Wow, thx justnspace.
Question for anyone.... If I initially run with the 225/40-19f and 245/40-19r tires, what problems might I encounter on stock suspension BESIDES the speedo being off?

The G35 wheels seem to be the most fitting WITH a drop though.

M45 wheels on a TL= IMO

agreed. that's mine in the first picture, and while i think it looks good with the current moderate drop...i think it'll look 10x better with a more noticeable drop. coilovers here i come!

G37 and M45 wheels look good. I don't like how the G35 wheels looks.

i've had them in for a few months now, they are umnitza v2 angel eyes. they will last a very very long time...i wouldn't have went through the trouble of having them and the LED strip installed if they weren't going to last a long time. my headlights are one of my favorite modifications. i would recommend them to anybody. they look great in person and people ask about them all the time. go for it!

i got them from here: http://umnitza.com/umnitza-acura-pre...08-p-1340.html

Those pics are on Eibach Pro-Kit and stock shocks/struts? I have the springs already and I'm just waiting for the nice weather to put them on. I like the stance it looks perfect that way IMO.

IMO this picture looks perfect to me. The gap is even front/back, and overall the car looks slightly raked which suits the lines of the car in my eyes:

yeah i see what you mean. the overall gap is even, but i just want to eliminate the gap all together..maybe drop it another 1.5" inches.

i'm not trying to tuck major tire or anything, basically just want the wheels to be flush with the fender with minimal tucking (if at all)

try it with coils. if you dont like another 1.5 then you can raise it.

^yeah it's just trying to figure out how to justify spending $800 on something that i don't necessarily "need" lol

it's like...well i already have a drop...do i really wanna spend all this money to have more of a drop?

the answer is obviously yes, i'm just trying to talk myself out of it. doesn't work too well so i'll most likely buy something within a month or so.
