tires are too small

too much gap

ksnew 12-02-13 11:32 AM

It's sitting high Russ, I'll get more pictures of it today after work. It's sitting high because I have a s14 wheel with a flat tire on the other side so the car is leaning on the driver's side pretty bad

ksnew 12-02-13 06:59 PM

Grabbed some better pictures with both the 18's in the rear.

Steeeeeezzz man...steeeez...

RussTII 12-03-13 03:03 AM

thats better

but i still think there isnt enough tire

ksnew 12-03-13 08:27 AM

Yeah, I'm either going to take a little camber out to get the tire flush, run a 30mm spacer instead, or go even lower lol. one of those three will happen.

Those wheels are dope! Got any full side shots?

I'm liking the kaleidoscope black paint much more than the grey too!

thanks, they're one of my favorite sets of wheels. and not yet. I still have the front end off from painting. it sits really high too since there's no motor in it right now. I'll throw the front end together and get a full side shot on my day off. might put a few bricks on the subframe to bring the front end down a bit haha

Just have to clay the pistons now to check for clearance, then put all the engine accessories back on it.

it's in the works. I'll at least get pictures of it tucking rim lol. don't know how high I'm going to actually ride it though. I need new coilovers really.... Mine are busted as fuck... just ask Russ, he's been there first hand.... lol


turns out my valves and pistons are playing patty cake.. time to take it back to the machine shop and get the pistons fly cut.

Yes do this

ksnew 12-12-13 10:11 AM

I wish I could go that low. My car squats way too hard to be that low. I'd be ripping off my back bumper every time I did a pull. I need stiffer coilovers first

10thslydur 12-12-13 10:28 AM

Beefier springs, but I think if you fall somewhere in between those to pics with ride height it will still look Rad and give you still some suspension travel.

mannykiller 12-12-13 10:34 AM

fd's don't look good tucking IMHO. I think it looks sick the very first pic where your tires are showing. Plus you won't scratch the hell out of those pretty wheels. First pic is perfect drift fitement if that's what your worried about.

Double fix't

ksnew 12-12-13 12:35 PM

Not worried about fitment from wheel to over fender, worried about smashing my bumper and side skirts off when the car squats. Once I get stiffer spring, I'll be fine
