and this is where it goes to far. ugly
Its just a bodykit
Blatant ripoff of the "Euro" look so despised once upon a time by the JDM crowd.
N/A>>><<<BOOST
That's not the JDM crowd, that "Cali Style"
What I'm referring to is the Real Euro scene over in Germany and such. not Cali. who also "ripped Off" the Euro guys.The JDM part of it came from the comments that honda guys used to say when bagging on the VEE DUB guys about 0 offsets + rolled fenders just to start biting the style 10 years later.
N/A>>>
You know what ... let me step back in here. I'm not knocking this car/owner, but the "scene" as a whole. Things like this is why SpoCom went to shit. Mild tasteful tucks have been expanded to cars that don't even run. Mild low offset TASTEFUL wheels have been expanded to fender rolled extreme 0 offset failrides. Tasteful wings that complimented OEM body lines gave way to triple-decker neon-lit 200 lb chandelier wings... same w/ body-kits.
You want lower offset, it can be done and done right... but why is everything in SpoCom over fuckin done? Maybe I'm showing my age but SHEESH. Simple - functional tasteful goes a LONG way. I just sold my pride and joy EG hatch and you couldn't tell that it hasn't been touched in over 6 years... TIMELESS and TASTEFUL like an old school rock/r&b song is the order of the day.
Playing the trends just means you have to re-do the shit later when that particular trend turns gay, and it will!! Idk...

Ok ok ok people... Enough with all the talk of "it's TOO much!" or "oh cool another kid biting the V Dub style" or "yeah, that looks funtional (/sarcasm)" jibber jabber. First off... I understand that is an open forum, which is an awesome platform to expose all sorts of people to all sorts of new things... and of course EVERYONE is entitled to their own opinion, which I fully support and encourage to every extent of the word. BUT... what is the difference between Spanky trying to push the boundaries and fit the widest width/lowest offset possible on a 5th gen hatch VS. someone taking a single cam, fully building it, boosting it with an ungodly ammount of PSI, and pusing the boundaries to get the fastest D series Honda? Both are pretty pointless if you choose to see it that way. One if a focus on style, stance, and just a test of sheer ball size to see if it really IS possible to roll with a static drop on a REALLY REALLY wide wheel... The other is a focus on speed, power, and a test of sheer ball size to see if it really IS possible to build a measly single cam into a monster that'll put most boosted b series' to shame. YET... the person building the single cam would probably be given the biggest ego stroke with the army of people hoarding around to give him a collective pat on the back for building such a beast. Like a few have already stated in earlier posts, not everyone builds their car to take to the track, be a daily driver... or hell, even be very functional at all (like mini trucks for instance... not very functional in the real world if you ask me, but they look cool as shit and serve their purpose doing so) Visual aestethics is one of the most important things in the car world, whether you think so or not. No one builds their car with absolutely NO concern with outter appearance... he just spent a little more focus on wheel fitment and tried something that was a little (well A LOT) more extreme than the usual Honda build. No harm in that right? Well as this thread will show.... Yes, LOTS of harm in that. God forbid someone takes what is seen by some as a "distasteful trend" that only Volkswagen guys can get away with and apply it to his own personal build and vision of how he wants his car to look... whether you think it meets your standards of "taste" or not. TASTE IS RELATIVE AND IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER. What makes one wire tucked engine bay more TASTEFUL than another? What makes one wheel width/offset more TASTEFUL than another? What makes this tasteful on VW's and not on Hondas? Why limit one particular "style to one particluar make of car? What is shit to one man is gold to another, and there is no rule book on taste... and if there is, I haven't read it. I mean I understand it's not everyone's cup of tea... and I am well aware that this isn't "new" or "unique" but I'll have to say that it is ground-breaking seeing as though it is, as far as I know, the widest/lowest offset combination successfully fitted on this platform, which like it or not is a feat never achieved by anyone else to date... and in my book that is a great example of something ground-breaking. Largest turbo on a b16... Most whp out of a built NA motor... both are ground-breaking because there is no other example exceeding the two. And further more... this whole business with the VW ripoff, I just don't understand how because one group of people start one thing, and another adapts it, it's not considered genuine. I mean lets face it... the big boy V8's pretty much own the drag racing scene... yet there are tens of thousands of 4 cylinder import enthusiasts who partake in it... and that's ok right? I say, yeah it's impractical, yeah it may look stupid, yeah it may just be a hot trend that will eventually die off and make everyone feel real stupid for buying sportmaxxes back in 2009, but credit should be given where credit is due. It took a lot of work and finesse to make those things fit, and for what it's worth... I thnk he deserves some sort of recognition for actually fitting a wheel on a car that no one (including me) would ever think could work. I value any and every person on this forum who takes the time to interject with an opinion on any topic, and not just a barrage of hate and insluts. I mean no spite with my words as I am just another random faceless poster on a pretty cool car enthusiast forum putting in his 2 cents. I knew this one little picture would cause a pretty intense uproar, but come on people... it's just ANOTHER car put up on the chopping block for everyone's criticizm. Someone's always gonna have something to say about anything anybody posts... but all the bickering over some dude's car who lives over 2000 miles away? Let it go folks. Like it or not, he's gonna be driving this thing around till he finds a WIDER set of wheels for everyone to cry about... and unless you decide to move to Southern California... I'm sure it'll be pretty easy to avoid having to look at things like this. Oh, and go ahead and block out the two following search perameters: "Phaze 2" and "Hasback".
GetFRESH! over and out.

Most Honda owners are on Honda-Tech and see these "internet celebrities" from Cali, so I'm pretty sure they know what goes on in there.
Like I post on H-T, this car is well done, but these -92482347 offset wheels take from the look.
yeah if you dont like it. dont post bitch
its called style, thinking outside the box. not everybody runs their car around the track, like im sure you do everyday.
you ever been scared to drive your car because of the high theft rate? probally not. people with parts like these do. so they dont drive them daily. so who cares how they sit or how the wheels fit. FUCK
PG+K
...Uhhh noooo
I'm going to post my opinion when ever, where ever. Don't like it close your eyes when you see my screenname.
Real cute with the name calling. Damn, punk a skinny punk behind a keyboard and they become Rambo...
LOL style huh? Okay whatever you stay... how is it outside of the box when it's just biting V-Dub people?!? Really
LOL Have you ever been to Atlanta? Talking about a high theft rate. You can't even park a primer down hatch at the mall here without being worried about getting it stole'n, so what's you point there?you ever been scared to drive your car because of the high theft rate? probally not. people with parts like these do. so they dont drive them daily. so who cares how they sit or how the wheels fit. FUCK
WTF are you talking about - BITCH!!!yeah if you dont like it. dont post bitch

It was posted ONLINE for opinions.. you're the guy who thinks every1 is supposed to like what you do and then get e-hurt when they don't - welcome to fuckin' Earth where not every1 will like what you do or like the things that YOU think is kool.
And LO-fuckin-L at low/negative offsets being "outside of the box"- it's TRENDY - it's not STYLE. STYLE never dies --- trends do. It won't be long before no1 is doing this on Japananese cars anymore... that means its a TREND. It's not new - it's not unique... it's not ground-breaking - ACCEPT IT.
"I'm not a gynecologist... but I'll take a look."
I think it's... cute.
lol
But really... on a serious note, fuck the haters and what they say. Do your thing, man. If everyone stopped doing what they do because of what haters have to say, then nobody would ever do what they like. It may look like dog shit, but damnit... that's your dog shit -- Be proud of it.
funny sh!t.
