However its your money, your car, do as you wish, post pics on the internet and take what you get.

yes they are rwd designed wheels, but we put the wider rims in the front... think of it like some fat ass tires on the front for traction at the strip. same concept. Scrubing is highly unlikely with stock suspension unless my friend decides to haul fat chicks and drop spare motors in the trunk. Its a civic coupe... how much are you gonna pile in the thing anyway.

this was just for fun anyway.

after all the good comments, he wants to buy the rims off me... we already painted his current rims bronze and we will prolly do the same if by chance he actually is going to buy them.

So you are taking pics only and not going to drive with it right? Funny there is a great article in EVO this month (has the orange Lambo on the cover) and in the rear they talk about going staggered up front on a FWD car and WHY ITS ASININE. It only will compound problems with a FWD setup. It reiterated what I knew.

If its for pics only fine, thanks for sharing. :)
