Also I got rid of the power steering because it gave me 25HP. Man I can really feel the power, its like NOS.
























haha. No the rack blew a seal so the belt is off right now and I kind of like it. I might just delete the power steering all together.

I love these wheels. Sweet find.:cheers: Do they come with black centers?

I know, it looks and feels way lower that 2.25. the mudflaps are about 2 inches off the ground.

The wheels are sweet but so expensive. they are $450 each new. Im gonna go with the "style" ones that are like $450 for all 4.

not so much when i got in it but when i got out. i put my foot on the ground and was like, damn this is low.

im looking into 15" wheels. im also keeping an eye out for a cheap set of old honda wheels. no style in particular but the old mesh wheels look sweet.

I was thinking of getting a set of those for my 2g they look great on the older cars. those sre replica wheels and a couple of companies sell em. Drag has one (DR20)

that runs about $300 for all four on ebay. I like those but decided to go with DR16 lightweight

I saw them on ebay... but what I was saying is that those are the exact company I was thinking of getting.

The drags are nice too.

I also found these which are sweet.

Yea i seen that, after the fact lol, my bad. So WORK Equip is the original manfacturers of that wheel i guess? Yea i would go with the cheaper ones too.
whats the offset on those ZR wheels!? seems a lot deeper that the others
