thats funny...i've got bronze now and really want to do white on white...and go from 16" to 15"






oh and gramz, still haven't fully tested out the new tires like I should but I can say that today I drove to work in the rain and they were perfect like driving in perfectly dry weather

 

Funny I wanna go to 15's to 16's with a good offset between 35-25 some BBS's or SSR's.

 

There is a soler that parted out and selling a set of SSR wheels...gunmetal with the polished lip

I saw a set of them in black last night looking through classified and really like them...I think I might have a pic somewhere

 

My friend wants to trade his Black SSRs with a lip but I don't know if 16x8 front and 16x9 rear will fit for a sol lol.

 

16x8 fits great on the front, or rear of my car, def think i could fit a x9

 

anybody know the name of this bumper?

 

That's a Techno-R / Type-M (Mugen Replica) with the foglight holes shaved.

 

i believe its a euro bumper, cant remeber who makes it.. pakifer or something i believe.. not a mugen replica

 

wow, thats some crazy fitment...yes on the 16X8 if its got like a small enough offset (i'm guessing 35 or less) but the 16X9 might be real tough unless its really low...

You could play the spacer game to fix any rubbing you encounter...definitely will be an agressive fitment for sure

 

Ah, yeah, the mouth looks a little less agro than the Mugen ... little hard to tell with the chicken wire in there.

 

X2 on that not being a mugen replica...almost like a mix of mugen and buddy club imo...

plus the aux light holes, even tho some fugen bumpers have them..

 

Well it has the AUX holes, but the Mugen foglight holes are shaved.

 

i remember seeing that style bumper f/s on ebay uk a while back.. its alot smaller then the mugen

 

Ew, why do you want to go to 15s?

I'm wanting to go from 15 to 16s...bad idea?

 

i love this thread<3 read most of it loll i might as well post pics of mine: sorry shitty pics from my phone:





this is what i am starting with, swap done a couple weeks ago but so much more in plan for this car, i have parts laying around the garage havn't put on yet BTW names LEO..filipino...likes long walks on the beach, candlelight dinners loll im jp lol

 

Bingo, we have a winner! It's a euro bumper. The bumper doesn't have a real name, all the companies that sell the bumper give it another name.

A really good scam? I've already made $2k doing this and have been doing it less than 30 days.

 

That was the day we went to Santa Cruz. I don't post many pics of it because I don't have many pics of it. My camera sucks so I don't like to waste my time taking pics with it.

 

got my springs, struts, and lca's in, just need to get them on the car and she will be a roller again. need to change out the steering rack since my p/s rack is garbage. I have a non-p/s rack waiting to go in thats in a good shape. then put some work into the engine bay and I might be able to drive it again by august or september. haha.

koni yellows, h&r race springs, and skunk2 lca's btw. also bought 2 new black door handles, black button maplights, and part of the shift linkage with the u-joint in it since mine was bad.($44 from honda for that part, not bad)

 

jajaja whats the offset on the wheels?

 

What the hell does jajaja mean?

Also on a unrelated matter do I need the bracket the power steering pump bolts up to? I can't really tell if it's part of the motor mount

 

If you want to do 16's, do them properly.

Don't be running any of the newer stock honda rims, the offset is an eye sore.



2009 Honda Fit Sport Wheels, +55 offset

 

Nah, lookin' at a set of c10s right now.

handling differences between 15s / 16s?

I've always heard 16 is the way to go on a sol...anyone have more input on the 15 v 16" wheel?

 

That must rub the inner fender like a bitch. Especially on turns.

 

16" is what I have on my car with a 205/40/16
