Thanks dude,

I like the first rims u got dude, i like that style rather than the bling.. I think your right with 20's makes it look good but what was your profile ? 30/35?

So a 20x8.5 +40 will fit wthout any rolling, scrubbing, camber .. That seems to be a better look and spec for me..

Thanks again...

Btw u still got those first rims? Lol

Rage King, just my 2 cents.

Generally what sort of driving do you do? If its mostly smooth roads, then a low car with large rims and mad camber is still alright. But if the roads are rough, I wouldn't recommend going past 18" rims for comfort and going too low will cause shit loads of problems. The Odyssey is pretty long and getting stuck on humps and enduring scrapes to the under carriage is not fun.

Low and big wheels is cool, but just remember the Odysseys you see are from Japan and their roads are much flatter and smoother than Australia. Fit those specs on a daily be prepared to loose some comfort. But I'm sure you already know that

^^thanks for the advice bud.

Yes that is exactly why i want 18-19" as i do alot of interstate driving. So being too low is a no go.

Ill test trial the height once i get coilovers Then ill choose from there what wheel size to get.

Old wheels are gone sorry... New wheels are still available and are runnning on 225/35/20 with 3 month old Yokohama tyres (pretty much brand spanking new)

I also still have the TEIN springs FS and you can see the ride height as per my pics posted.

PM me if you would like to check them out, can do something really affordable if you take them all

i have tein super wagons on my odc on the lowest setting and is not really low enough for me. So if your looking to slam your odc i would recommend not using tein super wagons. Maybe go BC coilovers if you want slammed.

^^pics of ODC?

Super flex suppose to be the to of the line for the teins ?

Installed modulo front lip and fog light kit today..(anyone has the same kit? And figured out the red single wire with plug is for?)

If you look closely behind the front bar there are engraved marking for the fog light cutout

Tools used;
Dremel, jigsaw, drill

After the hole was cut

Its weird how the cutout is actually not a rectangle lol.

Prepping for the HD double sided tape;
- cleaned up the cutout
- cleaned areas of where the DS tape is going to stick on the front bar with turps.

Installed the Non Genuine fog light lens

Sneak preview of the front lip and fog lights installed.

More pics will come once ive sorted out the wiring harness that this kit came with.

**Rage King** · 03-08-2012 09:34 PM

Also being a multi task expert lol

Ive also installed my new front DBA T2 wiper slot rotors.

Before

After

Will test drive later

Well done mate, the fact that you can install your own rotors means your DIY skills are way better than most of us here

How are you supposed to control the foggies with a non-OEM kit? My OEM kit requires a change to the indicator stalk and when the foggies get switched on there is an icon that appears in the instrument cluster, will this kit also have an indicator when foggies are switched on?

Thanks bud.

Well, the kit came with a switch which looks like oem type with a light indicator.

This kit was suppose to be plug and play, but its not.

There is a fused cable with a brown plug looks like this is the direct battery power.

Then a thin red wire with a pigtail which doesnt seem to plug anywhere oem style.

So im going to cut off the pigtails and wire up this red cable to the parklight switch which is fused at the IGN point. This way if i forget to switch off the main foglight switch once i remove the key it will auto shut off.

Only downfall is i wont have the fog light indicator on the cluster.

Im looking at a switch lever in YAJ but they dont fckin respond or ship OS.

**evolution** · 03-08-2012 10:33 PM

link to the item you are looking at on YAJ?

**Rage King** · 04-08-2012 01:39 AM

^^ ill find the link tmr.. Tired already..

Well ive managed to figure out the wiring. Had to solder here and there and also extend the power cables

Shes pretty much good now except to finish the last wire for the park light splice in and the bottom spash guards at the front bar.

Then test drive the new rotors tmr.

Next plans;
- prep, refurbish, paint modulo rear lip with the rear bar (to match colour)
- source coilovers
- source decent headers and change dump pipe to back piping to 2.5".
