Like everyone said, do something about the rims, the spacers wont help and you will also need extended studs. TBH those rims remind me of some stale nachos. Better off selling those rims to some guy with a civic.

As far as the mods u listed...what are u after? We have no idea.

I'm gonna make a guess for you tho. That guess is that you are new to ALL this. In that case, Z being a sports car I will recommend the following. This is what I would do if i had just gotten a Z:

1. New pads(axxis ultimates/hawk hps) and fluid(super blue)...because nothing is more important than braking. Good brakes are not only safe, but fun because you are more relaxed and concentrating on the driving experience.

2. Good rubber, on stock rims. tirerack.com for reviews...or some wheels with taste if you can afford it. But don't go with rims over coilovers if u cant afford both.

3. Coilovers


I had borla true dual exhaust and i sold it actually, and im enjoying the stock one. Exhaust is just not a good bang for the buck mod when u compare it to c/o. You will hear exhaust note 5%-10% of time whilst you enjoy a good supple suspension 100% of the time.

Not exactly sure what Kiriller's problem is. I'm actually a fan of the mesh wheels. His looks similar to BBS or even the Enkei.

As far as civic wheels, I bet there is a civic driver out there pimping out the same Axis Hiro wheels you have Kiriller. You can put almost any wheel from Z onto a civic. You know how many civics are out there running on Volk TE37s?

i wasnt talking about the style of the rims, the rims you posted which are similar to his are great looking, him being tasteless, and him getting civic offsets is what im all about.

This one has no stickers. I just googled it:
http://www.hondatuningmagazine.com/f.../photo_17.html

I know thats not nearly as pretty as on the Z but point is, I do see some civics with better rims than most. And I didn't agree that just because one thinks a rim looks cheap, its from a civic. But thats not what he meant anyways...

I agree, why is it that if someone doesnt have $4000 wheels or they think yours are ugly that they feel that a nasty remark needs to be made. If you dont like something about the next guys car, so effin what, chances are nobody asked your opinion anyway, so all haters shut the f up
