Re: new rims installed now (Mugen Mike)
I agree with Mike, its something different, but what kind of exhaust are you running? It looks huge as hell.
Besides that nice rims, rotors, and klappers

Re: (ek_david)
just that you guys understand that...
the spacers are needed because of front brake. the rims with offset of 50 wont fit without....
but i ll let a friend of mine get 2 mm off from each spacer front. now there is brake clearance 6 mm ... 4 shall be enough or?

you might be joking because of the wink, but if not, they're UKDM 16". btw, the car looks great. center caps will finalize everything, but expect to pay $$$.

Re: new rims installed now (DutchITR1689)
ken....
how can i compare to stock when i just drove a stock r for 20 minutes?
the handling is much better than with the crappy tsw's... and much better acceleration. just weights about 5,2 kg less a rim now....
thats pretty much.

Re: new rims installed now (- Sim -)
Where are you located at in Germany? I might be able to get parts OEM parts cheaper than what they go for here. You can look on Acuraautomotiveparts.com and look at the prices. I have orderd from them in the past and have had good luck. I went to a honda dealer in Nue Isenburg and they wanted to *** rape me. They wanted E60,00 for a distributer cap. And E40,00 for the rotor. I couldn't believe it. I asked for some brake fluid and the guy brought it to me in a pickle jar. The fluid had **** floating in it. You wouldn't expect to see this at a dealership. Hell not even at some backwoods shadetree shop. Getting back to the point The website won't deliver to an Apo so I have to have it shipped to my father in law then he has send it to me. If your interested pm or e-mail me.

Spacers are needed for the spokes on the wheels to clear the brake caliper.
