My wheels are in!

Work Euroline DH (of course)
18x8J +25, O-disk
I was expecting +35, but whatever, I'll make 'em fit. At least I know strut clearance is not a problem.
Got them from Tim (Bippu_Ten) and had no problems at all. I like that he sent me some goodies along with them too! I'll put 'em on the car with no rubber, just to see how they fit, later this week.

Being original, especially with wheels is very hard these days unless we have DEEP DEEP pockets
The wheels look killer. 8" wide wheel @+25 is easy to get to fit, figure that most go with at least an 8.5" or 9" wheel

Heheh, yeah, it has been forever since any progress, but life > hobbies this year more than usual :(
I went with these DHs because they were a good deal, and a classic look, and the sizing was what I was looking for..I had pretty much planned on DHs since the beginning
My goal is to have these wheels on before my birthday (August 23)...I give myself a wide margin because I'm moving and looking for a job upgrade this month.
I still have no 100% idea what I'm doing for suspension, I will consider that more carefully when the time comes.

hey buddy...ur pulling through now.
You might as well mock up an air setup. it shouldn't be too hard if you get in touch with UAS should it? you could piece together a kit, it should be a little cheaper since your car is pretty much a K-car.
Throw some adjustable KYB's on there, with a bag setup, run your compressor/probably a 5 gallon tank, and viola...ultimate ride height! Do IT.
You've proven you can wait it out, now just do it right the first time and wait a little longer lol.

I wouldn't feel safe riding on multifit wheels that have then been REdrilled to add a third set of holes. That is assuming it is 4/5 multifit already (as most Eurolines are). If it only has the 4x114.3 then I see no problem adding the 4x100 inbetween them

Alright, well, this set is for sale now I guess.
Tim is being extremely good about this and is hunting down another set of wheels for me, out of his own pocket!
