Hey CC, I havn't posted in a while so heres a little update. I was able to sell the Konig Candy wheels so I decided to buy some Work Meister CR01's. Thanks to Hugh at Evasive Motorsports. I'll post some pics when I get them on. Hopefully they will be here before the East Coast Honda Meet.

Nice. I thought about those wheels myself. What offset and width did you get

 

[K-N-2-EK]

Also out of curiosity what size wheels were the konig candies you had?

I got the 15x7 with a +35 offset. (A-Disk) Nothing too aggressive. I'll probably get 195/50 tires to go with them.

The Konig's were a 16x7 with a +40 offset. I had 205/45's on those

Small update...the tires have arrived. 195/50/15 Toyo Proxes 4

Ive also bought a powder coating gun and toaster oven to do some small parts. Ive done numerous brackets so far and Im very pleased at how they have turned out. I'll try to post pics of the tires and brackets.

Lol I know. First comes love, then come marriage, still no motor in the engine carriage. Oh well, it will come together in time.

It's been two years before I could start on my swap. But you seem to be building yours more gnar than I'm building mine. So kudos!

 

[CHILD]

Years?! lol

Small update...I was able to find some great pieces at my local junkyard. I was able to find 90% of all of the plastic trim for my interior. They had a milano red 96-98 EX that had front end damage. I grabbed all the plastic trim, emblems/badges, map light, valve cover and random switches and covers. I spent most of the day today cleaning them. I just need carpet, seats, headliner, and door panels and a dash. I'll try to post pics soon.

Also, the wheels should be here next week!!
