Some dude in Europe had a silver s2k with some 19's a few years back. If you look around there should be pics. Had a hardtop on it. It actually looked pretty sweet - but then again, I have some riceboy roots :-p

Yeah, the conical lugnuts do indicate it is lugcentric as opposed to hubcentric. But the stock wheels do fit snugly on the hubs... maybe they were trying to just make it that much more sturdy stock?

I would think the ring helps center the wheel when you have bolts like the BMWs, but is of no benefit when you have studs.

Slick Rick, I think you've posted here more than anyone else, and you didn't even compete at SOW, which is the title of this thread

I've been tightening to 95 ft. lbs., same as Porsche and Viper. Is that too much for the Honda?
