Quote added to existing post so thread is not cluttered with off topic posts.


they (wheels) are from a bmw i have four of them i got from the junkyard for 150 with one decent tire lol. i'm sanding and painting mine to match my crx search google with this exact quote

"honda-tech bottlecaps"

you'll see how awesome they are. especially on an older car like the 3g.

I been considering painting my BMW bottlecaps but wasn't sure how it'd look. Now that I've seen that thread on honda-tech I've been inspired.

right now i have a completly rebuilt factory setup,with mostly moog parts, including urthane lower arm bushings,and radius rod bushings,also rebuilt brakes and arp fasteners and wheel studs. i also made my own sway bar link bushings out of urthane. and an lxi factory sway bar on the rear. i found the center section at a junkyard, and had to order the rest of it. bolts on it are also arp. still need to get thge alignment done though after putting in the new rack and tie rod ends. the wishbones were stripped to bare metal,and epoxied then painted.

I like the way that car looks Bones

Those wheels kind of look like 300 series bmw

My suspension, bone stock other than 40 offset wheels 15 inch. .. it needs a lot in that area but I dont throw the car around that much. I plan on a set up pretty much like Ghettogeddy shows
