, you will rub unlowered as well when you compress the suspension.

As far as pics go there are pics of my car on this forum. there are not many topics on this forum so it should be easy to find.

Yea I seen it with 19 Rdx rims I have the same offset btw.. I don't want the wheel to tuck I would like a very small gap between the wheel and fender. I think once I get the springs done, It will be exactly what I am looking for. Thanks for your insight though..

I am very anal retentive. I had mine when it was lowered where the tires at all 4 corners and and full tank of gas where each tire was sitting 8mm above the tire. I hit some monster dips and bumps where I bottomed out my suspension, but I never rubbed.

Good luck to you.

Not feeling the silver part of the rims, should be all black, would look cleaner. Progress has been around for quite some time. They are pretty old school.

Used to be VERY popular back in the days with most Honda owners. From my experience with the springs on other cars, it is a tad bit stiffer than stock and work well with the stock struts. Do a search a ton of info comes up.

Actually (not to hijack) we have a similar wheel with perfect specs and no machined inner lip...

I have 19 inch Acura rims on mine. I will post pics when this site let me. I have been here over 15 days and posted at least 7 posts, not local, but it still won't let me post pics. Frustrating to say the least! I joined here to see everyones' cars, get ideas, show mine, share ideas. LOL
