Update: Wash + 18s + Eibach Pro-kit = Photoshoot 7/20/07

shukes24 · 07-20-2007, 07:38 PM

Posted some teaser pics before, here's the finished product...

2007 Si Sedan w/ 18" Weds Sport TC005 wrapped in 225/40/18 Kumho MXs dropped on Eibach Pro-kit

The drop IMO is perfect...not too slammed and fills in the wheel gaps perfectly. No rubbing (although I have not had people in the car) and the ride is quite nice. Noticeably flatter through the turns and only the ever slight bounciness. Only other mod I may do is an HFP axle-back muffler.

looks good
i highly recomend the hfp axel back
what body kit is that?

anavrin351 · 07-20-2007, 07:44 PM

i like it. Its hard to find wheels for the Sedan that look good, but those work.

You should also take off the dealer plate frame. Its the easiest thing to do that will clean it up alot

prefect drop! now you just need the hfp lip kit!

those wheels match that car perfectly

mattsbobo · 07-20-2007, 07:51 PM

Soooooo....ummmmmmm, when are you going to powdercoat those rims white, and send them to me? That would be the friendly thing to do

FB Si · 07-20-2007, 07:52 PM

Car looks great. How much drop did you get with that kit?

firstsi · 07-20-2007, 07:53 PM

pro kits drop 1'' in the front and 1.2'' in the rear. migth settle a bit more on the fa5 since the springs were meant to be used on the fg's and there is a weight difference and im not sure if this plays a factor but the wheel base is a bit wider too.

Wheels look effin sick on GG!

Nice photos, looks like you got a good copy of the sigma mine is a bit soft on the corners but I still like it just wish it was sharper.

shukes24 · 07-20-2007, 08:13 PM

rippars: probably won't get a lip on it unless i can get a smokin' deal on one. i do a lot of miles (20k/yr) so it'd just get scratched up and the chicago winter's aren't the nicest either. i do agree it would look sweet though

mattsbobo: let me think about it....ummm....no

Rpm2: thanks, i agree, i wish it were a bit sharper, but i couldn't beat the price for an ultra wide-angle lens. my everyday use is a 28-135 and i absolutely love it!

***kpSTI*** · 07-20-2007, 08:16 PM

Your car is absolutely beautiful!!! And if you put a lip kit on it, just do the front one only and fog lights!!! And how much and where did you get those from???

06RREX · 07-20-2007, 08:17 PM

Car looks awesome! I-NTEC has those wheels on his Si; I saw them at the last meet and fell in love with them. They look INCREDIBLE on our cars. Even better in person! nice ride man! How does your pro-kit ride??

SiRyan · 07-20-2007, 08:31 PM

Sooo Clean bro! Love the rims. Now get the Lip.

fastertyper · 07-20-2007, 08:59 PM

wheels looks sick on that car...color fits sooo well

Englishe30 · 07-20-2007, 09:24 PM

I likey....seeing a nice gg reminds me of my last 06 civic lx coupe...nice pics

***jpik2003*** · 07-20-2007, 09:27 PM

Car looks good. You camera is good. Wheels look good.

Wonder why firstsi thinks you have a bodykit.... is he seeing different pictures?
