it seems as if 18x9.5 +22 are the ideal specs for the TL. I need to step my game up, I've been looking at new wheels but I hate running reps and legit wheels are fucking crazy pricey lol

everything looks awesome man

 

Yeah they're ideal specs, with 225/40 it won't rub much. I had to camber in a bit because of slightly lower offset. I have no issues with any cast wheels I have ran.

 

Picture of my car and I. Got a banner done couple days ago to rep the group my friends and I started. Quad tips going on today! And wheels will be painted this week too. I decided to do the gloss graphite that I did on my stock wheels about a year ago.

 

Good shot-keep the updates coming.

 

Just finished repainting my wheels. It's not too much of a difference, just a bit lighter and glossy compared to matte before.

 

Looks good!

 

I got my quads on a few days ago too but never posted it. I deleted the rear mufflers out of impulse so currently it's RV6 V3 J pipe and then 2.5 inch straight pipe. I am adding a resonator to it next Friday because the drone is crazy.

 

Hope everyone's weekends were great!




Right exhaust hanger cracked causing it to sag

 

Here is what my current exhaust setup sounds like. Resonating it in a few days!

 

Looks good and sounds good!

 

I've got to say this is one of the cleaner builds I've seen - and an inspiration! I don't particularly care to have any stickers on my car, but lmk if you have a TL meet up one of these days as I'm roughly in the same area.

 

looking good man - new wheels are growing on me. did you start new IG? you followed me the other day, but it looked like a new account? lol keep up the good work!

 

Thank you! I am out of the TL scene here in the Bay though. My buddy and I started a chapter and the drama that eventually came about with new members made me throw in the towel. My friend is hosting a 9th gen Accord meet in May for all of Norcal. I will send you details or if you want, add me on Facebook (Numair Hirani) and I will invite you to the event.
Thank you!! I started a second account for my car so I can have sort of a build thread going on there too without spamming my personal account.

 

aaahh gotcha man - yeah - i pretty much keep the IG for car stuff - i use facebook for the personal lol

 

Hey man, hit me up if you're in the Bay. Out here in SJ! Clean car. I was gonna get the same wheels!

 

Pm me your #. I'm always in SJ.

 

Took a nice drive down HWY 1 this past weekend! Got my tips fixed and resonated the exhaust too. I love this exhaust now.


Fixed tips


HWY 1 near Davenport


HWY 1 near Pescadero


La Honda

 

Couple more updates. Removed rear window visor and installed side splitters. Also, out of all the things I could have failed smog for, I failed because my battery was pulled and I didn't drive enough for a couple systems to function again.

Removed HIC visor again.
Side splitters

 

Always lookin good, Num.

 

Love it....

 

Where did you get those splitters?

 

splitters look good man! not obnoxious like most i've seen

 

Front is STi lip and sides are universal splitters from eBay cut to 77"

Thank you! I had the option to mount them farther out but I think even this is pushing it a little. I wouldn't go anymore aggressive than this

 

New clip?

 

 

 

love the fitment

 

that looks damn good.

 

Cant wait to see your next wheel setup

 

Fantastic looking TL

 

Back on stocks. New wheel setup coming soon. Ambits are sold and gone.

 

New wheel setup!!!!

 

What kind of bulbs are those?

 

Looking good bro!! Even on stocks, keep killin it!!

 

Tired of cleaning them spokes, huh...
Don't lie!

 

Bump for a bay area cat! Nor-cal!

 

Which bulbs?

Thank you!

You caught me......

 

Teaser of the new wheels! Will send pics today after mounting.

 

quick question the es2 you used to rock, were they 18x8.5 +22? If not do you remember the size and offset of the wheels? Thx

 

They were 18x8.5 +15 with a 215/40 bud. They were +35 and I used a 20mm spacer to clear my brakes.
