Re: black rims??

Honda Man:

I have black 22's on my Black Ridge which is also lowered 2.5" (Darth Honda as soon as I get the front windows tinted) with no regrets or clearance problems - handles much tighter and you can really throw it into the corners with wild abandon. My wheels are also BSA 342s which I bought very reasonably from BestWheels.

Good luck on finding aftermarket drilled/slotted rotors. I found only one company that would provide slotted rotors, and they wanted $270 per axle - a bit pricey for cheap aftermarket rotors that they are slotting themselves..... Somewhere out there are oversized Brembo rotors (380mm front/355mm rear) with 6 piston calipers in front and 4 piston calipers in the rear as featured on the Hi-Performance Ridgelines Honda presented at SEMA in the fall.
