That's my 7G love the taillights and the front looks like a certain series of JUN Aero ......
so far that's a Ford bronco laminar tranny cooler, a Chrysler infinity interior amp I pulled out of a sebring (lots of wiring but I pulled it off) 15×7 American Racing Estrellas , Sharpie gauges, speakers, and I have big plans believe me
Nah just the front bumper where I cracked it. I sprayed the whole car back at the end of 08' so my paint is still very good.Quote:

those to be exact i decided to buy some cheap used tires to test fit the wheels on the car... i went with what greddy recomended since i honestly was lost... tires are 225/40/18

granted its still just a test fit and i am not entirely sure if im comfortable with them... if weather permits i may try both of them on this weekend..
Looks like those tires saw some 4 wheeling previously. lol
Am I the only person that doesnt like the "stretched" tire look?
As for the thread..... Does a new inspection sticker count? lol... She passed today and im hoping to get her finally legal tomarrow.
lol i see what you mean, they were 30 bucks so i didnt really care all to much for the way they looked.. if for some reason im able to run the wheels in the rear good tires are the first thing im going to buy..Quote:

This is going to suck. I see at least 5 hours of sanding in my near future.
lol! ^^^
Join the club ;)
They do inspections every few yrs.... i usually just wait till the dmv tells me i need one. lol. But i was suprised that it passed since it has been sitting for a few months in a field. Just super excited. Hopefully tags tomarrow!
Valley8G,
I would recommend you dial in more negative rear camber, you can afford to run at least another -.5 to -.75 degree. It should help it tuck up more sufficiently. Are you planning to run fender flares, or no?
Valley, you need @ least an addition degree of neg. camber, and some fender rolling/shaving/pulling. offset is 20, size is 18x9.5 right?
i like the look valley but im not a huge fan of stretched tires i just dont think the lip of the wheel sticking out past the tire is that great of an idea
for example

oh man where can i get some of these?

So how much work is he going to do if he runs fender flares? cuz it looks like if he just rolls the rears, and adds some negative camber, it looks like it'll fit. LOOKS NICE, hmmmmmQuote:

But ^this is going way too far IMO SMH
Yea, it should fit nice with a little more camber (plenty of room to do so). With or without flares too. Though as it sits they would be beautifully flush with the jdm flares, though I would do a complete rear fender pull.Quote:

How the heck do you do a rear fender pull, and still keep the same contours so that the rear fender flares lines up nicely. I guessyou know what I'm after lolQuote:

Time, effort, patience...that is the only way.Quote:

Got an inspection today and then put my tinted tails and retrofits back on and later Installed a V6 TB and a CAI.
So its done by hand? dang.... so I assuming pulling means your actually stretching the metal? outwards? dang it, I might have to go to a body shop for that lolQuote:

lol, I was like, wait I know that g...
i pulled my rear fenders no problem ill get some detailed pics later tonight... the fronts you have to be careful with, because if you go to aggressive you will create a gap between the fender and the door. i will also take pictures of that lol. learned the hard way
You can always cut the fender lip too, I did that front and rear.
im still at the body shop working on my bumper. thank god they are sooo busy they are open 24hrs, i plan on stayin til at least 1am, did I mention, i gotta work at 6am.....fack!!!
I have pulled lots of those. Needed to be in Simi Valley (2.5hrs away for me) at 8am left shop at 4am to shower up change. Met up with the crew at 5am at gas station and drove away with truck and trailer (with race car on it), so hard to stay awake.Quote:

I would suggest 18x8.75 +35 with the same size tires.
Although thinking about it, depending how much camber you want to run up front you could run the +20 offset wheels. How much camber or how aggressive do you want your wheels?
i was thinking about having the face of the rim flush with the fenders..Quote:

Then drove the G the rest of the way to MODQuote:
