Paapii, what were your rim/tire specs on the TE's?



car is on point man. Looks amazing.

Since youve got some experience with fitment, Im probably going to end up getting some 17x8.5 +35s, and want to run either a 225/45 or a 235/40, probably with a 1.5" drop. nothing too low, as our roads are literally the worst in Canada. you think there would be any fitment issues? I want to keep a meaty, aggressive look, nothing flush, just ever so slightly tucked.

like this, but maybe a bit higher.

anybody know the wheel/tire spec of this setup?

Thx for the link, I looked though that and many more. What I found out was, no one has coloured lugs made of steel and that the only way to get them in colours would be to have them powder-coated, which I didn't like for two reasons; #1- I don't want paint between the lug and wheel; #2- I figured they might chip under 80 lbs. of torque after a few times of uninstalling,etc.

I didn't want aluminum lugs due to all the warnings against using them, Which I agree with.

I did find an alternative that I'm going to give a try. Here is a link for anyone that might want to follow suit

18x7.5 et47 work emotion 11R in gloss white + matte black lugs + matte black ITM tpms valve stem

no hub centric rings, no vibration, no steering wheel shakes, no problem....

this is why i buy made in japan

tires are 225/40-18 falken 512 all-season, do have some radius pull, but overall, it's pretty quite, not sure about the performance because LX automatic is really slow, not even gonna bother to drive fast....

just a quick note, falken 512 is a very light tires, i was so stun when i pick it up, it felt like i'm picking up a 16" tires

for those light-weight conscious freaks.. you might wanna look into the 512's, did i mention it only cost me $348 (set of 4) include tax & shipping from discount tires ??

no it's not.... lol, webby is the first to notice the door handles, i swap the mirror & the door handles from a dx

most of my cars from the past have black handles and black mirrors, it's just my thing...
