Check out my whip! New Rims (Pics)!
 
So here is my 03 Vic. Just got my new 18 x 7.5 Konig Incident's, wrapped in 215/40/18 Nitto Neo-Gen tires. I love these tires! Very good traction and handling. Have better traction on wet roads than I did on my stock tires on dry pavement. Got everything for about $1200 at discount tires. The sales guy had an 04 Vic with headers and cat back and intake. The first time I talked to him, he offered to let me take his car for a spin to check out the mods for myself!!!! Talk about customer service!

I'm lowered on Goldline springs. Ride is alright. Little bumpy at times, but not much different from stock. Will be switching to Tein SS coilovers for my next mod. Hopefully wont be too far away.

Any questions or opinions are welcome!

Peace out Playa's

BTW you missed the memo...
calling you car a whip gives you automatic douche-bag status. I suggest you not do that again.
Your car is nice but dont call it that...please

Apparently this was a one-man memo :_doh:

Anyway, I love the way it looks. Kinda reminds me of my car in the front, but black. Those rims are kinda trippy looking around the outside, but I think it all works great together.

The one thing that just pisses me off is the hole I have in my grill. Stupid rocks. I'm not sure what I want to do yet to fix it. I had the base painted, and matches really well, so I dont want to get a new one. Was recommended to get metal mesh to put behind it, but I dont know. I would probably make it look horrible.

I was original plan was a black or gunmetal rim with silver lip. But thats all I see everywhere now, and IMO they look like steelies...just not my style, to each his own. But when I saw these, its a simple design yet has a little bling. After all 18's and up on a civic is more for the bling factor rather than performance. I figured if I'm gonna pay this much for rims they need to stand out a little.

Hopefully I dont start seeing these rims everywhere, feel unique with them.

As far as the Neo-Gens, I love them. However I dont have much to compare them too. Had stock firestones on before, if you even consider those tires. Horrible. But I like them, What didnt you like about the neo-gens? I havent pushed them too hard yet, I dont want to be harsh on my stock struts. Coilovers arent in the budget right now.
