    So finally after getting both new Front & Rear Camber Kits my EG8 is starting to sit how I want it....

    Tires are: 195/45r15 Nexen N3000

    I think it's the lack of other mods besides wheels/suspension, but I literally groaned when I saw this. Not liking it right now...

    I feel if you have a 4 door honda civic, you should get some wheels that look like they belong on a 4 door honda civic. Things that look good on some cars do not look good on others.
