I feel I made a good decision, I love these wheels dearly and have wanted them in a 17x9 for the longest time:

:biggrin:
Please post pics when they are installed. Blonde question, but what kind are they? lol
?
Sweet. Put up pics ASAP.
Rota Grids - Hyper Black - 17x9 +32 up front, +37 in rear. Tires are 245/40/17. Hellafunctional, but also flush.

Close up, not cell phone pics, lol
My cell phone has the best camera I own lol
hahaha. Those look great although I tease the shit outta my buddy who put a set of Rota's on his skyline. Just curious, why the different off-set from front to rear, and what is your stock offset? Is it the same as the RSX? I think mine if +40....
Any better traction noticed with the wider tires and rims?
Thanks man, none of my friends busted my balls yet about them being Rotas. A few online buddies did though, and a huge bashing on 8thcivic. But then again, compare those kids Si's to mine - HUGE difference. Haters gonna hate :biggrin:Quote:

Yea, definitely better traction. My old wheels were 17x8.5 so this is pretty much the same setup, same tires anyway. I need more power though, this little GT2871R sucks bawls.Quote:

Rather then spend 3500 on new wheels, ill take the grids and throw the extra money back into the motor. Haters gonna hate until you pass them
Ooo that's a good one. Lol. I like it.Quote:

I used the same tires from my previous 17x8.5 setup, works perfect. 245/40 is a dope tire, just need something stickier but I'm pressed for cash :flush: And I don't believe these are the offroad edition, but I'm not fully sure.Quote:

Oh no. Lol. Must put up a scare vid please. Lol
+1 on the scare vid :giggle:
video! jesus 139db horn haha, should go buy a train horn, drive by a big group of girls running and make them scream ;)
I was just looking at the rota grid offroad (0 offset) and priced them out. fairly cheap. When you're boosted, some cant afford to buy $$$$ rims anymore ;)
but yes, videos of the horn.
sick
