Hey folks,

New member here. Got my 2008 AC 3.5 SE in Red back in Jan. 2011 with 20,000 miles. Signed up on here the same night and I've been lurking around and and asking a few questions since but never posted any pics. Figured everybody knew what a stock AC looked like so no need. But I picked up some wheels a few days back so i figured right now would be a good time. I've done every search possible and looked at basically every relevant thread a zillion times lol.. so im pretty sure what I'd like out of this car looks and performance wise. My last car was an 03 Acura TL. pictured below. it was nice and i modded it a little, but too many things started going wrong as it was getting up in mileage so I figured it was time to switch it up a little. Love the car so far. Although, im not a fan of the CVT unless its in tiptronic mode. lol. Anyway. Pics!

So far: Debadge & Rims.Ruff racing 278 19x8.5 with a whopping 45 offset lol ..(THE GAP IS HIDEOUS) Not exactly what i wanted, but I picked up the rims and tires for 450. So nothing sum spacers and bigger tires wont fix. :bigthumb:

To come: Coil overs unless tein drops these stech springs, tint, and stillen lip kit and accessories, and some Dangeris projectors if i can ever save up the money.

Appreciate any tips. Thanks btw, her names Alanna :laugh:

Yea no prob. My tire size now is 235/35/19. other than the 45 offset and the lack of a drop, i think thats the main reason the gap is so freakishly huge lol.. Im gonna up it to 245/40. But I'll def take those pics when i get a chance. Love your car btw bro.. It was my wallpaper for a week haha

Welcome!

Please don't buy bigger tires to eliminate the gap. Your speedometer and odometer will be off. Drop it, but try to maintain the stock outer diameter of your tires.

Thanks IB, but the bigger tire size is actually gonna be closer to the stock diameter lol. the ones on there right now are actually 25 inches or something like that, If i go up to a 40 profile I'll be good. Thanks tho
