    and here is how it sits. sorry about pic quality but i used my phone for all of them. and my car is filthy

      Thanks for the pics. It sits awesome. I really love those rare AR wheels, the 3rd time I've ever seen (from my pony, saw a set for sale in the province, and yours). I thought it's the 4 hole version of the AR daisy wheels.
      Godspeed...

        Civic hatch, sedan or waggo? Did you match the front to front and rear to rear? I hope that makes sense.

            Yea I never seen them before mine. Sometimes I think of getting rid of them because of the tire situation but then I get a complement like yours and want to keep them. Out in public I get either lovers of them... Except for the classic datsun guys who shun me for painting them

            They should all be the same, also the same as a del sol. I'll have to take pics from in the fender well to confirm that, but I beleive that I did

              I know this is a very old thread, but i'm about to do this mod and had afew questions for bobbyspider.

              Did you cut 3 or 4 coils off the front springs?

              Did you ever find out if they were off a 92 - 95 civic ? I thinking about getting 88 - 91 civic springs, but i guess they might be the same thing.

                yes 92-95 and actuall up to 96 i beleive. i will check and get a pic of the front springs for you or i could make you a set if you want ? i have a extra set of springs i havnt modded yet. did you want to go as low as me? i only have about a finger of fender gap. but it all depends on your desired tire wheel setup as well.

                    Do the springs fit right up? I compared the diameter of civic springs with my pride's and they're smaller. Did you do mods other than cutting them?
