ghettoryde, i was skeptical about 16's too. i've never had wheels this big but i really like them. fills out the wheel wells perfectly.
and as for plans, idk to be honest. i have almost every possible suspension component already and the motor runs great and gets awesome gas mileage. i recently coverted my a/c as well so it is a perfect dd. since i'm approaching 200k i'm thinking of freshening up an sohc vtec motor to throw in when my old d15b2 finally kicks the bucket(if it ever does lol..) i really want an SiR front and maybe a nice exhaust one of these days. i really need to get a rear toe kit so i can go lower without running out of toe in the rear(i'm maxed at my height now and don't feel like ruining my new falkens hah)
90shuttle - i always wanted a set of widened rt's, they look so damn awesome.
re*done - got lucky and found them on ebay for way too much money lol. some guy that sells sought after parts in japan(he has lots of other shuttle things too)
thanks for the kind words everybody, its not often that people even acknowledge my car so it makes me happy to hear people actually like it lol
offset is +20. i have 2.5 degrees negative camber in the rear and 1.8 negative in the front. gonna pull the front in a bit and go another inch lower as soon as i get my new rta bushings and toe kit installed
I was originally thinking 15's for my car, but this may have changed my mind. I don't want to have to have it super slammed, and this thing looks really really good.
car looks good. Im tossing up between 16x8 +20 or x9 +15 . could you please post up some closer pics of the wheels and maybe one front the side at the back? just want a better idea of the poke and so on
im sorry ive been slacking with pics! recently left my acura dealership for honda and i've been super busy with work. as you can see i have some new goodies!
also just bought a gen1 odyssey so stay tuned for that..
I just purchased my first wagon a few days ago and have been heavily debating on which wheels to purchase, my original thought was 15x8 but after seeing your wagon with 16x8 really has me torn on which size to go with!
Your wagon looks amazing by the way! Love the oem visors and hood bra
oh and the wheels are 15x8 +12 all the way around with nexen 175/50's. i should mention that it took diamond racing almost 6 months to make these wheels... hopefully others will have a better turnaround than i did. they came out excellent though, so i guess i dont care haha.

But i need to roll fenders and widen my rt's while all that other stuff is happening.
Im trying to figure out what else ia want to do while shes stripped down...
Love the stance and subtle touches (IMO, its the small stuff that makes a car stand apart from the crowd).
Well done sir.
