whats special is they are the only 3 peice wheels 19" ever made pcd:100 4 lug

i.e. 4x100

and to add to thise they have a stepped lip and only weight 18.9 lbs..

after having 2 sets of hart wheels(the only made 2 peice 4x100 wheels except the rasy g games.. i figured the only way to move was up.. so i got the cream of the crop and waited 8 months for them to be custom made... noone has these wheels and noone will until i sell mine.. long time down the line


riley

sometimes... u just do things cause u wanna.. and so i did.. and i also bought tein flex w/ edfc.... because i just felt like it.. and 4 piston calipers/2 peice rotors.. because what the hell.. their my bday/xmas presents for myself

are the rays lug nuts, just a 6-sides lug nut? no locking mechanism to it? if i was spending that kinda money on rims, i sure as hell wouldnt want a set of lug nuts that you could take off with a simple wrench.

well mr abmerop... the rays lug nuts are 16 6 sided 19mm hex nuts that weight absolutely nothing and 4, 7 sided w/ a indentation for the key to fit(i.e. someone cant go out and buy a set for 130$ or w/e and steal my wheels cause their lock is different.(Rays produces 96 different keys so.. that they dont have to double up on same 7 sided key often.)

THE flex was made to fit.. i.e. 01+ civic on manual and Flex decal

the fronts were fine... they had the most amazing fittings and washers,pillow ***** omfg and everything was orgasmic.. fit perfect and was realllly low... lower than any SS ive seen...

but the REARS .. the bottom bolt the bushing on TEIN was .5" too wide and wouldnt fit between brackettes i mean i could grind it down to fit.. and it would be fine.. but then warantee issues.. so im just gonna call tein monday and tell em to shove it up their ***...

on top of all this they gave me the wrong EDFC (12120 instead of 12140)

and i couldnt get my control arm off to install bushings,+i couldnt get rear drums off to install shoes... all in all the past 27hours of working my *** off have been nuthing but a pain so im bout to just say FUC.K IT and idk what.. im exhausted

your tellin me... see about 1+ year ago i did a big "install" weekend and took me 19 hours to do B&G... i guess its just first time=bitch...idk man im really sick of it.. but at least my wheels fit perfect and ima put em on next week.


as it looks i think ima sell car for a 3.2Cl-S maybe.. im just trying to find one.. the civic is nice.. but each lil problem sends me insane lately... my bestfriend has a 3.2TL 1999 and its amazing.... im looking around for a 99+3.2 because their fairly cheap... hopefully i can find something

if your still planning on modding, you'll still run into some problems with the Cl-S. However a friend of mine had a '00 3.0CL-S and it was an awesome ride. So classy...
