Yes, all of those things...they also weigh next to nothing...when I went from the 245 aspecs to 225 on the advan I lost 7 pounds per corner.
I have a bud that asked me about them, but he wants to trade a type s set of wheels plus cash but isn't in a financial position to buy them outright.
They're expensive wheels...I think they'll help my selling price on the entire car if I sell it as a set, especially if the car goes North because I'll
be including some 18" michelin ice tires for the aspecs too.
If not, I'll certainly keep my boys in mind. They have pretty new $800 dollar michelin PSS on them too.

I don't quite want to be a used car lot but a blanket insurance policy and no need to register would be great.
As it stands, 5 is the magic number...I had a plate credit for another vehicle and wouldn't you know the taxes
will be light on this one again.
I told Austin I was gonna pay him with a bad check and if he called it in I would just photoshop the date
on my old registration if I got pulled over.

@thoiboi holy shit, backyard is right and 550 at that...WITH another set of wheels.
even with bodywork it would be worth it if it weren't autotragic.
@KaMLuNg the thing is...depreciation has hit bottom and bounced back a bit...
and we all have more money than when we got on the site and a sentimental attachment
to this brand that used to be fucking cool. Soooo...

@CCColtsicehockey there's a reason why Jason won't sell his TSX ever.

Got busy a bit with her last night already...figured I'd start off by adjusting the clutch pedal in hopes that
taking some stress off the pressure plate/clutch might save it if it does have a problem. We shall see.
Still had the high temp urea grease I had added. Needs an oil change, front and rear bumper respray would be cool...
a good cut and polish and seal...some suspension adjusting...throwing new tires on my black aspec 8.5" wheels...
If I can find a good deal on flashpro I might venture down that road again with my renewed belief in tuning and this
platform. Valve covers are leaking but timing belt and oil pump seal and steering rack leak have been addressed...
She's got 60K more miles than when I sold her but these motors are good to you if you're good to them.
Austin offered to wash it up but honestly, I like that part of the process and he was limited on time. Going to be fun getting
her back in fighting shape. Exhaust sounds fucking intoxicating, especially on downshift blipping.
The leather seats are not torn !
YET
I wet them down with lexol in hopes to keep them supple!
she still has what were brand new HFPC RV6 and JPipe and True Duals
J is sick as fuck and she was high on Nyquil as of 6pm last night...got the kiddos fed and put to bed by 8ish and I
had time to really clean her up. I didn't go too nuts because I want to clay bar and polish up in the next few months.
Filthy bitch! Austin's family lives on dirt roads...plus he was commuting 140 miles a day.
There she is...
I'm shocked to see that the EGR cover held up SO well to all these miles and years. Shit...still think the bling looks good.
