What do you all think? Pics make the spokes look black but they are actually gunmetal and a near perfect match the fm!

Next up; Springs!!

Looks good, but I'm sorry to say that you will not be "Nebster Approved".
(It's a joke... you'll see.)

Yeah, I was looking into the h-techs. I want something subtle because the way I park I feel like my front bumper would be gone in a week. Home much does a spring install generally run?

I was going to get those before getting the wheels I did, but I wanted 17's and I seen what those looked like in 17's and it just seemed too small.

Those are awesome looking though. Congrats on a nice, cheap wheel that does the car justice.

Also the stubbys are usually for sale in the PPC section under Exterior/Styling. Also the Honda dealership sells Element & S2000 antennas which are popular items for tC's.

yeah, basically i narrowed my search down to a gunmetal mesh with polished lip and "bolts". I was looking real hard at some fliks http://edgeracing.com/images/wheel/flik_wasp_(gunmetal)_front_zoom.jpg

i was really loving the azul speedmesh http://www.wheelfire.com/scontent/Wh...733&CheckFit=1 especially the big lip but i after seeing some more pics it seemed like the "gunmetal" was too light and would not be a good match. So I settled on these locally. What wheels did you end up getting?

Those Azul's are pretty nice looking. My first set of wheels were Fliks, but I got the Arctics. In black, they looked alright.

I ended up getting Raze R74s in gunmetal (which also matches real well to FM) but i've been wanting to paint the lip.

Got a pic if you're interested. I need some spacers pretty bad. Terrible offset IMO

Drop should have been the first mod IMO... But now that you have wheels, drop the bish.

Just go to your local honda dealer and buy an s2000 antenna.
