Looks nice man.
Thanks! I think they kinda blend though, don't you think? too much silver lol

I feel like they rub when I lock my steering wheel, no signs of rubbing though... but 17x7.5 et45 should be ok... can't understand

No way that should rub. What size tires are you running?

225/50 R17, the reason I say they might rub is that when I lock my wheel I can hear some grinding noise, once I stop, noise is gone... start driving, while wheel is locked, I hear the noise... can't understand if that is my new wheels and tires or just something I didn't hear before

KYRGYZ, looking at those wheels I see what you mean about so much silver. A quick fix might be swapping out for black center caps to break things up a bit.

I dont think that is the wheels. That's only about .4 inches above stock 215/50r17 tires. And of you aren't lowered it definitely should not rub. Check and see if maybe a backing plate is scraping one of the rotors

Took my front plate off this past weekend for a big car meet here in Jersey

Really digging the look but debating whether or not I want to put it back on so I don't draw more attention from 5-0 than I already do :drive:

Looks good that one thing about Florida I like ( which isn’t many) is no front plate only rear

Got the Morimoto XB Foglights installed at my dealer, only $183 with a $20 coupon applied. Worth it, can wait to see it in action at night! :headbang:

Night Test Edit: Gonna have to fix the aim when I get the chance, right side is a bit lower than left. Which was kinda expected, same happened when I installed the headlights. Other than that...I love them! :love:

Where I live there’s not too many tuners ( Japanese) mostly retirees
but the few around are interesting builds no ricers mostly lowered and modded engine work and mostly older civic coupe

It’s been a long time coming, but I FINALLY got my ABS Dynamics roof finals painted and installed. Feels good to have 2 spoilers instead of 3. I’ve got the vortex generators ready to install tomorrow.

That looks badass. I want something like that for the sedan that could mount to the roof and glass.
