Just ordered springs and rims

[skatethesea]

Hey everyone,

I held out for like three days! WOOT! But then I caved and bought rims and springs. I got the H&R lowering springs. 1.3" drop in front and 1.2" in rear. Then I went with the Enkei EDR9 18x7.5. Going to run the Goodyear Eagle F1 all seasons. I really enjoyed them on the S2000. Here is a link the the rims. I will post pics as soon as I get it all put on.

trying the murdered out look for the first time. Wish me luck. Tinting in Va Beach is hard to get away with.

dude I wouldn't even bother, VA beach is freaking ridiculous. Just save yourself the ticket, or visit with a screwdriver. Legal tint isn't acutally that horrible anyway.

Yea I know. My S2k is registered in FL so i got dark ass tint. But its hard to not want to go all out with a black car. Love the sig about Audis btw.

What model is your car? The speed3 H&Rs arent going to be out for a while. Theyre in R&D still.

Yea I just got a phone call saying that from Tire Rack. So the Question IS!!!!!! will springs for an '09 work on a '10 model? Need to know cause I have a alignment meet in march and I want to have the springs on for at least a week.

don't know for sure, but so far i'm finding that they probably will - someone used BC coils from the 1st gen and installed them successfully to the 2nd gens

Here are the new wheels!

 

[JS + MS3]

dude.. they look great but.. you need to put some good amount of tire dressing.. damn man. make it complete.

and i confirmed with BC that their 1st gen ms3 coilovers fit on our 2nd gen ms3. BUT i don't know for the springs only. our 2nd gen ms3 do weight more on the front so you probably need to consider that.

sounds crazy, but that's the first 2010 MS3 I've seen. SICK.

 

[skatethesea]

Yea I know. This is fresh outta the wash, not even dried all the way. But I had to go. But I always keep my tires shiny and my car clean. Once I get the tint and some springs that work I will post up again. I will look into the coils. But I have to get the S2K back in perfect working order first. $$$$$

 

[focker828]

dude your car looks sick, that what Im trying to achive with mine ,what size tires do have? , r u doin any interior mods?

 

[skatethesea]

The rims are Enkei EDR9s in 18x7.5. with Goodyear Eagle F1 all season. As for future mods. I dont know yet. I might try to fabricate a carbon fiber piece here and there. But the whole reason for the MS3 is so I can put all my efforts into working on my Honda. So mods will few and far between at first.

If you don't tint your windows those wheels will fall off!
