SSM4DR's New staggered wheels (Updated 12/25/12)

Figured that since lots of members on the forums are making these kind of threads. Why can't I? lol. Anyhow here's my new wheel set up.


Specs: 19x8.5 +30 up front and 19X10 +38 in the rear. With my ride height, I did fender rolls and slight pulls to both front & rear fenders.

very nice, I hope your planning on clearing the headlights soon

not a fan of the black "A" though. You should have left it chrome. Very nice car though

Good choice! IMHO think it would've looked better gunmetal, but that's just me

Very nice! I noticed you are using Acura center caps. Are those from your stock wheels?

Thank you . I got sick of being slammed with my old 18's and wanted a no gap drop with some bigger and concave wheels.

Thank you . Most wheels I looked at didn't have the concaveness I was looking for but these.

Thank you . I'm more about keeping it simple and clean. Maybe a slight aggressiveness, but nothing too crazy.

Thank you . These OEM Acura center caps are actually from the CL, MDX, and 4th generation TL's.

Thank you . I actually bought me off my older brother with a IS350. And yes, he gotten them off wheeldude.

Thank you . I want to try the 10.5 rears later on down the road. And I like to make people play that guessing game on what wheels they are with the Acura center caps.

Lowered the rear about another 1/2 inch to even out with the front now. Got skunk2 front camber kits installed 2 days ago. Got an alignment and now my cars alignment spec is perfect for being as low as I am lol

whats next u ask?.. after I fix some dents, possible bad axle/s.. then my next mod will be a v3 jpipe. What about you? I knew from the beginning of your progress thread,, your choices of wheels will not disappoint

Thank you . I'm currently running the Federal 595 in 215/35/19 fronts and 235/35/19 rears. I think Federal tyres run a bit wider IIRC. So it'll be the same as 225/15/19 fronts and 245/35/19 rears.

Good stuff bud! The V3 J-pipe would be a great addition, according to all the reviews I've read. Up next for me is: Type S rear bumper with Type S Aspec lip, and ATLP V2 quads. Right now I'm just slowly saving up for that project.

Sorry for the late post, I haven't been active on AZ. The Federal SS595's stretch nicely, that's a plus when you're lowered running aggressive wheels. Ride quality wise, they're okay not bad. But mines aren't brand new, so I can't really say much about them.
