Skiboard, the car looks AWSOME! Just imagine lowering it with some SICK gunmetal rims on there..... AHHHHHHH getting images mmmmm PIMPIN!

there were engine problem yesterday, engine temp went high end so I had to freak and fill up some antifreeze gonna bring it back to the shop on monday for some problems (coolent, airbag). other than that, it's hella great ride (Still on slow side lol)

I finally got my rims

I went to wheels for deals last night and I got a hell of a good deal for rims, tires, and springs! I got 17 inch MSR style 116 with Z rated rubbers and eibach lowering springs. Everything installed and wheels balanced for $1400 taxes in!

what do you guys and gals think?

Im getting them in on firday from Deals 4 wheels (I know one of the guys that works there so he hooked me up) and I wanna put them on once I know that the weather will be 100% nice (as in no snow and dirt) I saw some road workers and street sweepers around the neighbourhood yesterday so thats an up. Im putting down $200 on monday and then the rest on saturday when i get them...who knows I might wanna get the whole thing done that day

I originally wanted the racing harts (like the ones in my sig) but they are CRAZY expensive so I got these cuz they are b-e-a-utiful! they might not be the same BUT the center caps are very similar!

I just came back from wheels for deals and I deposited $200. The wheels should be in by next monday I was also wondering what kinda drop I should get? The wheels 4 deals guys said 1.6 but im gonna be driving the civic in the winter so I was thinking 1.4 inch. what do you guys think?

Baller!!! you better hold me back cuz I want those rims on my car ASAP (I'll try my best to keep the new shoes of the car for as long as possible) and hopefully everything said about my ride was good.

so when are we doing this hole install party?

^for the drop u can get neuspeed sports and they drop 1.75 in the back and 1.5 in the front i think. I have those and i drove all winer witout any issues!!! 1.4 all around will still leave u with a little bit of wheel gap, but either one will look sweet!!!! YO ILL HOLD U BACK!!!! i gotta hold myself back...we can hold eachother....hahaha that sounds gay but whatevah!!! Im thinking near the beginning of april we should get everything together!!! Thats fairly soon and the weather should be lookin nice by then also!! What u think about that?

I'm pretty sure it's 1.75 front 1.5 rear

Early April sounds good to me. I need to go next week and get my tires mounted and balanced.

can't wait to get those springs installed at the party!
