Question FINALLY LOWERED...now what wheels?

WOW. I actually got a real mod done to my car. Before now all I had was a type-r grill, red/clear tail lights, and white honda emblems. Well finally I got a job and saved some money and the civic is lowered 2.5" on dropzone coil overs. I love the way it looks, i'll try to post some pics. Next thing is wheels. I am bout halfway there in the money aspect, but I'm not sure what i want. I really like the Tenzo Shu-4's and I want to get them in gunmetal (inner gunmetal, silver lip). Any pics or suggestions would be appreciated. Also, if you wanna give me any tips bout the suspension feel free. (Coil overs go from 0-4" drop)

Did you also put on new shocks when you put on springs? I'd do that first before you blow out your stock shocks. You can chance it, but personally I'd do it and get it out of the way so I don't have to worry about blowing my shocks in a few months and running the risk of not having any money to get it fixed. Again, just my opinion.

For wheels, www.wheelmax.com has some good ones to look at. Someone said they charge an arm and a leg to get the tires balanced and mounted, but I don't know for sure so might wanna be aware and find out before you order. www.groupbuycenter.com also usually has some nice deals on rims.

Good luck and post pics!

try to get shocks first and foremost... u can get good shocks at decent prices... tokicos are good... so are KYB... try www.groupbuycenter.com ... u hafta join... but its free... n they got good deals if u check back frequently... the camber kit is a must... but u can hold off on that... i remember reading a washer trick u can do till u can get a real camber kit... it was in this forum... oh yeah... save up also for a 4wheel alignment... its always good to do that whenever u play with the suspension...
