btw, as the name says, i have a 2007 KBP.. which means it's type s

 

very nice!! going staggered, eh. let's see some pics after install!

 

haha.. wasn't really going staggard. Had 2 used 235s but i really wanted 245s... just happened that way =)

i love that staggard huge lip status.. but i think too many people have it.. i'll be having.. something a lil different though =)

 

No shit! That's a good amount of work. TELL US which 19s you're getting!!

 

haha.. they're not crazy ones.. just looks different.. but trust me.. i've been fixing up cars in a clean fashion so they won't be some *ugly* looking ones...





my previous ride...

 

^^Sweet!! If that pic is any indication of how you're going to make the TL look, then i'm confident you won't let us down. My brother had C5s on his 97 Accord. I love those rims.

 

haha.. gotta keep it OG status.

that car was equipped with a lot of stuff...

too much to list..
o man.. and that was when i was a broke college student lol

 

So you getting RichieV6's Jpipe

 

oo.. yes... my secret has been.. revealed lol.
yea, ATLP is good and all, but looking at the dimensions of both, i chose to go with that one. I've made 2 custom Jpipes, 6 custom exhaust set ups on that accord.

I'll be doing the same for the TL and not change out the muffers. Those TLS mufflers are too damn sexy to let go!

 

I had C5s on my 00 accord coupe....werd I miss those rims

 

becoming a problem putting on my rims.. grinding the stock studs... nobody wants to do it!! AHHH driving me insane

 

eh, griding the studs!?

 

daymm cant waitt to see the carr!

 

stocks studs are too long after the spacers.
the type of rim i wanted only had high offsets so had to force it it to make it lower.

found a shop that'll do it so going there on saturday morning.
Install will either be on Sunday or saturday so i'll have pix by this weekend.

I was always those type of guys who wanted a shit load of parts and install all in 1 to 2 days... doing it now =)

this wait is killing me!

 

Sounds unsafe... Be careful

10mm spacer + shorter studs... ? how's that gonna work?

Most folks that use spacers need longer studs...?

 

The suspense is killing me NOW .... pics pics pics ....

 

not necessarily.
under 10mm is 'safe' I'd say up to 5mm is safe because it still allows the lug nut to tighten into a good amount of thread. However, by putting a 10mm, after putting on the rim, there's only about 1 thread for you to tighten down your lug nuts. Basically, drive a mile and you'll have rims flying down the road with your car 'slammed' to the ground

the 10mm spacers with the stock studs allow you to have new extended studs.

check out the company i got the spacers from.

just a lil update..

got bored yesterday so i tried on the lug nuts.
looks pretty nice =)



the whole car in general.. need to drop it more!!

 

hey as2222, i'm on the other forum too. you probably don't remember me, here's my old ride to jog your memory. looking forward to see your modded TL-S.

 

haha wussup man! of course i remember you.. 03 or older version 7th gen with the 06~07 rear bumper conversion.. my homie wanted to pick that up from you but he got no dineros.. lol

i used as2222 before but wanted to create a new name so my other friend is using that name now for black market purpose only =)

 

i wonder why the accord people switch over to the TLs?

 

I am one of those guys too.

 

Good question I used to own a accord too.

 

Ditto, I loved the Accords.

I guess when we grow up, our taste in cars progress as well =)

More elegant, more luxurious, more car ^^

 

haha yes, i think so too.

however, here's an updated.

took a couple pix on my phone cam cuz my camera battery died on me...

the original rims i had in mind did not fit due to brembos.. DAMN THOSE THINGS!!

so i switched em out for some other rims.. $2000 w/ tires T.T

specs :
19x8.5 +38 235/35/19
19x9.5 +38 245/35/19

planning on installing the headlights, UR underdrive pullies, intake, 8000K hid bulbs this weekend on Sunday.

now i gotta get the Muteki open ended lug nuts to put on before my blue lug nuts cuz my lug nuts are now hiding in the holes T.T

damn offsets!!

i'll put up some pix later tonight or tomorrow =)

 

so are you the one always spotting me around the cerritos town centre? we seriously should do a little photoshoot when you get some of your mods done!

 

took some quick pix on the camera phone.

Let me know your opinion!

 

o fa sho dude!

I'm serious about that mini meet or whatever with the locals in the garage structure!

Let's have it so that it gives me a reason to wash my car lol

 

kinda pissed cuz i can't lower my car more... the front tires will hit my fender when i make turns... T.T... think i'm gonna go with 215 or 225 for my next front tires..

 

nice, but i thought you weren't going the staggerd route...........

 

wasn't gonna but nothing fit and i needed to get rims ASAP so my shop hooked me up with these... $2300 bucks.. i might sell em soon cuz i don't want the staggard and want a more aggressive offset with low pro tires.

They look nice though! =)
