Neeed updates!!!

[06tiburonofdoom]

Thanks, guys! Sorry I don't have more updates quite yet. Haha

But here's why I had to put off getting tires for a couple of weeks...




Work Equip Anhelos! Just showed up like thirty minutes ago. The two I got with lips and barrels are 17x10.5" +13, but I'm considering getting 1/4" of an inch milled off of two of the faces, then getting 1/4" bigger lips and 1/4" smaller barrels. That's mainly so everything would be brand new, but we'll see what I come up with. The fronts will be 9.5" +13. I trying to decide what finish I want with the faces, though... Polished would be easiest/cheapest, but I'm heavily considering brushed with polished windows. Decisions, decisions!

Back to the Civic, I'll probably have the tires ordered by Friday, then once those arrive and I put them on the wheels, I'll do all of the front end parts/bushings and put the camber arms on. Then it's off to get an alignment so it'll be good to go!
Here's a picture I found from a meet we had in OKC a couple of weekends ago.

Sell me those anhelos please for the love of god. lol what are you putting those on? The tib?

[06tiburonofdoom]

Haha, I doubt I could ever sell those. Very few and far between...
And yep! Finally getting the Tiburon to a point where I can comfortably call it 'done'. OEM hood and hatch again, full repaint with lots of fender work, all new moldings, Wilwood brakes, and of course, Anhelos!

Plus, maybe I could try them out on an S2000 some day...

im pretty sure you already know this..but..i h8te you <3

[06tiburonofdoom]

Got the tires ordered! And got the other front tire mounted the other day. So disappointingly easy to seat... Haha I feel like the rears will be easy, too, judging by how the barrel looks.

So now I just need to make my way to the car one of these days to tear into the suspension and get everything ready for some new wheels! Excitingggg. I also messed with an Equip face that was bothering me the other day. Sanded it all down with a couple of different grits and got rid of the majority of little imperfections. Plus, it gives me a small idea of how a brushed finish will look (I'm digging it). That's probably all that I, personally, will mess with them, though. I'll send the faces off to Wheelflip for the rest of the work!

Sorry for no snazzy pics or significant progress! One step at a time...

[240benzo]

mmm mmm girl! you guna have these on by the meet right?! i hope i can get my snapped 50mm lugnut off so i can tuck rim for the meet
any ideas? =]

[06tiburonofdoom]

Rear tires are mounted! I'll post pics once I get home tonight. I've also got all of the Civic's front end parts and bushings loaded up right now, which I'm going to drop off at the car's location after work. Hopefully I can get going on all of that tomorrow! So ready to get this shit done.

yall going to the cupcake at crossroads i want to go just got the clutch in the hatch but looks like a pos with all different paint and primer lol i will probably take tib even though it isnt stanced

[06tiburonofdoom]

Yeah, I'm planning on it! As long as it doesn't rain... Hopefully I don't run into any little things I need to get, either. I'm hoping for the best!

Anyhow, here's some pics of the 15x10s with 195/45s...



And next to a 15x8.5"...


Also, here's a little Equip update (probably the only one for a good while)...


And lastly, my dining room, at the moment. Haha


Alright! Last picture update until these bitches are on.
