that's what I found in their official site, so is ADR, it's from Taiwan. You have to understand the fact that your wheels DOES sticks out like SUV/truck, that's how they mod it. I didn't say it looks bad , it's looks good. I like the green and black combo. But it stick out man, no matter how you roll your fenders it still stick out. And that's rice, yea, like wanna be civic. You can say my car is rice too, but THAT's what you call JDM. so next time make sure you know where your parts come from before you throw out the jay dee am.

I think it looks pretty good for what they call in Japan "VIP Style". (Super wide rims, with a tire a little narrower so it stretches out, wheel sticking out further than the tire does)
Not my cup of tea, I like the tucked in look, but If You're going for the JDM VIP look, I think you're looking pretty good.
Also: $700? WOW!
It comes to show that by knowing what you want and shopping arround a bit you can look good without having to spend megabucks. (Brand and place of manufacture isn't as important as fit, finish and quality, that's how the sport compact movement started)
Kudos

OK everybody lets quit with all this JDM **** already. Everyone seems to be a journalist here and has their own opinion on jdm this and jdm that, who the hell cares!!! if the man likes his car let him be! To be quite honest with you im not a fan of knockoff wheels or knockoff parts but if he thinks it decently looks good and makes him happy then let him be. Man, alot of you guys are worse than those "JDM" civic owners.

that's gotta be the ugliest setup i've seen, swing and a miss, a sport car should not look like a suv with tires sticking out on the sides, it's not a pretty site, at least not my taste, i think it's tacky. but if you like it then kuddos buddy.
