Default finally got my new wheels mounted...now I need suspension...

Please forgive the height, I'm still trying to decide suspension. Just picked these up from HT user Lost is Black. Awesome wheels, 15lbs each, but damn nice.

Sorry I forgot to mention, they are the new RB's from Rota. 15x7 all around 30 et. I freakin love'em. I got them new from HT seller Lost is Black, very cool guy to work with.

As far as suspension, I'm not sure, I was thinking Koni's and GC Coilovers for track days, but I'm not really sure I'd utilize the height adjust. So I may just go with the Eibach Pros or Sportlines and Koni Shocks.

And thanks everyone for the kind words, I'm very proud of my little Rex.

Nice wheels. I hope they don't become too popular cuz I have 14" Black Racings and I don't want people mistaking them for rotas

Looks good like that, i know a friend that did that too his crx, definetly looks good but PLEASE for the safety of your crx WATCH OUT for pot holes, bumps, and dips. You might wanna take off the tow hooks in the front since if you hit those as low as your car is, it's gonna bend the **** out of the frame, trust me, I know.

Just to make it clear, the drop above is Photodropped. I haven't done my suspension just yet. But thanks again guys for all the positive response on the wheels. I'll keep you all posted when i do my suspension.

Those look really nice. I want them! But that offset is horrid.
You -really-really- need to have those machined way the expletive down to atleast 38-40.

This is going to murder your handling, kill your bearings and worst of all, there's a good chance it will rub if you decide to lower it.

Lowering on a low offset will only exacerbate the tracking and handling issues on this offset.

Bad bad bad idea!
