i get to work on Bobby Jackson's Escalade with 26" dubs....
am i cool now that i get to drive the bling?
are you sure?
dammit!
18" is too big for an FC, i'm glad i didn't make that mistake. and since when do you have to have wheels poking out the side to be cool too? i hate that look. even with the stock fenders and hardly able to squeeze in there without rubbing is the best fit imo.

You think 22" rims on an SUV is bad, theres a Caprice Classic with 25" rims around Killeen. He had to raise the car about 5 inches just to fit them under the car. What was really funny was when he just had the rears.
BTW, I do think those first fims look great on FC's. When ever I get the money for rims (sometime next decade, at this rate) I'm planning on getting those.

What does this have to do with anything? Plus your 16...I doubt your affording 22"s either, unless high school pays more than it did a few years ago.

But I shouldn't criticize before I know the facts. So, chuck, Are you going to do any performance upgrades on this FC? (I'd recommend going 5-lug to start.) Or, is it going to be a show car?
actually im getting the engine rebuilt once the body work is done, after that full exhaust ect. but i just wanted to get the body work out of the way first

Look at the pinion angle. The way the 4 link is designed it rotates the pinion up as the suspension is compressed which is bass-ackwards.
And is this toy powered by compressed air?

o yea i forgot to mention that im also upgradeing my brakes because they are worn to **** because of drifting and all, im sure i could just replace the pads and be fine but i saw some slotted disk brakes on ebay for like 350 for front and rear so i think ill just go with that setup, but noone really awnsered my question about the rims i found does anyone know any good 4 LUG rims that look good, preferabally 5 spoke but yea 4 lug rims, and what would a 4 to 5 lug conversion do for performance?

^ to have more lugs holding youre wheel on,
wider more selection of wheels.
besides 4 lugs are gay, and will never find out how they managed to make those single pot calipers stop the car, the front brakes on base's are smaller than my rear brakes.

Ok so how much money would it take to convert from a 4 lug to 5 lug, can i buy a kit somewhere, how much work would it take, and how long. i searched, no informative threads. thanks guys
