Hold on...I have your twin in black

 

ahahaha better angle

 

**** sorry i was thinking about steve cuz he texted me not too long ago haha i know the names DAMMIT!!

 

Lol mine used to look like a stink bug too.

 

hey socal, nationals for pankration fighting are coming up on the 25th at santa ana. its pretty big since its nationals... you guys should come support me.

 

with the bump stops in it still rubs, cause mine rubbed without the bump stops, but when they were in it never rubbed once no matter how many people or weight inside.

did you cut yours or something? also you could do the drag bag mod for $18 and it wont rub, thats what i did cause i cut my bump stops

 

I didn't cut them or anything. It didn't rub with the stock tires I shouldn't have bought the 235 width

 

ohhh, 245's ouch. those are heavier as well... when i was looking they were like 1.5lbs heavier than the 235's thats why i didnt get em.


well the football mod is still an option... its not hard like a bump stop either it just feels like it got stiffer all of a sudden,


heres a pic. what i did was inflated them then just let the air go to 0psi or neutral then they just act like bag stops instead of bump... then when your at the track put 20+ psi in em and thats how zzp gets those amazing 60ft times.



those are 9.87 @ walmart peewee size is perfect.

 

I need to put something in my sig about my wheels and springs, I no joke get about 2 pm's asking either, what springs are you lowered on? How do you like them? Where did you get them? Are your wheels painted? How did you do it? Are they powdercoated? How much? And they ALWAYS start out with, yo dude or hey man.

 

I get the same thing. Especially about the color wheels I have and if they're painted or powdercoated how much how long etc. lol

and Chris I tried footballs but they popped

 

hmmm i have the pee wee leather ones for like 2mon now. i dont know how long, ever since we were all talking about em


mine have been taking a beating i guess, but it doesent rub anymore at all :shrug:

glad i didnt get 245's i guess.

 

Maybe I overinflated them but like 10 miles in they went POP!

And I meant to say 235's I shouldn't bought.

The stock 225 size was meant to be. lol

 

What exact tire size are you running and is it running on the inside out outside edge of the tire? I'm running some of the 235/40-18 Z1 Star Specs on my stock wheels but when I was thinking of getting new wheels was looking at 245/35-18s. Seems a few people with aftermarket wheels and suspension are running 245/40 in that size but the 245/35 are a lot closer in overall diameter to the stock tires.

 

agreed, but i dont think you will like the 35 series... are cars already feel cheap as it is when we hit bumps

 

im not a BM2 =p
CM2 =construction mechanic
i drill at pendelton for the most part
by camp talega where they they
filmed heart break ridge i think

 

My car told me I have to service my brakes lol.

 

tell her[car] who is the baws rissa
umm unless its a boy

 

Since the sidewall aspect ratio or "series" is just a percentage of tread width, with the wider 245/35 tire you end up with a sidewall that's essentially the same diameter as the stock 225/40 tires. That's already on the somewhat thin side but other factors like the particular tire's sidewall design can also have a big impact on ride harshness. I don't care so much about appearance as I do about performance/handling, and it looks like there's a much better chance of fitting a 245/35-18 under the car with the proper offset than the much taller 245/40-18.

 

It is a boy lol.

 

Eric i have 235/40/18 NT05's and it's rubbing the outside right rear on big bumps


yeah her car has *****. No Homo!

 

lol yeah Spencer has big *****


NO HOMO!!!

 

Lol he does now! haahah

 

typical so cal talk
so rad brahhh

 

yea so they can monitor 4 diff things at once haha
i only need one and wide band whenever i get some gauges, that 3 A pillar is sexy and i think the 2 in the dash is pretty dope too, custom ****
i dont have a pic of a few i seen, but u may know what im talking about, they are were the speedo and rpm's are

 

That was the other tire and size that I was considering trying out. I'll have to compare some specs to the Dunlops and some other similar class tires. I haven't had any rubbing issues but then again I'm at stock ride height. The only problem with that size is that they're too wide for the stock wheels and really need a minimum 8" width wheel. The grip is great but I have noticed a touch more torque steer which can sometimes be expected when there's too much sidewall deflection.
