Wheels look nice! Can't wait to see them on the car. What size tires are you going with?

Oh and you've got a super dumped car simulator. Are you getting bags too?

synviper · Post by **synviper** » Thu Mar 03, 2011 6:59 pm

Yes bags fo sho haha, im thinking either 225/45 or 235/45. There are more options with the 225s but i like the beefiness of the 235s. Hopefully i should have tires tomarrow.

OMG Jake, NEVO! really? lol

superdan · Post by **superdan** » Thu Mar 03, 2011 9:10 pm

I have some 225/45/17s I could see you for cheap. Tires probably have about 500 miles on them

Jake, are you on coilovers? I didn't see them, so I'm guessing not. When will you ever get them?

synviper · Post by **synviper** » Sun Mar 06, 2011 6:34 pm

Nah, im not on coilovers. Ive got alot to do still in the engine area for now, i need an upgraded clutch and fuel pump setup at the moment. I probably have the next best thing to coilovers with adjustable shocks with springs, but obviously i cant go as low as some of you guys.

Rubbers will be thrown on the car tomarrow i went with:

235/45/17 Hankook ventus v12 evo, for the price and some of the reviews i have read they should be just fine. God its going to be really weird driving with beef on the tires rather than rubberbands.

ps not that kind of rubbers, get your mind out of the gutter kids mmmmmkay

synviper · Post by **synviper** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 10:30 am

Beef its whats for dinner.

Sorry for the dirty pictures after the accident i have been abusing my right to wash the car :/

pixtors.

synviper · Post by **synviper** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 10:42 am

Yeah i do dan haha, idk why i guess im too lazy to scrape it off, i thought id start a collection.

superdan · Post by **superdan** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 10:49 am

Nothing wrong with that lol

synviper · Post by **synviper** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 11:10 am

Just a comparison between tires and wheels.

That's an incredible improvement. Makes me want to add "beef" to my car.
Are still you using the stock struts with the new wheels?

synviper · Post by **synviper** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 11:22 am

Im using tokico illuminas, i dont know if there from an acr or just aftermarket ones ( i bought them used). But a stock strut should fit a 235/45 tire on a 7.5+ wide wheel.

Thanks brandon.

finally diff rims and better beefier tires to make it look more aggressive and i bet it rides better than the low profiles.

good job man. looks good.

oh yeah and i have those same tires. they are awesome on grip too.

They look just like Ryan's wheels. lol. Looks good.

synviper · Post by **synviper** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 5:32 pm

Yeah there a really similair make. I really like them.

So back to the age old question. Wing or No wing?

sidepipe87 · Post by **sidepipe87** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 5:59 pm

Looks really good Jake! And I vote keep the wing!

Corrected that for you

esteinmaier · Post by **esteinmaier** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 6:56 pm

When they are close to the ground, I don't like the tall wing. How about an SXT wing?

TheRandom1 · Post by **TheRandom1** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 7:00 pm

I say keep the wing unless you go with a PVO spoiler or something. I don't like wingless Neons.
