so you drove to the honda dealership in the middle of the night to take a pic with it with your car? ahhaha man that's just funny =p I guess the whole notion of you not being able to sleep and instead going out to random places to take pics with your car is a bit funny =p.

On another note, the car does look good !

GE8, your ride looks great! What rims are those and what tire size?
Is your car lowered?

you know.... the red Honda badges and the red from the base JDM tail lights might actually go nice with your rims.

hehe, ya you need a tripod for your late night shoots.

It looks like you on a 50 profile but could be wrong as your gap seems close to mine as im 195-50-16. Looks clean and simple, red is a tough colour, its a love hate thing

185/55/16 tires and the wheels dont even come close to rubbing with the offset. i have always wondered why people on here are so afraid of offset wheels lol. i have df210's and i still feel like im riding in a monster truck. lmfao. i had these exact wheels on my 2000 civic hatch and that thing was dumped. i cant wait to get a set of full coil overs for the fit so i can dump this too.

Thats how he pulled it off, oem tires.

Its funny that even me with a wheels that is 6.5" wide, 195-50-16 and df springs will get a slight rub (only on the plastic inner lining) when I hit a big dip anytime on a straight. I havent givin it enough in turns yet to see :P


And yeah, All my cars are dumped so the df's are great forsure but once a nice set of coils come out, it will be a nice re swap

I'm not talking about rubbing though, i am talking about not sticking out from the fenders a half inch, when i tried my budds 17x7 +40 drag CE28 replicas, the wheels stuck out about half an inch past the fenders?

his 17's probably weren't running 185 tires =p I'm assuming they'd be at least 205-215, which make a huge difference too!
