How's it going everyone? I just registered here, and live in Washington. I drive a 2005 SXT MTX, currently all stock. It has a warranty to 75,000 miles, with 20,xxx miles on it currently. So as far as that goes, I'm just gonna do minor things that the warranty will allow, and things to make it look nice, and not riced out.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. I've been reading on here for a few days, and finally decided to register. Currently I'm looking for wheels and tires, maybe like the ASA R1's.
After that, I may go with a full coil-over setup if the warranty allows. I want to piece together an exhaust too, but I'm not really sure what I want to go with yet, since I don't want it to sound bad.

Pshhh... who needs warranty?

But in all seriousness, an aftermarket part can only void your warranty if it is deamed responsable for the problem.

That's true, I'm not too worried about it anyway. I want to learn to fix most of the problems myself anyways.

ASA's are good lookin wheels, but theyre fairly heavy and definatly not the highest quality. I actually looked into them a long time ago, but ive since learned that its worth the extra green to buy a lightweight and well built wheel. You truly do get what u pay for. However, if you just want it to look good and arent shooting for performance/reliability then disregard the above!
oh and welcome!

I saw that they were heavy, so I'm not sure on what I want. I'm gonna take my time on this, because I don't want to buy something I will regret. I looked at the 15" Rota's on Modernperformance.com, but not really sure how they would look on my car. But at 13 pounds, they sure are light.

Good plan bro. rota's seem to be pretty good wheels, theyre making a pretty good reputation for themselves too.

Thanks, I might go with the Rota's. The other day I saw a clean red Integra with them on it, and it looked real nice, just not sure how they would look on my car. Maybe if I dropped in a couple of inches things would look better.
