LOL I've gotten bends in wheels with wider and thicker tires. That setup's asking for it.

The XXR's look a lot better than the Advans. Not a fan of the tire stretch, though. I think it would look better with some meatier tires.

The XXR's DO look better than the Advans. I don't see why people care if the wheels are "real" or not. Who cares about the brand. If you like em, you like em.

everyone says how unsafe a stretched tire is, myself included when i was a little younger and more naive, but ive never seen proof!....i personally know of tons of people who daily with that much stretch and never have problems. beating on their cars and highway speeds as well.....WHERES THE PROOF?

Car looks dumb as hell. Sell it and get a Sebring, let someone else enjoy the S2K for what it was designed to do.

Not feeling it, but props to you for building your car the way you wanted and not letting anyone try to change your mind.

Also x2 on un-safeness, but that's the chances you take.

ok, tell me in your infinite wisdom what was it designed to do?....because im pretty sure whenever honda designed it, it was to sell them and make money. not sure what you think the intended use is other than to drive it, which is exactly what its still capable of doing with the xxr's

It was designed to be driven hard... raced on road courses

Not slammed on cheap suspensions and driven on improperly installed/sized tires... those mods go directly against all the research and development Honda invested into the chassis

It would be like "stancing" an F1 car. The S2K is not something cheap or disposable like a Civic. Its special and representative of the best Honda has to offer. So when people throw these third world parts on solely in the name of aesthetics I have to question it

This stance **** is getting out of hand
