Is that $2000 with or without tires? (I'm assuming without)

Is the car lowered in the picture? I remember a past post stating it was dumped using Neuspeed springs.

Nice wheels. Gives the car that conceptual look. Concept car drawings always have oversized wheels and miniscule sidewall tires. This gives the car that it jumped right out of a concept drawing to form.

If you guys think the pic is nice you will be blown away by what they look like in person. I had the luck of running with KUNI through the canyons a couple of weeks ago (mind you with about 13 other S2K's ) they look incredible.
But of course, that is for us rice heads never really did understand that term. kinda derrogatory if you ask me.
arent those race cars i see on speedvision running 19's? on an accord? yeah, i thought so.

KUNI, your car is beautiful

Not real roads huh? as oppossed to what, virtual roads? okay fine, so its a race track, my point was the comment made about performance degredation. My point is that the race cars run on 19's.

docofmind,

What PDX S2000 is trying to say is that the road courses the super touring Accords you see running on are near perfect condition. Super Touring cars use 19's because sometimes it is a requirement.

Not having any sidewall is bad when the road is bumpy, especially when you are taking a turn.
