I've said it before and I'll say it again - where'd the tyres go

They are some huge wheels! Have you noticed a decline in ride quality? There is no way I could run a set of those around here, the potholed roads would kill them in days!

I like your Ricks's emblems.

Wow!!!

I love that double spoke style of wheel. It's the style they've used on the CTR. !9's would be too much for me but they look great!

I think Honda could have been a litle more imaginative with the stock wheels personally.

Looks superb. What is the full wheel model name? Is it on a standard ride height?

Really cool wheels Verone.
Ae you sponsored by Falken perchance, or do you work for them ?

Pesonally I'd hate having to drive around with a large logo on my windscreen and along my door.

Cedric: I used to think that about the stock wheels. But recently Ive really grown to like them.... although if I could have the same stock wheels but in 17's, that would be nice

Hey guys, thanks for the comments. I do not drive with stickers on the front or side of the car. That was a big race that we attended. My car is sponsored by Falken Tires. The wheel is called the MUSE by XENEX. It is a 19inch wheel. I am running the Ziex tire series on there. The car was extremely tail happy with the factory tires, these tires are very very grippy. The ride quality is superb. Better cornering and feel.

Sorry to a pain but is it on a standard ride height. if lowered, how much by? Could you be a bit more specific about the ride qua;ity as over here there are so many potholes that it may be a problem. Im talking about going around corners when theres a few bumps, does react alot worse than the original. etc etc.
