I buy ALL of the OEM Parts i require for my Accord from the US.
From TasAuto, they do 89-00 Honda Accords only.. The shipping is decent, and it always works out cheaper than buying from my nearest...

You should never cheap out on these, because they're the items that keep your car under control.
Police are extremely tight on aftermarket mods in these categorys...
Agreed 100%.
Most cruises want 'cruisy' driving.. Not speeding/racing.
20KG of back seats won't affect your 'crusing' ..Except for when you stop, and all the other guys snicker at your motley...
Can you let us know your standard tyre size.. It's probably something like 195/60/R15
