My wife and I just recently traded in her 03 Honda Element for a new 06 one. ![http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j91/HustlerM/DSCN0686.jpg](http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j91/HustlerM/DSCN0686.jpg) Its kiwi metallic green, and is a 5 speed. So far I have only put on a set of AXIS Widetrack rims with Kumho rubber( we have only had it a week). I am the first person in Alberta to have these rims. They have a 50mm lip in front and 80 mm lip in rear. Future plans include CAI, exhaust, Eibach springs and camber kit. Once the warranty is off I would love to turbo it LOL. What do you guys think. With Honda Elements you either love it or hate it so keep your flames to yourself. Pic of rims: Smoking=bad 80mm lip=goood ![http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j91/HustlerM/DSCN0687.jpg](http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j91/HustlerM/DSCN0687.jpg) ---
