One of the nicest Del Sols... I think the owner is selling the rear wing?

That wing would look like dog **** on a sol with no kit. On the other hand it flows real well with the kit on it.

Hi guys, That's actually my car... I sold the wing over the summer on e-bay... It's a wings west wing for the EK hatch... It cost me quite a bit of cash to shave the rear wiper indentation, and mold it (mounting locations) to the trunk lid.... It will fit without modification, but you have some small gaps between the wing, & the trunk lid... I'm super picky, so I spent the extra cash to make it fit correctly.

Well, since the Honda Tuning photo shoot, I have since changed to different wheels. The wheels in that pic were Racing Hart C5 18x7.5 (they weighed alot) with 215/35/18 parada tires... I'm running coilovers, but I estimate that my drop is 2.75 inches... I would not recommend 18's to anyone with a delsol... Personally... I think 16's with a 205/45/16 tire look mint on a sol... I'm currently running 17's, but with a polished lip, so they don't look that big...

I'm running 17x7's with the eibach pto kit 1.5 drop, the rear wheels fit nicely with about a one finger gap but the front still have the 4x4 looking 2 finger gap. I hate coil overs because of the stiff ride but it looks like that's my only choice.

props to you again for a clean sol

Has nothing to do with the design of the coilover, but the springrate. I know off the shelf GCs have a comparable springrate to that of Pro-kits or H&Rs; and if you'd like softer, you can get custom rates for them.

thanks man I'll look into that, I've only heard bad things about coil overs and the only other option I knew of was threaded shocks but those go for over a grand. $299 is well worth having a ride height like that even if I just use them in the front.

Because people use shitty or cheap ones just so they can have a dumped look. GCs are one of the best setups you can buy when mated to a set of Konis.
