Hell yeah. Track wheels should be expendable and replaceable.

Running expensive uber light forged wheels on track is for pro race teams, not working people.

What did you get battle, some 15x8 slips?

i got some RBs with a +35.
they are getting the spoon anodized black treatment at this moment haha

btw, 96EJ6LX, there have been a number of rota-rocking feature cars on Honda Tuning (with the actual wheels on the car during the shoot/spread).
one in particular is soto's green eg from last month's "race issue"
his very first appearance on the mag a couple years back, he was running rota track Rs (CPR replicas) in his feature.

i still dont like rota for many different reasons but if it works for my current needs, hell, why not.
i'll use em but i'm not sold on them.

Ok. I'll be rocking some rota's for a while because I work at a fast food joint and I'm paying for everything on my car. And also gotta get a car that runs. Lol.

Word. I've always had a thing for old panasports but every set I've ever found when I've had the money was 4x114. A set of Rb's would do just fine though...

The simple solution would be to get a ITR 96 spec conversion clearly

Always wanted to see a sedan with a set of Panasport/RB/or Rewinds on it, post some pics up as soon as you get them on.

Well duh

But that kinda defeats the purpose of a set of budget wheels! And the sedan is staying 4x100 for the forseeable future anyway, since it will always spend most of its days on 15" steels w/ 01 civic ex wheel covers.

Nothing out of the norm, grinding as usual. I took a break from my car for a while due to some life issues and made the mistake of driving my dad's 350z for a while. Honestly after that, things weren't looking good for the sedan AT ALL but I got reinspired and have progress to show but I forgot to get my digital camera :/ I still have some interior wiring to do and ill be able to put fluids back in her to start her up again..


I think the thing that I struggle with is that for one, I am no longer a fan of FWD. And cars like that get a completely different level of respect, even in stock form. No one outside of the honda community will know or really care that I have ITR front brakes, retrofitted seats or any of the other things that make the car different than your stock honda civic on hubcaps with a 4" exhaust..

Some shots of my ride. Nothing special. Won't be looking like this for much longer though. Halos are gone. I also bit the bullet and decided to go for a 99-00 conversion with a Type R front lip, Type R grille, clear fogs and black housing oem headlights. Hoping to get it done within a couple weeks or so.

4evr, seems like you're starting to go down the right path. I used to think halos and big rims and my body kit were the shiz not too long ago. I'd also suggest putting some oem tails on as well, they fit with our cars much better than black/chrome. But you have a very clean car to work with! I'm assuming you're going with replica type-r stuff? If so, I would highly suggest to not skimp on the grill, oem grills are so much nicer than replicas...this is my old replica compared to my current Si:
fake:

real:




BTW, has anyone heard back from eBay regarding Battle's images? Here's what I got back from them minutes ago:

Dear Michael,

Thank you for writing eBay in regard to your report for item numbers
170537944338 , 170537944947, 180558728370.

I understand your concern and I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I realize the importance of this issue and look forward to put in my best efforts to assist you.

I reviewed all the information you sent, but I don't have enough evidence to show that the seller violated any eBay policies.

Sometimes members allow others to use their images. It's also possible that the seller got the photo from the same source or from a source we can't verify. In either case, we can't remove the listing.

The only way we can take action in a case like this is if the person who owns the image or text writes to us directly.

If you feel strongly about this issue, I recommend that you contact the content owner and suggest that he or she contact us. Once we hear from the owner, we can respond appropriately.

If you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to reply to this email and let us know.

Sincerely,
Ione D.

eBay Customer Support
