those jdm fogs have no covers?
yeah. I took em off. Ended up taking the fogs off too cuz i took a rock hit to the passenger side one that completely shattered the lens. I replaced them with aftermarkets as seen in the after photo.

I hear ya. Thats why i went with the s.techs. They're guaranteed not to sag more than 4mm from spec. I'm just not patient enough to have to slow down and creep sideways over speed bumps and stuff. And the enterance to my work parkinglot is hideous. I see/hear people bottom out the nose of their car all the time when they're pulling in.. so i didnt wanna slam my car and deal with that. I dont wanna have to repaint my lip all the time due to scraping the shiznit out of it. lol

lol, 17's are kind of big IMO, but you can corner hard on anything. lol.

Most cars are comming stock with 17's now, can't really bash them too hard.

Well, they also have larger wheel bases so that the larger wheels can fit. You can actually put 19s on an RSX, but I think 18 should be the largest size. Same with the integra, 17 should be the largest.

I agree that anything larger than a 17" rim does not look good on a teg, but I think 17" look fine. Maybe i'm just used to it. I am going to be downsizing to 16" eventually, though. I'm getting tired of the rougher ride quality.

And if you havent experienced it.. hard cornering in a teg with 17s feels way more stable than when doing the same on stock 15s.

guess i dont get the joke.. care to expand on that?
yea...im saying i dont car what anyone says.....if you upsize the wheel on anycar....its not gonna improve handling...i mean your upping your wheel size by 2 inches.....depending on tires size...i would say on average thats still a good 1 to 1.5 inches taller than you should be........easier said........a taller car cannot out handle a lower car.....unless....the car is below its lowing point....now personally i would love to go lower....but them it would bind up even more when cornering hard......so stock size wheels......maybe a little wider......FTW!!!

there is no way stechs are a 2.5" drop if you still have a 2 finger gap in front

on h&r sports i had almost no gap on 17s
