i just have to get tires for my 17s and get them recoated in gloss black, and then imma throw those back on..

heres my 17s..

 

rd2's should never have spoilers. those stock spoilers that they have aren't even part of the original car.

socks, aren't you going to mess up your offset with those huge spacers? you could destroy your bearings no?

 

eh, itll prob cause my bearings to go out a little sooner, but i aint worried about it. im on stock bearings still right now. it will look very nice with spacers on and wont cause much of a problem.. itll give me a wider stance, better handling, and look a ton better, so its worth it to me.

 

^ i suppose, that and i trust your hands on expertise. when you get some time look up "wheel offset", it'll give you a litttle halloween scare.

i'm just looking after your ass.

 

offset wont be too big of a deal(seeing as how he flared the fenders like 8 feet), but i'd be more worried about those damn wheel bearings than you seem to be. 2 inches out puts an extra huge torsional load on those suckers, and they cant even deal with stock specs.

will look cool and should give you better handling though. i hope the bearings do hold up though, will make me feel better about mine.


oh yeha, hood is gonna look like shit. wink1.gif

stop spending money on the outside, buy a god damned lsd.

 

looks good, and may i say HOLY WHEELSPACERS Batman !

LOL


you better hope you neber hit a pothole you will crack your bearings, new lugs who knows what else.


but im no one to talk, Im rockin 15 mm spacers LOOL


hey tibby01 IM on where your gettiing your spacers, if you havent purchased yet, I'd like to go in on some ARP 7717's, the evo ones. holla at me

 

no spacers here, but im definitely considering.

 

i actually broke even on the hood, so i didn't spend any of my money on it.. i sold my CF hood, cuz i was sick of it, and got this hood instead.. just to mix things up a bit..

if i hit pothole, maybe a bearing will go, but i got some really nice 190k psi tensile strength studs coming soon. i am really careful when i drive, i have had my rims for 4 years almost and i have NO marks, curbrash, bends, etc.

i will never invest a dime into an LSD as i really have no need to. I am never going to be pushing over 10psi and i don't race the tib. the turbo kit is more for my satisfaction than trying to prove i can get a 13 sec 1/4 mile. also, when i usually boost, i do it from like a 20mph-30mph roll where an LSD wouldn't really help me much anyway. also, 1500$+ for an LSD installed is just nuts.

also, if anyone is looking for some good wheel studs, that have the same strength as ARP, let me know, i found an AWESOME source for race parts and some other parts that are hard to find.

 

You make me want to go spoilerless, man....Fack! (Don't go spoilerless DJ....You don't need it!!! You need the black type r spoiler because it flows with your car...don't do it!!) <---- A little motivation to keep my spoiler, personal reference, don't mind me. Shirley Temples still got the best of me...


I don't like the hood by itself, but once you actually get it in and installed, i'm sure it'll look pretty good.

 

shoot sorry, i confused you wtih SOCKS



hey SOCKS, yea Im interested, what company are they and how much can you get them for ? what are the specs on em ?
