18x8 +38 offset 225/40 front
18x9 +38 offset 275/35 rear

stock suspension, lol :rock:


thx, this is great information to many people.. keep it up

On that last pic...I dunno how you got it to fit, cause an 8.0", +38 isn't supposed to fit with the stock suspension up front... :eek:
And I thought 275's were just too tight to stuff on back... :eek:


-Ted

...i kinda thought the same thing... i would have never fit 275s on stock, but after the picts i think i still wont... too beefy!!!

A lot of people ruin their cars with wide body's.


I preffer perfectly rolled or pulled fenders that sit flush with the tires/rims

Geez man, what's your problemo? There's no need to bad mouth anyone, anywhere, anytime. It's ridiculous. The OP was looking for pictures of FCs with 18s or 19s, that's all.

Wrong to post replies

I agree with red_s5

I have a stock fc but I enjoy seeing what other people do to their 7 whether I like it or not. It is their option to do so.
If you like it compliment them, if you don't say nothing.

I think it is wrong to post replies bad mouthing fellow 7 owners.

I'm not bad mouthing anyone...
Only the idiots who think they are smarter than the tire manufacturers themselves...
They know who they are...

Oh, and I think it's the guys that were bitching about the "bad" ricer comments that started it...don't you think?
We're all entitled to our opinions.
Don't expect everything to be positive.
As long as we don't break the forums rules (and don't step on mods toes), we can say whatever we want...right?

I got your same wheels josh with much smaller/stretched tires and my JICs are on the floor so it will be cool to see how it looks when I put them on this weekend. your car gave me the idea, hopefully they look just as good!

13b_cookie_monster 10-21-07 04:05 PM

did you get those off zilvia? they were uber cheap. good find but those bee-r replicas were nice too

danegerous 10-21-07 04:20 PM

haha yes yes I did. I called dude as soon as I saw it for the bee*r replicas but they were gonnnnne. They look like cst-d specs. but anyway I can't wait my car looks just like joshes cept its all white and like 2.5 inches off the ground. these bitches are either gonna ride my fender or tuck so we shall see :)

PlatinumPresto.info 10-21-07 06:25 PM

...should i?

rolling is much easier than i expected.

Fronts are not too much of a bother, but the rears are a whole nother story...
Double wall metal back there, and it can't be a "mild" roll...
You need hammers to bang out the lip like that, and unless you've got auto body skills, it's hard to make it look nice.
Your "fender rolling" goes way beyond what most people would call it that.

Looks like you're got some serious negative camber back there too?

What size front tires are you running?
Even that other guy was running 225's up front and 275's in back.
I don't like to run big staggers, as this induces understeer from the smallish front tires.
I'd prefer the tires sizes to be closer front versus rear...
