I got the same compound. Why didn't you go 225/45/15?

Kelso I have to say, I just sat down and went through this entire thread. Originally I had only gotten on here to look up what to do with my 04 k20a3 with a bad tranny, but after I started reading your thread it was like crack. You are truly an inspiration to me, you seem like just your average everyday Joe, with a real road racer inside fighting his way to the surface. And that's how I feel, unfortunately though I don't live next to goddamn Laguna Seca. (And speaking of which, I knew the track because of Forza, lol, so when you were driving I felt like I was sitting in the damn passenger seat.) But I go out at night down the backroads around my house in the boonies and go to what I call the Bayou George Circuit, and I dream of one day getting to do what you're doing. In fact that's what I'm going to do in literally an hour. Another thing is I don't know shit about fixing cars. My dad didn't show me, blah, blah, boohoo. But reading your article has made me realize I could do it too (another thing we have in common is the school grant exploit, lol, I have college prepaid and a check for 2500 bucks sitting in front of me that I don't need, I wonder if I could get more if I enrolled at like UTI too, hmmm...). Thank you sir, I wish you all the best in your build and life, Mooky Edited: Yeah I see what you mean about the forum setup, I had paragraphs and everything. Oh and yeah that thing with Turbo's eyes is just a slight glaze that appears on the cornea as dogs get older. I have a chihuahua and she has the same thing. Peace.

Ya, you should have gone 225. I also have 15x7, the 225 is noticeably more grip than the 205 and sits just fine on a x7 wheel as well.
You forgot to say "no homo" at the end.

ill look into that size when i need new tires, which probably wont be for a while considering the reviews of these tires
good shit man. im glad i could provide you with some motivation. if you love motorsports and catch the track day bug, not much can get in the way of what you want to do. the great thing about hondas is that the knowledge of how to do something is already intertwined into the community and posted everywhere online. i am glad i chose a honda as my first car to build from the ground up because in many cases, i would have been lost as shit without someone's diy thread of swap guides. now that i have more confidence in my skills, i want to build a more valuable car in the future.

yea to tell you the truth, i liked the idea of the orange/gray better than i like it in real life. i was kind of going for this type of color scheme
but i can always paint the wheels once they get messed up.

I think it will still look sick. Do you have any other plans for a front end swap or anything to match the dopeness of the rest of the car?

i am going to eventually put an adjustable splitter/canards on the front but nothing cosmetic.

with the hood closed, you wont see the valve cover but the roll cage will bug me to no end. maybe ill throw a vinyl wrap over it.
