ABP Still ticking! new wheels









Retiring the old ronjon servos their going to a friend of mine

They served me well, for many years even though I've bent two and managed to pop a lot of tires. I'm going to miss them but its time to change the car around.



winter setup


I bought them off another tsx member =)








Mugen GP 18x7.5
225/40/18

Gotta love them

They story behind the ronjons is I had them from a previous tsx owner back in 05


he sold me a bunch of his parts dirt cheap
the ronjons 300 with tires, one slight bent
note thats not my car haha he was another abp 04 though

I then had them for two years and got wrecked from a construction site that was unmarked after some fresh snow. Insurance covered them in full so I got 1800 out + 600 to fix my camber/ install aftermarket camber kit.

I got a 2nd set of ronjon servos from rondog himself for a great price and ever since i've been rocking them. Regardless of bending two rims which he always has helped me out on.

So you can say this is my first legit pair of wheels =) and i'm glad i got these.

Craz rims do the ride alot of justice. Not a chrome fan, so I thought the Rons didn't serve you any good. But the Mugens are tight. Look good with the stance as well.

I know the chrome didn't suite the blue hey but back then I was a modding kid that just appreciated what ever I was able to get.
