If the prelude somehow got written off then that's always an option! :lol:

So I wasn't 100% sure on the DC2 wheels so I found a cheap set of 15" accord wheels and I like the sutbtle honda oem look.it also drives so much better with these wheels on.i think the dc2 ones don't fit the prelude well.

Got a few ideas for the car.going to remove the spoiler.thinking about getting rid of my powerflow catback or even just cut off the backbox and weld a spoon N1 on.going to fit my 60mm springs after the winter and I need to do the cam seals and cam cover gasket.

The tyres sizes are 195/60/15.

Just drove all the way back to Scotland again and the wheels are perfect on it.sold the Teg ones aswell so the extra money will help over Christmas! ( or new service parts ) 8-)

yeah ive noticed that OEM wheels seem to run better - could be the fact they dont need spiggot rings and dont have crazy offset - might also be the fact the OEM wheels are tougher and less likely to get knocked out of shape....

youve done some great work on this lude - must be coming up for year since you bought it ;)

Yeah the steering feels a lot better.i am happy with it and I ll be painting them in a gun metal grey in the spring too.

It's coming along well but it's exactly a year on January the 5th that I have owned the car.feels a lot longer.

Here's a picture of the spoiler been removed.i know it needs lowered to suit this look but I have my springs that will go on in the spring.i am also picking up a 2.5" catback and decat next week.so that will be a full 2.5 manifold back exhaust system :)
