Rota P45Rs installed!!!!!

[project-c2]

Latest update!!! Installed 5mm spacers to bring the rims closer to the fender and it fits. No problem. Gonna redo my alignment and put less camber on the front and less caster while I'm at it. So in conclusion. 18 x 9.5 with a 25mm offset will fit under the fender with room to spare. No worries about rock chips. But If I had a 10 in wide rear rim I would use a +30mm offset.

I wanted Hyperblack, but was sold out. Was a toss up between gold w/ polished lip or hypersilver. I went with hyper silver. Maybe later I will paint them Lexus IS gunmetal.

Hurry up get you time attacks. LOL J/K I saw a set on a S2000 that came in for service yesterday. He even had the black anodized Volk lugnuts. : DROOLS : Your truck is cool too, I like the OG Advans too.:top:

The headlights, I will have to declline. Too much work. Took 4 days total and about 450 dollars for parts. But, if you attempt to do it, I can offer advice.:top:

 

[08bLkRuNnR]

where did you buy these from and how much did the set run you?

 

[08bLkRuNnR]

how would a set of 18x9s with 20mm offset look?

 

[Ninja_Taco]

Those are ****in hawt... And I have a civic too so I feel ya on the Rotas

 

[richie_rich]

Good choice in rims, so what if they're Rotas... I'm in the same boat... I have a Civic at home sittin on Volk TE37's, just didn't feel like spending the same amount of money that I spend on the Volks, I could better use the money I saved on something else. I actually ordered my P45Rs about a month ago, just waiting for them to come in. Hope mine fit, I got them in satin black with the red lip in a 18x9.5 +20 offset... got the C2C drop waiting in the garage...

got any more pics of your truck with the spacers on it? Curious to see (and hoping) that mine fit ok with the +20 offset...

pic that I did in photoshop with the same size and offset stolen from the web off of another car just to get a feel for what they'd look like... after seeing yours, I can't wait... =D

Actually the most I would go is +25mm. Sits pretty flush in the rear. I also ordered a set of TRD stickers for the center cap. Found them on ebay. 4.5cm or 45mm. If you reuse your OEM tires, they will strecth the sidewall and look pretty SICK. That photoshop looks good. Where'd you order them from?

 

[richie_rich]

oh well, too late now, they're already on their way here. I got them from a local shop here in Calgary that was doing a Rota buy-in to because a distributor. Yes I am reusing my stock tires, they look good on yours. Did you get any pics after you did the spacers?

I really didn't care for the looks of the projector headlights available on ebay, and wanted HIDs. So I went online and found out about HID projector retrofits. Also RossK35 has done a couple. So I bought a set of Acura TL bixenon projectors (220$), OEM Acura ballasts (260$) and some OSRAM D2S HID bulbs (110$). Basically, you destroy your OEM headlight to install the projectors and aim them. Way brighter than any HID conversion, no glare, and can light up to a 5 story building with the high beam.

Thanks. Aparrently, someone else is buying a set too. black with red lip^^^^^^. Ouch, I bet you felt that boulder into the cab. At least you got a new one for replacement. :top:
