My Vic thread

Ok, I'll start this out very politely, please don't bash my wheel selection as I had the rims on a 94 escort tuckin rubber, this is my style, and it's never going to be completed. Constructive criticism is MORE than welcome. Without further ado, here is my 1995 Civic DX

From the day we got it til today. More pics added as I continue in my new venture (this is our first honda, so be nice plz!)



NSX FTW!


























First "MOD"






Ok, the following is where I expect the flaming to begin... So with this in mind, remember what I stated at the beginning of the post. Please be respectful. I know it needs some smaller, we are trying to trade these wheels for a set of 16" Motegi's.









See the difference?









That's all for today. We are going to get a Condenser tomorrow, and get her d/s turn signal operational, and get the car road trip ready.

Re: My Vic thread

You need bigger tires and a drop.Those wheels look bigger than 16''.

Re: My Vic thread

We're trying to trade those (18"s) for a set of 16's. 205-50's for the new rims, a 1.5front 2.0 Rear drop, body work, paint, and then other cosmetics!

Re: My Vic thread

Oh I read the description wrong then.I think 16'' is a little too small.Did you consider 17''?

Re: My Vic thread

I did, but 16's would look really good with a 1.5 drop, I am a fan of having meaty (but not too much) tires, like 205-55's, maybe 50 series tires on it.

Re: My Vic thread

Re: My Vic thread

Haha I like you already, I have another photochop nerd in here with me . I just haven't had the time to Chop any stuff for myself We kinda like the white because of the contrast and color break, but before too long, the entire car will be patched and primered, so from there I can decide what color I want.

I personally love the 6th Gen SI blue... Electric blue is it? I'm learning!

Re: My Vic thread

I'm not too keen on them, but they ride 100% better than the 18's I had on it.

Re: My Vic thread

Those rims are kind of unique so they stick out. How are the treads on those tire? They look almost completely gone.

Re: My Vic thread

Two of them are not that great, but I put the good tread tires on the back. It's not like it has the power to spin anyways :P

Yeah NO KIDDING! Lol, there are a couple around my area, one is cable, and one's hydraulic. I think I remember someone saying to go for the cable one, but I may be mistaken. Then I gotta get the pedal assy from the donor correct?

And we cleaned it out today, just no updated interior pics Maybe later!
