I'm still cringing over having to do the front. The fact that a standard fitting 21mm socket was still stripping lugs is concerning.

Ignore the blurriness of the photos and the POS Civic Si I own in the background. My arms were dead.

Looks good. I need to add those to my list.

Looks good to me, Lein. I bet you'll be happy with the way it looks after you install the Swifts. Good job, but sucks you're having problems with the lugs.

Yea. i'm sure a small drop will help out a lot. Some new wheels in next years budget are being planned. Thinking WEDs SAMM's or S-XX's.

I love the SA55M. They look great on the Z. You can find killer deals on wheels the week after Thanksgiving. That's when I got mine and I saved a ton of money.

Then it's off to get an inspection sticker and I'm good until next year.

Before (RE050A's):

After (S04's):

All set for the nice weather!

Hate when that happens, the only downside to having a smart key is it's always trying to connect with the car

Just like Kansas... no annual inspection (smog or otherwise), just

The KHP does get it's pound of flesh, if you bring in an out of state car. Then they want to 'inspect' the title and compare it to the vehicle...

OK, now all of you have motivated me to get off of my @$$. Going to the garage to remove the car cover, disconnect the battery tender, pull the steel wool out of the exhaust and crank her up.

I'm going to jack up the front of the car today and remove the wheels for the front spacers. I only plan to strip or snap 2-3 lugs this time. Don't get to motivated
