Joe W Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 I feel like I haven't been on here in forever, because I haven't and just wanted to let everyone know I'm still around. With my new job I haven't had time and I'm still lacking Internet, except my phone. Anyway I still have both rexes: Red one is still dd, except now with wheels and 89 f bumper again. White one has been stripped almost completely for the project to begin... EDIT: If this already posted my bad it's the neg of using a phone for posting. Oh and I'll poss be able to upload some pics later today for the "Pics or Ban Nazis" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe W Posted September 13, 2009 Author Share Posted September 13, 2009 Thanks guys, I like em a lot. I was worried they may not fit, waiting 2 weeks for them to get here. Luckily some minor work and low offset works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe W Posted September 14, 2009 Author Share Posted September 14, 2009 Yep, I actually got a little break on them because the ones I originally ordered were on backorder from manufacturer with no future eta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe W Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 Proving that I still fail here is a 4month revival of my own dead thread, haha! A few changes to the rex: OTS GC coilovers (all I can say is these things are STIFF, running blues now may try illuminas), skunk2 camber kits f/r, some red no name rear lcas, and bought a new oem si exhaust and painted it black. That's it for now, next up is a swap of the dx motor for a zc I've had sitting around, cause the stocker is really tired. After that gonna take her to a body shop for an external restoration. Then saving for my project JHMED8-K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeryon Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 I like them as well. Would look excellent on the sedan I think... You are in desperate need of mud flaps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe W Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 I know I've wanted a 4g civic sedan for while just for that reason, hard to find a clean 5spd one though :(. As for the mud flaps if I could find a set I'd def get them... I know I've wanted a 4g civic sedan for while just for that reason, hard to find a clean 5spd one though :(.

SIR_VTEC Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Um whats wrong with your passender fender? It looks like it was all chewed up above the wheel...was it rubbing that bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pballer2005 Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 i still don't get u guys. those wheels don't even fit on the car, they stick out past the fender and look goofy. no offense OP, i like the wheels, just make them smaller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lceah Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 IMO, stick out past the fender is better... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeryon Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 I kind of like when the wheel is a shade too wide to fit inside the wheel well with normal camber. My car is tucked, although not by choice. It is tucked only because I couldn't afford wheels that fit how I wanted them to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe W Posted December 12, 2009 Author Share Posted December 12, 2009 No the pass fender is just rough shape, paint faded then was starting to peel so I sanded a bit and hand painted to prevent rust until I finish saving for bodywork and paint. Pballer I agree on wheels sticking out past fenders, that's why I got the ground controls n camber kit and slammed it, wheels tuck nice and flush now with no rubbing. I understand there is no performance value with the amount of neg camber, but I love the look. If someone wanted to buy them for about 500 right now I'd sell them just for that reason. Performance > Looks but for now it's what I rock . Btw wheel specs are only 15x7 but with 10mm offset. 35mm is where I'll go next prob with some RPF1 my fav rim ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
