Nice. They definitely work well with your car. Now it's time to lower it.

It looks nice! How much did you get them for? IMO, the tires a little bit too beefy and the car should be lowered!

Thanks for the compliments.

Ill get that side shot up soon here.

I the near future im doing Tein advanced street and lowering about an inch.
but I gotta do brakes first! They look the worse, can't believe someone hasn't said something yet.

The wheels are stock size, 17x7, and Im NOT going larger simply bc the price of low profile tires out weight the look!

I paid about $160 per w/ free shipping from discount tire direct. They actually special ordered them bc they weren't shown on their site and I still got them in no time.

the brakes look fine especially if you take care of the rust. a 1" drop would be a waste of your money - you're sitting pretty damn high.

Im thinking about powder coating the calipers black or another color.
The tein coils are adjustible, and I'm plan planning a 3 arm camber for further lowering at a later date.

I haven't heard the word Tenzo R for about 6 years now. I thought they are dead.

How are the P Zero Nero tires? I'm especially curious about the noise level compared to whatever you had before? They're on my list of possibilities for when it's time to replace the Potenzas on my 350Z.

I put P Zero's on my Mazdaspeed 6. Fine for daily driving. Wore well. But I wouldn't call them super grippy. Can't comment on noise as my Speed 6 was a lot quieter then my Accord regardless of if what tires I had on it. Acutally, it was quieter with Winters on then my Accord is with summer on.
