Bought some new wheels, lip kit and eyelids off of this RSX-S. The wheels are ESTATUS this guy bought them from japan for 4k last year. They are 19x8 in front and 19x9 in the rear, great 3" lip on the front wheel and a 3.5" lip on the rear wheels. He says these wheels are lighter then the stock wheels. I also bought the chargespeed lip kit off his car and his eyelids. Got a really good deal on everything. VIP Style is what he was going for. Here is a picture of the car this stuff was on. Soon to be on my rsxs.

Anyways im amped up the wheels are a rare bird, the setup is basically a JDM VIP Style setup. Its not a well respected setup with front wheel drive cars, but its a huge style with the rear wheels drive sport loaded sport cars. But all in all the guy whos car i posted his style and car is respect for the style and now i basically bought everything exterior wise from him. So all in all.. Hated by many loved by few, this will be me new tattoo also.. There are alot of people who dont know what VIP style is i guess. here are some better pictures.. without eyelids though.. Basically JDM Bling.

Its not that I dont know what "VIP" style is.. its just that, how tacky it is vs how clean a car COULD be is my only argument.
But mikey i'll never hate, and go for it man. its all you.

IMO, I honestly don't think the wheels look that bad. They look like the Mercedes AMG wheels. And as far as the eyelids, I think they really set off the front end. I like.
BTW, Sorry to hijack your thread, but I just started at Riverwood doing maintenence, so far it kicks ass, a lot better then my other job.

I dislike the Eyelids, the lip kit AND the wheels, lol. None of them look right on the car IMO. It doesnt look clean at all. Id rather drive stock. But thats just me.

Wider rims in the rear than the front on a FWD car. Wow. Just.......wow. If it tells you anything, that "style" is very popular in the VW world. And I highly doubt a rim with that much material in the center of it is as light as the stock rims. I'll believe that when I see the scales.
But if it's your "style", I guess, go for it...
