    New Wheels

    these are my new 17's. I got them from a vendor at NOPI! Guess what?, they were only 35 a wheel! The 17x7.5(215 50r17) wheels forced me to raise the ass end of the accord 1in! the 15's are going on the saturn as soon as i get them powder coated!

    They look like 15's with the bigger tire size you went with.

    you should use a 40 series.....

    is that the bottom half of a stock bumper turned upside down? i love it. and i like that tire size too, more than a 40 series.

    Dude, that looks sweet! Get your speedo recalibrated if you care, because it looks awesome with the big tires.
    Good bye to the 1989 DX Type R. Hello 2001 LX.

    the wheels are made by American Racing! They've been discontinued for a while and i was amazed i found another set! They look like 17's in real life, trust me, thats all i hear!

    The bumper is the bottom half of a 91 civ hatch bumper! I never thought about using a stock accord bumper!

    NISSAN UPDATE: Its almost ready for its new heart! Will be running by NOV 1
