I'll tell you the truth, I hate those wheels

But they look on your car, never seen a car actually pull off those wheels, good job man, car looks mint! no rust?

ya im not a big fan of my own muffler, but funds are low and i had it laying around, and 2.5 inch piping into an oem muffler defeats the purpose so hence why its on there......i honestly dont like the wheels at all on the ep3 civics, but once i put them on my car i loved them......there isnt any rust at all, but i definately need to get out my nicks and dings all over......the rattle can paint has been on for 3 months now and been through many washes and still is on pretty good.....most people dont notice i rattle canned it.....

its not the best in the world, it has started to chip, mostly due to all the wind weve had with a bunch of dirt in the air......but im satisfied for 25 bucks lol

didnt have anything better to do so i resized them for ya.












i know you dont have much fedia, but there should be a macco around that wouldnt charge that much, get a $300 paint job and it would set that EF off. ooks good though, for spray paint can job.

of course it would help with my cornering, but i have a different set of wheels/tires for autocross so its not really a concern.......and my speedo is corrected and was only off by 3mph at 60mph, or so i was told
