Sooo much BEEF!!

[MPFab]

Those wheels on tour sonic remind me of a Mercedes b200 Idk why

Are you on that sh*t again??

 

[alteredego]

Gorgeous.

 

[Foxbox]

^^^ This.

MPFab, do you get any rubbing on hard turns, or slow short radius turns?

I got my front wheels flush and this get a bit noisy in turns.

 

[MPFab]

In a sustained hard corner, no. But a sharp hit will make a "shhht" sound as the tire rubs the fender liner.

 

[Foxbox]

Your fenders are completely untouched as well right? (Referring to fender rolling)

That's awesome.

No. Fronts are rolled and slightly pulled. I just pulled the rears a wee bit last night because I noticed marks on the tire.( it was stripping the armor all off) and I may drop it another .5" so it gave me enough room for that.

 

[Foxbox]

Ahh okay.

Still good stuff, I was just hoping 255's squeezed in there on untouched fenders.

 

[MPFab]

If I had stayed with Eibachs, then the fenders wouldn't have needed to be touched.

I'm sure this has been covered elsewhere, but i could not find it anywhere. I just noticed your mustachless grill; how did you do it?!?!

edit: nevermind! just found it in Exterior mods....

18x9.5 +42?

 

[Thaifight-R]

18x9.5 +42?

In the rear.

@MPFab
Remind me, was it .5" or 1" you cut off for the front?

 

[minsanity]

Love BEEF!

 

[Natesriv]

need pics with wheels at full lock?

Haha! You still don't believe that it turns! I'll get you a pic tomorrow.

.5"

 

[Thaifight-R]

18x9.5 +42
-.5" or ~12mm
+42 - 12 = +30

So the fronts are about 18x9 +30.

Nice.

Do those GoodYears have a protector lip? I'm beginning the search for tires for my next wheels, but the lip on my KDWs is the cause of rub. I'd hate to give up some flush to protect a lip that is suppose to protect my wheel rim. I know how to practice safe parallel parking and don't need wheel profalactics.

It's mild, but I'd stay away from the goodyears. They aren't round. Road force numbers are horrible. The two that passed did so just barely. I had two new ones swapped with the other two, and they aren't round either. I just said screw it and let it ride. At certain speed(35-40mph) there is a mild but perceptible wobble from the out of round tires. We tested the wheels for run out, but they were found to be true during this test. The tires are the culprit.
