yeah its abp but whatever.
im thinking about going with TEIN parts for my suspension. i dont want to make the car look ridiculously low, just would like a nicer ride, etc. i think when you put them on you have an automatic lowering of about 1" correct? im thinking about a sway bar as well..

I bought the same rims in chrome and same tire size but I'm nervous about putting them on right now. You're not worried about snow, salt, and potholes? I was shooting for mid-april at the earliest to put mine on. They look really good though.

i didnt have a choice, which sucked, the other tires were undrivable due to complete tire wear. i have an appt to bitch at acura on friday, we'll see how that goes.
I like the Teins--prob wont happen till the summer, but springs and a sway bar will be great for this car. is there a front sway bar too? man im so unknowledgable about suspensions......

Your car looks fantastic with the new rims!!! Did you notice a big difference in the ride quality after jumping to the 19" rims and tires? Is it harsh compared to the original factory set-up? I love the look but don't want a harsh ride for daily driving? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

the biggest key was ensuring a nicer ride. im in my car a lot, so i made a point to make sure that this would happen.
coming from the EL42's (riding on steel rims is probably better), i have since noticed a significant change in the driving and handling. i am glad i bought the 245's over the 235's as well, for this makes for a more comfortable drive.
now if i could only get my dealer to pay for replacement tires because of the excessive rear tire wear problem!! once that happens, ill keep the 17's to revert to in the winters.
