I am looking for a neutral setup for rims, pref BBS, but any others will be considered. Does anyone else here run neutral or know of any rims for sale?

lol yep thats john. he's a tool. but its not a swap. the IS' come with a N/A 2jz in them stock. he just has a pretty huge single turbo kit on it... the car is pretty dam fast but its pretty trashed. to me a clean car is better than a tore up fast car. just my opinion lol

Hey guys! My name is Travis Johnson; I own a '01 Acura CL that I am constantly modifying. I met some of you at the Acura/Z/G Meet & Cruise this past summer on August 16, 2009. I enjoy meeting car enthusiasts who love their car as much as I do. I attend the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities. I see a lot of Z's cruisin' around campus. Today on Church St., I saw a black Z convertible and a blue Z coupe with black wheels. Was this any of you?
