i think a lil more neg camber and if the car was a little lower and should look alot better, but i like those wheels

 

balling wheels love em......slam the car a lil bit more to fit more flush.....nioceeeeee!

 

damn **** looks dope son!

 

The wheel fitmet is absolutely hideous, and the tires streeeeeetching over them...retarded. Looks like it needs hydro's and a chain steering wheel

 

get an oem lip

 

there is right way to rock low offset wheels and a wrong way. this is obviously the wrong way.

i think he has one ready to go on.

he said it was lower with lots of camber looked good but wasnt to practical for a DD

 

im actually gettin carbon/kevlar front, rear and sides this fall. im takin the car off the road for Kswap and ITBs.

dont like the low offsets? eh too bad im glad im drivin it and not u then...saves you a head ache and alot of stares. some people can grasp it others cant. to each their own.

 

, those wheels are insane!
but I just don't think the flow well with that year model civic, and like mentioned before some negative camber and dumpness wouldn't hurt it

 

my sub frame is literally 2 1/4" off the ground. where i live driving this thing is a nightmare already. anymore and the car would pull itself over and make me walk lol. i love the wheels and on top of the look they are real WORK JDM goodness

 

[freak] haters I LOVE IT! LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT. [freak]in wow.

 

lil more camber and dumpage and itll be sick as fawk

yeah man, always wanted a set of those ewings for my da9, but got staggered cv pros instead, as those works are very hard to come by, no matter what, the car still looks good, but could look so much better.

see this is how low offset is pulled off on hondas.

 

^^^

older model hondas + low offset =

 

all fine and good but thats a easily achieved feat when u have double wishbone. i on the other hand I'm as low as you can go w/o bottoming out the lower suspension in the subframe on my macpherson setup. there arenet many lower EM2's around if any. except air (which is pointless IMO) and if u find one id like to see a tape measure comparison to mine 2 1/4" to subframe...lil less to the subframe bolts. im at a happy medium

 

^^^^hmm, you do have a point, forgot about newer civics and their mcpherson and multilink rear ftl....atleast take off the pinstripe.

oh well, as I said before, car looks good anyow, much props, if you ever decide to let those wheels go let a brotha know!

 

doooop

 

Sorry, but that looks awful.

It reminds me of those idiots who put the wrong *** wheels (i.e. for a RWD car) on their Hondas and then dump it to the ground on cut springs/stock shocks so their camber is all [freak]ed up and it surely rides like ****. Not to mention that it's really ugly

But these are purpose built with aftermarket suspension and performance wheels to have that certain 'look', and I'm sure they accept what crazy camber and riding millimeters off the ground does to the car. And of course, they like it. So I'm a little conflicted on what to think.

except this car has an 04-05 ep3 brakes and suspension... dropped custom progress coilovers with custom spring rates and different valves.

Ignore them, bud. When I had my sub-frame at less than inch, I couldn't get in my driveway (which has no curb).

 

Ballin shots frank, nice car!

oh, your car is sick man. I dig the way it looks I was referring to the slammed hatch and Integras above...

 

Looks good but you need some neg camber on them wheels, stretched tires look gay with wheel gaps
