As you can see from the center caps, they are AME's, Auto RnD sells them. Looks like they are Shallen CX's.

Yo you Sourthern boy muffucka, what size tyres on those jams?

215/40/18?

I would like to tuck a bit mre tread up front, but i have 225/40/18 AD07s on 9.5s. Rear is 245/40/18 on 10.5.

This is why i want 17s for the front... I can lower the rear until the lip hits the fender, but I can't lower the front to match b/c on 18s it just wouldn't turn. Damn.

Johny5 · 03-17-2006, 08:49 AM

**Phlip** · 03-18-2006, 12:56 PM

Keep in mind that I am making no claims to be SUPER low, but today I put the new (to me) spring/struts on the car, and in such have shaken the monster truck mentality form a couple of pages ago:

And here is my stock S13 lip:

... before I could drive over a midget standing up straight and not rub, now I have to learn to drive all over again.

Muzzy · 03-19-2006, 12:28 AM

DoriftoSlut · 03-19-2006, 09:05 PM

aaron, your car will meet its demise at the hands of my S13. It will never be LOWER!!! BAH! Tomorrow, my friend. Tomorrow is a new day.

Nan Desu Ka?! · 03-20-2006, 05:39 AM

you guys make me feel like a panzy... o well here is my bitch. yes, she is going lower. as soon as i get tires for my 15X8 0 offset rims, and i nice roll and pull.

MR coils, with another half inch of threads left before i start adding preload.

yes, i know the rear is too high, im trying not to destroy my exhuast before i can sell it and get something that is not as big, or hang as low.

TokyoNights · 03-20-2006, 07:49 PM

upSLIDEdown · 03-21-2006, 01:23 PM

Not low enough. Trying to sell these and go 17/18 stagger. 18s up front are just too tall. Anyone else rubbing the underside of the strut tower? I'm not rubbing any inner fender metal anymore, beat all that outta the way, but I'm rubbing right over top of the front tires in hard corners on the front edge of the underside of the strut tower (if that makes any sense at all)...
