those rota's fill the guards nicely
yeah who said 18x9.5 wouldn't fit :)
rears were such a bitch.. adjusting / readjusting.. smoke pouring from tyres cos rubbing hardout lol
hey Aero, wat specs are your rpf1s?
thinking of getting em, if i cant afford re30s =[
17x9 +35. looks good, but in hindsight I think I would have gotten +22
fills up the guards too much. they have 235/40 tyres on them and im scrubbing everywhere. at first, the rear wheels had smoke coming off them because of so much scrubbing on the rear guards.. so i had to set my coils on the rear to maximum height... and im still scrubbing lol! i think that 215/40 wheels will help the scrubbing a lot. coupled with some camber arms.Quote:

zomg... soo jealous!!. 18x9 +22? let me know when u get sick of them. lol
what tyres are u putting on them btw? 205? 215?

I want some mcgard nuts first thou, before I put them on :)
^ nice! cant wait to see them on
the only thing wrong with that picture is that .k.'s car is on stock suspension. they look fine once lowered. here are the same wheels on my car.Quote:

khoi. have u got any pics of my car with all 4 of the grids on?
Spray the grids Takata green :)
they're not mine lol. i was just trying them on. they're in .k.'s for sale thread tho.
need to find a better pic of all the grids on ur car aero.. i'll post wen i find it
Driving in melboune is effort, I don't understand this hook turn business..
ahhahaha man i need to find my way up to syd, i dont wanna pay 450$ for a return flight, could add a bit more and just go to asia
lol. did this happen to u, dez?

Carbon steering wheel
http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/2...ringwheelx.jpg
fark yeah!
how much is that?
ey aero since you are up in QLD get barefootbanzai's te37 :)
sure! u buying them for me as a late xmas gift? :p
ive got no money atm. rego, insurance, trip overseas, car service... replace engine mounts >.> :(
Its quite expensive. Around $1,200 included shippingQuote:

that is too much money for a steering wheel. i'd rather spend it on something else lol. however, im pretty sure that there is a kit to add the extra buttons on the steering wheel and have them wired up to the sound system in the vti civics.
I bought these carbon inserts. My wheel looks just like that ;)Quote:

actually reckon it will fit on the CU2 euro :)
Thats not really expensive by itself. Just because of shipping cost. $900. Its included airbag insideQuote:

They are rollable but not much. Its nearly impossible to roll them fully flat like on nissans. U can also shave the inside a tiny bit. Are u still on stock suspension? What tyres are u running on them? Camber and stretch tyres are ur friend on the 8th gen.
Btw, post some pics please!!!
Thanks for that Aero! I think i'll just try camber out the front and roll the rears, should be fine..... i hope. Pictures from phone. Hope you guys enjoy! Going for a photoshoot soon, i'll get some better pictures up then.

did you buy these rims off a dude with an evo? looks like a good evo fitment..
anyhow.. youre going to have to stretch tires on those to fit them in :)
Nah, got them fresh from America for cheap so decided to snatch them. Wanted a better fitment and some concave compared to my previous rims. So Camber isnt going to fix the problem?
what are the specs?
i fit 19x9.5+30 on my rear with 225/35r19 and -3.5 deg's camber or something and it still scrubs and i cut heaps of my body away, rolled heaps etc..
good luck anyway. its all fun and games :)
17x9+44?
what is there to do in syd for a day btw lol, besides the fish market!
im excited :D
i found the box with the center caps in i then put one in :D

then on asap! :D:D:D:D:D
needs bags yo :p man that looks insane
i would buy your bags if i wasnt gonna buy a new car this year :p
and move to melb too ahhaha
but if u drop your prices heaps before you go over seas i might be interested :P
*sad face* fd's are dying out, you guys are getting new toys
FDs arent dying out, people are just outgrowing them. besides from looks, they dont have much else to offer. it wont be long tho til these cars are cheap as chips and everyone starts engine swaping into them. they'll never be as light as an EG or EK, but they would still go hard with a k24 or k20a.
@dez - no need for bags, just dump ur n+ :p ... btw. lemme know when u wanna get rid of those CCWs ;) lol
Stig: Fish markets and beaching... that'll be a nice relaxing day.
You could always go shopping and check out the new Westfield in the city.
Dam thats crazy! Mine are only 17x9+38 with 225/45/17 with natural camber. My car isnt dumped so im just going to roll the rear guards for now and camber the front and see how it runs. Cheers man, btw put the rims on already!!Quote:
