what's up acurazine! been lurking for quite some time and finally motivated myself to say hi! Located in South Florida, I've been in the car scene for quite a handful of years, starting with a CB Accord, then on to a CD Accord, and now my current. Previous build:

Car's an auto '01 Cl-S, and since purchase (2mo or so), it's gone through some MAJOR changes! Upon the start of changes, some delightful discoveries were made. Car came equipped with Eibach lowering springs, Bilstein struts, and SPC adj. camber kits front and rear! :thumbsup: Hope you all enjoy this build thread! Criticism welcome.

When purchased:

Not long after, after many times telling myself, "not doing anything for a long time... need a break from the car scene", ran across a good deal on some wheels! lol Here they are, Weds Kranze Cerberus I 19x9, 19x10 +28:

Left wheel was condition when purchased (prev. owner PLASTIDIPPED legit, 3-piece JDM wheel... :facepalm: ), right is after some elbow-grease :smile: Here's the final product:

Couldn't be happier with the outcome! Then came the test fitting... not so smooth when simply bolted on, lol

Hokey Pokey! lol

With planned rubbing, fenders were then rolled, and 215/35 and 225/35 were stretched over the wheels. After seeing the ride height with the current suspension... It was time for a change once more! Went with a cost-effective route and purchased some Megan EZ Streets :smile: Will say they do ride nice, and coming from FF Type IIs previously, I do prefer them (no pic :frown:).

Here's some after shots of the install, and beginning shots of the next stage of the car:
