Re: FS: VOLK TE37V - 15x8.5 -5 - graphite face/diamond lip

If it's ok to ask, I was wondering if you had any clearance issues with this size on the front of your car?

Thanks

Re: Wheel size question

Seems like a lot of money and effort to make them 1/2" wider. You're already stretched with 195 width tires, so I'm not sure why you would want to do this. They need refinishing anyway and it may cost about the same to go a little wider. I was curious since I am already stretched with a 195 on...

Re: Wheel size question

Half and inch on both sides will make your wheel a 15x9. That will fit but will require hammering and moving your caster. Will have to roll the fenders for sure or flare em. My fenders have already been rolled and slightly pulled as well as the inner well hammered to clear them being a 15x8 -14 off...

Wheel size question

I have a set of front wheels in the size of 15x8 -14 offset with Falken 912s in 195-50-15 and I have a chance to have them rebarreled. I was wondering if I could add an additional half inch to the backside without any negative drawbacks? Also, at the moment I barely rub the edges of my bumper which ...

Re: Stupid clean 89 civic Si EF9 conversion for trade

Damn, that is one of the cleanest EFs I've ever seen. Is that a J's Racing style front lip? I never seen that in carbon, looks real nice.

Re: Watanabe and SSR Riverge reps 4x114

Something in low offset 15x8 and 15x8.5. I don't want to pull or run flares and want to keep the body lines subtle. Right now, I have 15x8 -12et and 15x85 -20et at the moment and that is the maximum I can run.

Thanks

Re: Watanabe and SSR Riverge reps 4x114

Would 14x9 fit the stock fenders with just a roll? These so far are the best Watanabe replicas I have seen.

Re: K24a2 AE86

I was toying with the idea of doing a K20 also. I really like the fact that it is squared so it can be revved pretty high. It helps Ballade Sports has the entire kit to convert a K series to RWD, thought it is a bit pricey. I guess the concern I had was how much clearance there is with the crossmemb...
