Thumbs up Update, Some new stuff, light changes (HFP Wheels)

**Tax Return $$ came in so I got a Type-R lip put on. Fogs were put on a while ago. New suspension setup coming in very soon, can't wait. SE CD changer, just some light changes.

Sorry for the crappy car wash pics...will post more in the future...







***





Here's some quick pics of my '01 Coupe with HFP Split 7 spoke that I picked up yesterday. Tire size is 205/55/16, I thought that they would be too big but that's what they came with so whatever. I went from 215/35/19 so these are MUCH better (ride quality, I can keep my kidneys ) I think I am more happy with this setup than riced out 19's

I seriously thought about getting a new car, but after these wheels came along I think I'm gonna hang on to the civic for a little longer, she's been good to me.

if you don't mind me asking, with the tires, about how much did those run you?

I bought them used from another civic owner who sold his car and had these lying around. So I got really lucky and picked them up for CHEAP. Let's just say these cost me the same amount for 4 wheels/good tires for about what I would have paid for 2 wheels brand new from Honda.

Drop is Goldline springs and Tokico blues...

Thanks for the comments guys..

big wheels arent a daily driver choice..imo. too bad of ride, and risk of blowing tire daily, and bending rim. also, the 16 and 15s look best... i had to grow on me. so i love my 16s. i will get some M7s soon enough. and ill wait for them!

Thanks for the nice comments guys...


My car isn't that fancy and all...I just wanted to show those out there who are interested in what HFP wheels look like on a different civic (like mine )


Anyone that posted pics of their Civics...they all look good!!

bkidon- I personally wouldn't powdercoat your stock wheels, just in case you ever need to put it back to stock or something. That way you always have a back-up set of wheels..
