oh geez this is just a mess. i dont know what i'm gonna get.. i hear so many different things..

i know i can't put a donut on the front.. i already had a flat and had to switch the wheels around to put it on the back.. which btw i'm not doing it again.. i'll have them or my dad tow it.. it's a you know what to get them off after a dearlership put them on there to tight for me.

allycat you said it was rediculous to put them on for everyday driving... the reason i want them is 1. because i was in a car accident someone cut out in front of me i want a good pair, bc stock didn't grab worth Sh**.. and 2. they'll look awesome.. haha

i dont care how much i spend as long as they are going to work right and grab in all weather.

i want new rims anyway.. or paint my stock ones, idk yet..

 

No the difference is the TC knuckles have more reinforcing cast in. All the mounting points are the same. even the alignment specs are very similar between LSJ and LNF cars, only difference is LNF cars get .20 degrees more negative camber. Thats it.

 

Maven,

what if i got the ss/tc rims? would i still need the spacers?

 

All the parts needed to do the swap should run about $750+shipping from your choice of online parts store.
Compare that to at least$900+shipping for the Baer Track package.(which only has 2 piston calipers)

The only other alternatives that I know of is a caliper relocation bracket and 2 piece rotors like the Koni Challenge cars run, this a great setup too, but will easily run just as much the Brembos and will potentially cost more to service rotors over the life of the car. You could also build yourself a badass 130mm mount radial caliper system, but expect to pay north of $2000 for this.

 

yeah ok i take it back when i say i dont care how much i spend.. 2k is a little to much right now.. if i still worked full time then i'd go for it, but i'm not.. so i'm not even going to look into that as of now.. however maybe after i grad college..

 

The SS/TC rims look sick but those are gonna cost you a pretty penny too!

I'd also like to see the steering knuckles for the SC and the TC side by side cause I have a hard time believing they are the same since the brakes are so different. Besides the steering knuckles on the SC are weak as hell!!!

 

ehh whatev better than having stock rims. however i could custom paint them...

 

ALL Cobalt knuckles have the same contact points, you can put any cobalt knukle into any other cobalt

 

hey, look at that.. i'm on at work.. now watch they find the proxy i'm using and block it.. haha

 

LOL told ya!! If they find it then just find another one LOL

BTW with a proxy they can't really track what you're looking at either

 

cool, thats good to know.. i just called sutliff about when my balt should be done now there saying next friday, they have to put in the airbag and slap on the front bumper yet.. hopefully they are over estimating the time.. i want to drive my car!! i'm tired of driving a mini van!! lol

 

LOL SS/SC to a mini van LOL that's quite a jump

 

lol yeah your telling me!!!!! i hate auto.. and the things huge and the heat doesn't work right... it's a beater car.. haha i drove passed sutliff today and they moved the car so i can't see it anymore i'm guessing that it's almost done.. i'm praying it's almost done lol

 

im thinkin about going out to sonic tonight in lancaster, anyone else??

 

when is that?? if i ever get my car back i will..

duh never mind... "tonight" if i get the car back today i will what time

 

every thursday night, i usually go over around 7:45 so i can get a parking spot. if you decide to go thursday send me a PM and ill prob go.

 

I might try and get out to sonics thursday night. Ive only been up there once and enjoyed the food so I might see if the wifey wants to go. its less then an hour drive,

 

earlier would be a little nicer, i'll work something out i finally got the car back last night around 6ish. so this week would be a yes bc i wanna drive it! it's been a while haha

 

10 minutes above philly right here living in Levittown/Bensalem w.e. I was born raised in philly and where i live sucks haha... Loving my balt and loving everyone on this board. couldnt ask for a better crowd

 

Any of you PA guys know someone who would want my SS/SC? Only had 9k miles, and I need to get out of payments now.

 

how much are you looking for? and what area are you from?
