ride height looks just about perfect to me. i wouldn't get smaller tires

gsracer · 06-01-2006, 11:01 PM

Thanks for the complements

Sizes are
18 by 9 +15
18 by 10 +20

sizes are 235/45/18 and 255/40/18
sadly thats the lowest profile falken makes the azenis rt 615 in, i will be stepping up to the 265/35 that just came out but it will be about as tall.

The rear camber is really bad right now at about 3.5 -3.8 degrees. Once i correct the camber , it will pull the tire out some more,, front camber is 2 degrees.

Yes, maybe the fronts are a little fucked up, I've hit a curb back in the day..lol..
The front is only 8.5" +7 and car isn't low as I want on front, it still rub hard on full drifting, my front sidewall is missing from rubbing!!

Johny5 · 06-02-2006, 09:53 AM

mmm post 1,000 in this epic battle of hot cars

Dousan_PG · 06-02-2006, 10:07 AM

aaah front side wall?

s14 has some triangular piece
it ate my Neova
im going to cut it out
take off your fender buddy.
you'll see some triangle brace thing. i rubs it at full lock and eats your tire
for the fender rubbing, just notch (cut) your fender a bit. so when it tucks..it goes in there. heheh..
with a fiberglass fender it should do it it self but u dont want it to tcrack your fender.

hotrodv · 06-02-2006, 12:48 PM

Uras wings are coming here on middle of june with dmax front fender, 2 uras wheels 550 injector and 2 work crkai..

I've roll and pull my front fender but still rub, when I drive a lot I can feel the tire become to hot and have moment where it lost grip..it suck..it's like chewing gum..

TokyoNights · 06-02-2006, 02:39 PM

hotrod
i was having those issues on my s13 too
was so bad Id have to fight the wheel
caved in finally and got the origin fenders

haha, you guys should see stewart's engine bay. He never hammered for clearance so theres this streak on the corner on the front wheel tub where the paint is Black/Blue/Brown due to the heat from the tire rubbing on it.

REDSH!FT · 06-03-2006, 08:36 AM

i ruined a set of tires rubbing on metal fenders...but they notched themselves most of the way so my fenders have a little ^ on each center now...

I swapped over to fiberglass and I plan on going out before paint and tearing up the parking lot behind the shop so i can get the marks right on the fenders...then sand and send it to paint...

I hate seeing people guestimate where the rub is going to occur so they chop like 3" off of the upper fender. Looks awful...

Johny5 · 06-04-2006, 01:09 AM

Would it be shocking if it was?
(They're the same variant of brakes found on later Z32s, japanese S14s, S15s, etc).
