OK just went with the staggered set up this time, the offset isn't all that but its better then before. I went with the Axis Supermesh's now. 8.5 and 9.5. offset are 40 and 45 not all that but i'm happy.
take a look.
my sig shows the old set up. Milano's
And my Favorite.
Please honest opnions.

also which do you prefer, milano's or supermesh's
i think the milano's bring more class then sport while the mesh's obviously bring more sport.
thx guys

its just wierd, this is the first time i went with a sporty mesh type wheel. I'm not used to it. i've always done 5 spoke.
Before!!!!!!!!!
after!!!!!!
here a few of my prelude.
i just like the 5 spoke better. But if you guys think this new set up is better, i must agree.

Great choice!. You can never go wrong with mesh wheels. Their always a classic. Now all you have to do is put in a set of rear spacers (12mm should do it) to brings those buried wheels out to the flanges and you'll be set!

I would do the 15 mm spacers all the way around (with new bolts of course)
That would make your affective offsets:
40mm-15mm = 25mm front
45mm-15mm = 30mm rear
Much better offsets for the Z (probably the offsets Axis should make these rims in, instead of trying to make a "one-size-fits-all" rim)

SangWL,
I have the same setup as yours but mine is in chrome silver with the same rims and springs.
What did you do about the camber adjustement if anything?

Good luck, let me know if you can get it done.

the supermesh looks great and i like the Lude as well when I was 13-15 that was the car i wanted for the longest time but i ended up never getting it but my friend had one for a while, i had an RSX Type S before my Z. I kind of miss the juvenility of hondas, i feel kinda old driving a z but i guess since i am young i should try to be as mature as my car makes me look. Rims look sick, i wonder how a carbon fiber veilside type one kit will look on your black beauty, DOnt get CF for the rear under skirt though, that should be painted. unless its not your taste but by looking at the prelude i thouhgt you might like the lip kit look. THe veilside type one will probably best match those classy rims.

I llike the Supermesh's much better. Good choice. I also agree with the spacer comments. Going 15 all around would definitely make it look way more aggressive. Looks sweet.
