Stuff's here!

PColav6 · 02-11-2008, 03:57 PM

Well my order came into today!!

BUT...AM forgot to ship the springs

So I called them up and talked to a guy there and he said they'd be sending out a set for me, so I guess I can expect those next week some time..gave me no trouble whatsoever, great customer service.

As for the wheels..here's a taste, it's too dark now and the car's filthy, I'll wash it in the morning and take some pics then (with the huge 4x4 stance)

These things really dwarf the fucking stock 6 tires..seems to be a larger diameter too, so you think the speed is off?
And 1 concern, the lips of the wheels seem to jut out a few mm from the tire's sidewall, the tires are all at 39PSI, is this normal?

But..let me say it..I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS DAY FOR OVER A FUCKING YEAR!

HELL YEAH!

PureStang · 02-11-2008, 06:42 PM

its actually not the rim design thats making it stick out like that..its the tire. my friend has the same size fr500's and he has nitto's or bfg drs and they dont stick out like that....

Steeda97 · 02-11-2008, 08:45 PM

I think he put them on the car, just isn't taking pictures yet cuz the cars dirty. haha.

PureStang · 02-12-2008, 12:21 AM

from the looks of the pics that he posted...he has put them on cause he was comparing them to the stock front tires..

PColav6 · 02-12-2008, 05:50 AM

Lol, yeah they're on the car guys..but it's filthy, and the tires/wheels are kind of messy as well...so I'll be back shortly.

PColav6 · 02-12-2008, 07:10 AM

isnt it crazy how even though your new wheels/rims are taller than your old ones, the 4x4 look is more apparent with the new set-up? mine was like that too...always boggles me...must just be a visual trick or something.

The front end does look high in person though...the ground clearance is insane.

AM shipped the springs today and said it would arrive in 3 business days...so Friday or monday?
