i lost low end power, but noticeable gain after 5000+ rpm, wait for my next experiment before you buy it...

thanks, i didn't like my spoon at first, maybe because i'm not used to 17", now it look better and better & i am so glad i got these rims, i'm actually shopping for brakes now & spoon is the only rims on the market that can fit huge calipers with proper honda offset.

You and your experiments lol... Keep me updated!! Did you decide to not install the H&R springs? I think 17s look great! They give me an idea of what my car will look like once I drop it and install my 17s. Are you just going to do the front brakes, or considering a rear conversion too?

no, i been spending a lot of money buying other things. since it's already lowered & i can out corner si with bc coilovers, i can hold off for now & use the money on things i really want.

How's the Si axle back and resonator delete combo sound? What color are you powder coating the wheels?

It sounds real good. Has a deep sound to it, not too quiet not too loud and has the occasional cakkel to it. Its what I was going for since this car is basically for long road trips and my girl bitches about such things :screwy: nice and quiet at highway speeds but you can hear it if you put your foot in it. Im gonna attempt a video of it hopefully. The wheels are getting coated black. Gloss black with a clear top coat to give it a liquid look. Ill be getting them back around the end of the month Ill post up some pics when I get them back

If you don't mind me asking, how much are you paying to have the wheels powder coated?
