Online tires I think. I'm glad i reused my 205's, I was a little unsure about the 195's.
I did swap out my wheels yesterday. The Works are off for the winter.
Here's a picture of the current state of the coupe


Short stems installed

Right after the last wheel was put on



They are a less tighter fit than the Works. I was thinking about getting some spacers to fill up the gap.

The profile of the tire could have told you that. You have a shorter sidewall and increased camber due to the stretch. Instead of spacers, you should correct camber to fill up the space.

So I installed the new retrofitted projectors. I have gotten the city lights or auto adjusts wired in yet. Got the old out to pay a friend for the turbo install. And on the turbo note I installed the FMIC and I hope I will get more done. I'll post up pics in a little bit!

As promised some pictures!
I started to take pictures of the process of retrofitting but like usual I got too into the work lol
First: I AM SORRY CHILD
Split the lens from the case

Where the auto unit connects for anyone who was curious

Take the bulb holder then remove retaining clip and glare shield and reinstall



And then by magic it puts its self back together with the new projector! lol

Here they are installed along with the FMIC

And where I am going to drill the hole for the piping

Here's the catch can setup

Pics of the cutoff? Quick question. You wouldn't know if Honda sells the plastic adjuster tabs? Mine are so worn I can't adjust my cutoff.

Thanks fellas!

Not yet. I had other things come up after the install. When I get it back from the exhaust place I may try to adjust everything and take the pics then. I don't think they do but don't quote me on it!

Also I dropped off the old VC to get the fittings welded on.
