LMAO...well, you posted in between and it lost it's funny! So I had to go back and quote..which, in turn, gave me time to decide that dk sounded a little too vulgar.

LMAO, Marcel...I'm sure that by making a comment like that you're hoping that members only know your current set up and are not going to retort with some smart alecky comment about how only 3 months ago you "couldn't believe you guys lower your cars and run aggressive fitment" with dem ***descriptive expletive*** old wheels you on your car...
Cause it would suck if someone did remember something like that!

Just placed order for some universal flat/slightly domed silver center caps and new Rays decals.
Sometimes, a little sprucing up helps a lot. I also think I may have filled the tires up with too much air, which obviously would affect the ride and contact patch. Little details to keep me entertained!

Here's the absolute worst of the damage, and only on this one but as you can see, lots of tread left.
After doing more research...the AP1's managed with a friggin 6.5/7.5" wheel combo...
7.5" all around with a slightly different set of tires will be fine for now...
Plus, I have a friend that's looking for 2 of mine for his NSX front and is trying to source some 18x9 TE for the rear...if that happens, him and I can make a deal and swap.
Yay...I'm happy I didn't throw the baby out with the bath water!
New decal will mask it nicely...

pbook...you're a trip.
Poor guy I was going to meet with...this time I saved his number and told him I'd give him first text if I decide to sell in the future.
I have also been in touch with my buddy that will be likely sourcing the set of 18 x 9" for a swap. I'd have to think about new stickers and powdercoat for the spokes to match anyway...then, good set of tires.
We shall see!
No, Anil...remember, I have those oem throwback civic centers but they are raised and look kinda busy. The ones I bought are abs and just silver and slightly domed.

I wanted a set of TE-37s for my 03 V6 6MT Accord coupe ever since I got it back in 05. Sold that a few months ago and now I want some for my TL-s. Or for my s2000.
It's probably the best looking wheel ever made.

CE28N's have always been my fav....I was carried away by Jeremy's Advans for a bit but in the end got what I always liked....
TE37's looks amazing as well....but something about 8-10 spoke wheels do it for me

different stroke for different folks
the XD9 are awesome but not lightweight....the CE28/Advan RG/RS/TE37 bring in the lightweight factor (which does mean a lot to me)....
else I loved the XD9 set which John (ebelp) had....you should check out his thread...here is his type S on some XD9...

What I don't like about the CE, is that the spokes taper...but I agree, they look very similar to Advan, most people confused mine when I first got them.
TE, I used to hate...but then I got a deal I couldn't pass up and drank the Kool-Aid.
Either way, first world problems like a mofo.
