Hi Beckie.

As for wheels the world is your oyster really and it is whatever floats your boat.

This thread on the TSX forum may help you decide. http://www.tsxclub.com/forums/1st-gen-wheels/34325-wheel-gallery-1st-gen-pics-specs-only.html


For suspension you have pretty much a straight choice between Eibach (30-35mm drop) or Apex (35-40mm drop). Both have had good feedback from forum members and wont be a whole lot different in ride quality from standard springs. These are also the cheapest option.

Then you have coilovers which will give a bigger drop but things start getting expensive.

As for the lip spoiler i would stick to genuine Honda for the front of the car as its ABS plastic and wont crack if you hit a curb etc.


To give you an idea here is a photo of my car which has 18" wheels and is lowered on Apex springs. And also has a Honda Type S front spoiler.


This also gives me a fine opportunity for a bit of picture whoring.

that's handy then. that's a 30 quid ebay boot lip spoiler on the back of my car.

that tyre size is correct for 17s

225/40/18 for 18 inch wheels.

225/35/19 for 19 inch wheels.

Becks get some wheels, them standard wheels look awful. The wheels you have chosen I think will look very nice indeed.
