Thanks guys...the yellow film really gave me the look I was going for. The light is much more controlled and deeper than before.

Very clean man! I've been meaning to pick up some yellow vinyl also for my wife's 3000K fogs on her TSX.

Specs:

19x8.5 +35 235/35
19x9.5 +40 245/35

I think the fitment is perfect for a car that's going to be lowered about 1"...but if you're going super low and flush you'll need spacers.

wheels look hot. but you may need to lower it more than you would like to pull them off.

Yea...I'd love to get some coilovers and lay it down, but its just not gonna happen...I drive this thing 60-70 miles a day on the parkway, and around town all over the place. I've daily driven slammed cars before...and its just not fun.

Congrats on the new wheels! I love LMs, whether they are reps or not.

Need to at least get rid of the wheel gap and then you'll be

I'll probably need new brakes soon...cause I can already feel them straining to corral these 19s...definitely going to upgrade to some slotted/dimpled zinc rotors and hawk pads. I just put some on the stang...and it stops on a DIME

I got my setup for the stang from Rotorpros.com...about $300 shipped, but they were much bigger brakes than the ones on the TL.

Where did you get yours?

Nice...I'm going to get a quote from Rotorpros...they worked out real good for me before.

I'm also pricing out coilovers...I'm thinking Tein Street Basis.
