Sticker???

If I owned the ridgeline then I could, but then I would need a way to get the S there as well so I guess I'd have to get a trailer and a hitch

Hmmmm….stacking the tires in the passenger seat may attract attention from some over enthusiastic law enforcement agent

. Is that obstructing your view and line of sight to your mirror?

Nice rubber BTW.

That cannot be illegal that would be pathetic, what if I had a fat man in my passenger seat? I can still see in the rear view and I can see forward, I didn't check if I can see my side mirror or not, but not all cars even have a right side mirror so I don't think they are required by law.

I see no difference than if I had a pickup truck with a cap filled with junk, or a moving van with no review mirror at all.

Those tires look pretty slick!

Are they on your original Honda original wheels?

There is a Group in the Intial_D Manga called the SpeedStars.

wing · « **Reply #14 on:** April 18, 2006, 12:52:14 pm »

Yup those are my original wheels, thank god for +63 offset or they tires wouldn't fit under my fender.

Yup

Good guys. I got a great deal from them on my JDM 22mm rear sway bar. There was always some killer S2K's and WRX's in and around their shop.

Forgive my newbness, but why are some tires bald and others with what looks like minimal thread? Why do you have so many of each in your garage??

wing · « **Reply #18 on:** April 19, 2006, 08:20:23 pm »

Bald? That's full depth tread 3/32nds. They are race slicks, suppose to look like that.

SodiumSulfate · « **Reply #19 on:** April 19, 2006, 08:22:32 pm »

But there's no treads...how does it grip the road?

I always thought you needed somewhat beefy tires to get a good grip...
