Yea I came across your thread of when you got those rims before I started this thread.

What sizes out back? any fender work?

These are my Mustang wheels, 18x9 +26 all around.

Cobra wheels are dope too. What's your suspension and tire size setup? That looks like it could be stock height?

Any problem with rubbing or anything?

How do you like those MR coilovers for daily driving?

Coilovers are fine for me on daily driving. They are my first experience with aftermarket suspension I love it. I have them set pretty hard right now just because of the rubbing issue but if you were too get them you would not be dissappointed. The price is awesome too.

No, I don't go to CSM. I just figured it would be a good place to take pictures. I'm running Tanabe DF210's with KYB AGX's. Not exactly coilovers; just wanted to show how 9" wide rims look with that offset.

SpeedMonkeyInc · 06-16-2005, 06:14 PM

Cobra replicas, 17x9 +24 front and 17x10.5 +27 rear. The wheels fit great, but I put too much tire in front. I went with 235/45/17 and I should have done 235/40s. I needed a 5mm spacer for the tire to clear my Tein HEs. Sorry, no photos of the rear yet because I have no way of blacking out the license plate on this computer.

justinhustle · 06-16-2005, 06:52 PM

no way of blackin the plate out?

Don't "haha" me asswipe I make my living on computers and if I could do that on this computer I would. I don't have MS paint because I don't have a windows machine.

turbospeedmuffin · 06-16-2005, 10:26 PM

you're lazy mang, use iphoto to chop it. If I'm bored I'll do it for you later.

I hosted the photo's for lazy older brother...

SpeedMonkeyInc · 06-16-2005, 10:29 PM

Ha thanks. I used the [img] tags but it didn't work? I wonder if Yahoo's hosting prevents it?

OptionZero · 06-16-2005, 11:11 PM

what spec tires you decide on in the end for the rear, and any fender mods (roll/pull?)

I'm thinking the exact same set of wheels since they're so damn cheap..but don't worry, they're goin on a white car so it 'll look different

SequenceGarage · 06-16-2005, 11:54 PM

D2 Coilovers

17x9 +20 clears no problem

17x9 +37 cleared with a 10mm spacer but only when the coilover was bolted up in such a way so that the hub was in a position for maximum positive camber possible. In other words the upper bolt is all the way towards the outside of the elongated hole on the shock bracket, with it all the way in (another 2~ degrees of camber) the wheel would rub on the coilover. Also, if the suspension is too low the tire and rim would hit the spring perch and locking collar.
