I just purcahsed some new alloys!

Hey all I wanted to show off my new sexy alloys! I really love them.

I do wish they were back to factory standard but the sparkle silver isn't too bad right? Anyhow it will definitely lift my car I am sure, every time I look at it now I get so upset at the little 15" stock alloys on it lol.

Do you think in the future it would be possible to have the powder coat stripped off and have them diamond cut and polished back up again? The guy I bought them from said they were anthracite before being sparkle silver, but they look to be in perfect condition, though I'm never going to really know until I get them stripped back down right?



Here is my first ever car, I'm 32 years old. I only wish I did this sooner, it feels great to be a part of this community and it is nice to work on and wash the car every weekend, a new hobby indeed!









Currently I added the Heko deflectors on the back windows, I didn't like the front ones, I'm still not sure on the back ones being on I think it alters the nice lines of the car if I am being honest, I added new brake discs and pads, changed the anti roll bar drop links all around, added the Sony XAVAX100 and fascia for BT calling, Spotify and Waze, the Brodit iPhone holder and new cleaner plates.

I would like to lower the car about 25-30mm after my new wheels are on next weekend and also some fog lights / switch and a rear camera for the new Sony unit and maybe tint the back windows but I think it might be impossible with the light in the back window?

Lovely, I ran these wheels on my Accord when I had one and my brother has a set on his CL7 EuroR.

You need a specialist with access to a lathe and diamond cutting tools. It's around £70 a wheel but there are places that can do it.

If I recall correctly a company called pristine wheels in Milton Keynes used to do them

That'll look great. Nice one dude!

Nice wheels, but your going to need a bit of a drop or else it's going to have the "on stilts look". These really suit the 7th gen.
Avoid the potholes !

Nice wheels them. With regards to diamond cut finish I'm sure a company in Manchester does it too if that's closer

threads on wheels don't often interest me, but those do look very good

Those wheels look very nice, hard to beat the genuine Enkei wheels for quality.

Looks fantastic

Thanks!

Though I made an amateur mistake and snapped the last locking lug nut off so bye bye mint alloy.

How much did you pay out if interest? I have a set of these i'm thinking of selling but no idea what to price them at.

Cheers!

I paid £600 for mine with them being fully refurb'd, is that expensive? No tyres fyi.

You could have bought a brand new set for 600 not sure if same brand but a new set of alloys definitely.

They look like the same alloys as mine, i could do with a recon tho lol £200 for all 4 recon'd

Nice wheels, suspension drop is a must though.

@DJSR, not the same wheel, 19" Rage Type R rims if I'm correct.

Yeah that is right Mr Honda!

Finally got them on with new Nankang NS-20's, tyre dressing really makes them pop! Also wired in some fog lights, just need to change them bulbs now to white. \o/

When I had to remove the bumper to fit the new bulbs, hid kit and fog lights, I had real trouble getting the right side to pop off, upon closer inspection I noticed a very slight bump, the person who had the car before me must of had a bump because I had to punch a hole through the bumper (square bit of tape on the pic,) someone had ****** put a screw into the chassis behind!!! So yeah I have to pay £140 now to have that filled and painted again along with a slight crack, I can notice now where it was resprayed back over the screw up-to the number plate, if you look closely there is a line near the number-plate bracket where he went up-to.

Next up is a rear spoiler, lug nuts and new coilovers!

Very nice

Looking good

just watch those pot holes buddy! Thats what i dont like about low profile tyres, hit one ditch and it'll burst that tyre and damage the alloy, otherwise looking very nice, enjoy it!

Don't worry about that too much, I've hit damn near everything on 19's with 35 profiles and they've been fine.
