very nice car and setup, but u should have went with a lil lower offsets, u could use spacers in the front. those rims look hot
Thanks for all the compliments guys, I appreciate them! I was surprised to find out the Progressiv TE's were discontinued also.
Regarding the offsets, the front wheels are turned a little so I think it is giving the wrong view on how the offset looks when the wheels are straight. I will try to take some pics with the wheels straightened out.
Are those the H&R Sport springs that lower 1.4/1.3 (f/r)? Looks like the drop is almost perfectly even!
Have you noticed any settling with the springs? I like the drop of the H&R, but I'm worried about it being too much once they settle...
They are the 1.4/1.3. I got the H&R's from Tirerack with a wholesale account (although not listed on the website yet).
There hasn't been any settling on any of the H&R's that I've run. One big misconception is that aftermarket springs last forever. They don't. Just like OEM springs, their useful life is probably 30k-40k miles and they should be replaced then (along with shocks). I would not expect any significant drop until after 30k miles.
Hmm... i understand the look your tryin to get... but when i look at your car, my eyes keep going back to the face1 like, this doesnt belong here. BUT hey, if you like the look thats all that matters

I do like the look, it gives depth to the rear wheels without dish.
I actually had to go this route. The Progressiv TE's in the correct widths and offsets were only offered with the Face 1 for the fronts and the Face 2 for the rears.
I was actually not happy with the rear TE-37's on the NSX not having the concave look (you can only get it on 10" rears or something).

Huh, you should replace your springs at 30-40k miles??
I've never heard this before. I doubt people actually do that.

Very few people do this but it is at that about that mileage where the spring performance begins degrading (whether it is OEM or aftermarket). Most people don't notice it because it is gradual. Once the springs are replaced, the effect is very noticable.
