I didnt get a good response on CL. Maybe some of you guys might like it.

When the air, spacers, and camber is done.... it'll look different.

I'm just wondering if your wheel is the standard 365mm like most that are found on E-Bay. I know Nardi makes bigger sizes but they don't seem to be surfacing on there.

Air ride and backward mounted camber kit, should be done in the next few weeks, depending on my work schedule.

Im also probably going to switch from the 225/40 and 235/40's to some 215/40 and 225/40's, and will be running spacers to push the wheels all the way out to the edge. Fenders will be cut and rolled, of course.

I just measured the wheel, and its about 13.5in. ID (around 343mm?) and 14.25 in. OD (around 362mm?) So, maybe its the standard size. I wouldnt want it any smaller, or any bigger.

Heres a little closer view for you.

like i said on CL, it'll look hot with the new headlights and air suspension.

Theyre 18x9 +25 O-disc and 18x10 +20 A disc.

I bought them from a member here, who lied about the size and condition. All four need to be redone.

Thanks.

I already put new headlights, and Im fitting some clear marker lights, right now.



I ended up not doing air. I have everything, ...but I decided to go with coilovers, instead. Tein Type Flex. Im going more for performance. An engine swap comes next. I need to post updated pics, but I need some 5-8mm spacers in the rear, first.


My antenna is called an MDX. I cant remember where I got it from.

I know, ...Id like to but I scrape on dips in the interstate as it is. I want to keep this real driver friendly. Its about to get a hopped up motor, and whatnot.

I do need at least a front lip, if not a lip kit, or full kit. But, right now the moneys going into the drivetrain. Im getting the seats done very soon, too.

On the rear, I AM putting spacers,.. and lowering it a bit more. I can push the rears out about 8mm, and still have clearence. The fenders are cut out, super thin.

I agree. I love the auto couture. But Im in the process of dropping about $7K-8K on the drivetrain, and I cant spare much more, right now.

Im keeping this car divable. If I cant REALLY drive the car, ..it is no use to me. When I put a front lip, and lower the rear another 1/4", itll look much lower and still be drivable.

I drive fast, and anyone thats ever been through louisiana knows had bad are roads are. Even our interstates. I hit a bump so bad on my bike, a couple weeks ago, I almost died. It bucked me clear off my seat, and sent me into a high speed woble.
