The side skirts and fenders are a bit overdone but I'm looking at the wheels more than anything

I'm gonna go ahead and guess those are the epic 18x10.5 et22s that I want.

If those were 19s there would be a bigger lip. I think. haha

As much as I love TEs, it would be great to get my hands on a set of LEs. Full polish lip with gunmetal face

That evo is beautiful and I like those CE on the IS Eric.


I would love to see what they look like on the TSX haha. This coming winter it will be time to start looking for new wheels for the TSX as the current ones will have been on the car while it is in a running state for a year now.

Eric I'm pretty sure the Evo guys run 10.5j +15. The +22 in the same width has the same face though.

Not any time soon that is for sure. The Spoon front bumper will not go back on till I can afford a carbon front splitter for it and also I have already test fit the Advans and until I can get new tires for them I can't put them on. the 265 track tires that came on them do not fit. the fender sits on the tire and 1in of tire sticks outside the fender in the front. Sorry

You know what..actually don't worry about it. It has probably already been done and is only a quick google image search away.

Thanks man! Glad you approve. Dorthy said her friend coworker said the wheels look good haha. I cant for her to come home so I can see what it looks like rolling lol. I've been a big fan recently of painted text on tires so I had to do it for myself. The paint I used is cracking so I will have to redo them.

I tried a paint pen and it didn't work extremely well so I tried some pactra paint and that's cracking. It could be because the tire might not have been real clean.

I have already posted a pic in this thread of Gold Advan RG on a CGP TSX. It didn't have the spoon bumper though. Sorry that it bothers you that I would like to protect my bumper. I have pics if you want to see that the wheels to not fit on the front of the car in case you do not believe me.

I give zero fucks about whatever kind of excuses you can come up with.

The fact of the matter is it is crazy as fuck to me that you have an entirely different bumper and a whole army of other wheels and we as the acurazine community that are supposed to love acuras can't even get a decent shot of your jdm stuff. It's just fucking mind blowing.

Yes I know if I don't do things the way Eric wants then it is an excuse I have shown the world the Spoon bumper and don't feel like running it right now. I like the J's bumper for the time being.

Oh and like I said. 265 doesn't fit on an 8.5 +35 wheel. And no more front camber isn't logical considering I want to track the car. I am looking to reduce my negative camber in the rear soon actually.

Eric, you live here...if you want to see variations of Jason's car, just go look at it. It's how I've seen both bumpers, different wheels, etc. It's not that hard.


265 on an x8.5 wheel looks so good...shame you can't run it.

This is also true.

I could run it if it were a different offset like say +50.

Will you kindly install the spoon bumper and install two of the advans and roll that hoe out of the garage for a photo or three. Thank you in advance. Your kindness is appreciated.

The way it's looking, maybe I should go up there and hold his hand while he swaps the bumper and two wheels. I just want to see something different.

What did Jason do...put on a jdm fashion show for you when you went up there?!
