WOW! nice and sporty...they would look real tight on ur car with a low drop like I have...now just get some GC coilovers and you'll be set!!...Yah, they will fit, same size and offset as my rims, just trim the little plastic tabs on the top of the rear fenders...nice choice!!

How are the ground control coilovers? How is the ride?
What is the max drop with the GCC?
Used to have the comptech springs and I liked the way it handled.
I was thinkin about getting the Apex coilovers...
BTW doesnt eibach make GCC

Those are one of the better looking wheels that I've seen so far. Nice and clean design. All depending on the tire size you select, those will fit with a bit of trimming here and there.

Well, Eibach makes the springs used in the GC coilovers...the ride is rougher than stock or even springs, but not too bad and IMO it's worth it for the look!!...I believe the maximum drop is 3" all around, but not sure..check out my car http://acura-tl.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=34886

I have Kumho Ecsta Supra 712s 225/40/ZR18 and the only rubbing was from the little plastic tabs that can be cut off with any razor blade in like 5 minutes total for both sides...I think the Kuhmos are pretty decent tires,(good traction on wet and dry) but I think I'm gonna get a set of Nitto 555 225/40/ZR18 when I am ready for new tires...a little softer and better tread wear...My dad has the Nitto 555s on his 01' Corvette and he loves them, so I figure I will give them a try.

don't think those are real advans, their's are called the model 6. as for tires, 225/40 is good...your offset is high enough that you should get any rubbing with a moderate drop.

Pat, not sure what PCD stands for, but it has something to do with the bolt pattern as our bold pattern is 5x114.3.
Btw, when are your fog pix coming?
