BTW...to the guys w/ Teins & EDFC...is the EDFC something that you use enough to justify the extra $$$? I've been trying to decide on coils lately, and leaning towards Teins because of the EDFC...but that's just bc I like gadgets.
Camber isn't adjustable on any Honda/Acura unless you get a camber kit. The Megans come with a pillowball mount to "help" with camber not being thrown out so much when lowering.

Some one correct me if I'm wrong.

Eh, good luck with that. But also check zilvia.net if you're looking for aggressive wheels. I got my wheels from rb also.

youre both correct. in terms of outspacing for wheel fitment tho, every 1/2" of width equates to 6mm of outspacing (half backspacing, half out spacing)

you wont fit a 9 +5 up front without a roll, pull, shave and a 215/35 tire.

Nice, dude. I thought you got these a while back. maybe that was Evo.

Looks really good. You should lower the front a little and even out the wheel gap with the back. Best thing about Megans is they go soooooo lowwwwwww.

I have mine for about 18 months now and they are still going very strong with daily use. Damper settings are at 15 all around.
