Hey guys, new to this forum. But I thought I'd share my new ride :D First off, my previous car was 1990 EF hatch that got sent to the wrecker :( but I picked this car up a day later. I've had it for about 2 weeks, and haven't done much, but next pay cheque I'm ordering more parts =)

1997 Honda Civic CX
B16A2 swap from a 2000 EM1
Lowered on H&R springs
New black paint with diamond flake



Things I've done so far:
15" Volk TE37 replicas with Kumho Ecsta tires
B&M short shifter
Broadway 270mm mirror
Type R rear lip
Stereo/wired sub
Purple dress up bolts
Side skirts (OEM)
Grill (OEM)
3rd brake light spoiler w/ tinted light



Parts on order:
Skunk2 sport struts
Gauge cluster w/tach
Mugen front lip













Parts :D

I feel you there. Honestly, the people who buy $1000 econoboxes and then spend $2000 on rims.... no better than the homies '89 impala on 24" chrome wheels.

Replicas CAN be prone to cracking, but unless your a horrible driver, purposely hit pot holes, or clear entire rivers via a rising drawbridge, I wouldn't worry. Good deal on those too. :thumbs up

Most dont have 2 grand to spens on wheels....I bought $500 real wheels that are reputable, lightweight, and bbk friendly. Real doesn't always mean tons of money.

No hate on my part, I just posted my opinion and I think deandre jordan's face is funny as hell

I had real rims on my last car, but I got these for the price. And they seem like pretty decent wheels so far, so I'm not complaining :P
