Freshly added 8th Gen HFP wheels w/ H&R 25mm spacers in the rears.
To kick off 2016, I decided to treat my baby to a professional detail by Jose at Superior Shine in my area to clean, protect, and fix some major body shop overspray from my previous accident. Such incredible work and the weather was gorgeous after some rain, so I took her out for a quick amateurismo photoshoot at one of my favorite spots... Rose Bowl... ENJOY!!! =)

Thank you. Love the cars you have in your signature btw.

Thanks. Definitely the look I was going for. Subtle and clean.


Wheel sz and offset?
Not sure why, but the first line of the original post should link to the wheel info post, but it's linking to a random thread if you're using the DA app. So here's the info:
-8th Generation Accord HFP Wheels
-19"x8", +55 offset, 29lbs. ea. +/-
-Nitto NT NeoGen 245/35/19
-Lowered on TEIN Street Basis Coilovers

hows the ride with your tein coilovers? great pictures btw, no such think as to many pictures lol
Thanks catcop. Coilovers ride great! Overall ride is a little more rough now with the 19" wheels and spacers, but that was to be expected.

Thanks Catfisha! (Man. Lot of cat-related SNs up in here haha)
Glamour shots for a glamour girl! lol. Gotta post more of that gorgeous OBP!
 
did you install the coilovers yourself? if so when doing the front did you remove the ball joint from the lower control arm, to gain room to remover the strut, im currently having a hard time with the fronts. cant get the ball joint to break loose

I had a professional shop do my install. Try searching and posting in the wheel /suspension section. There are definitely people who have gone through the same thing.
 
i've been looking, seems the over all consensus is that its a pain in the ass. might hit up the honda dealership tomorrow to try and buy the ball joint tool some people say works well.
