I ordered my C2 evo package through Options Auto Salon. One of the wheels had the wrong offset, and I was able to return it and they sent me out the right one with no hassle.

www.optauto.com although I don't think they have much on their websie. You can check out there ads in super street too. I bought my wheels from them like almost a year ago and they had the best package price for them at that time.

Options has a lot in stock and reasonable prices but they are by far not the lowest you can find. They markup their stuff slightly.

SteveV's car is tight. So is 2kluder's. I drool everytime I see Steve's car.

Steve,

Your car is tight! What kind of a drop is that? Is that a real mugen spoiler? Do you know where I can get a replica one? Thanks

thanks guys. As some of you know, I got the mugen front bumper on and the emblems/trunk keyhole shaved too. I just put my C2's back on it and I need to take some new pics.

vtec32, it's about a 2.5 inch drop on ground controls and konis. And the replica Mugen kit is VIS and I got the replica spoiler from James Chan, www.performance-evolution.com.

No wider than a 7.5J, and between +42 and +50 offset.
+42 mm if you like the 'sticky out' look!
Around a +48-+50mm for the 'tucked up' look!

I had +55 but too 'tucked up' IMO!
