my near "perfect storm" (vr6storm)

Recommended Posts

 

:roll: You're supposed to measure to the wheel CENTRE! the wheel lip distance will vary with different wheel sizes!

 

If I've got 15" wheels on, and then put 17" wheels on, my car will be no lower, but the distance from the arch to the wheel rim will be smaller 'cos the tyre profile will be smaller and the wheel larger! The distance to the wheel CENTRE will not have changed though... :D

 

YEAH, but - Roddy's got his stock 15" Solitudes & I've got my stock 15" Speedlines, must be the same size to within a micron or two !!!

 

:roll: Unless you're telling me that all 15" wheels have different diameters...

 

So -65mm should be pretty accurate.....

OK, fair enough... I didn't know you both had the same size wheels on :roll: and was pointing that out just in case you didn't and hadn't realised.... :)

 

Just trying to be helpful... :?

 

-65 is quite a big drop... she looks great! 8)

There you go Roddy, not "near perfect" anymore, with those rear clusters - "PERFECT".

Roddy , very nice indeed (jealously !) . An excellent reflection of what I know has been your considerable TLC .

 

Does look wonderful on the Koni's - but was hardly 'bad' before .

 

Need another suitably posed pic from you now to replace the existing (and now almost longstanding) one as my desktop wallpaper & to keep up todate. That have a pic of your car instead of my own maybe says it all !

just remember paul its taken me almost 2years to get rid of the 4x4 effect so you've got plenty time to sort out yours and well after pau1's efforts with photo-shop it looks like those lights could well be added to the list.....am i getting the modding bug or what :wink:

 

also quite fancy being a rebel and getting a kamei grille spoiler thingy :lol:

thanks for the compliments mark but i'm pretty sure your C is in a lot better condition than my storm is in

 

i know what you mean that it was hardly bad before the koni's but it was just a bit too high for my liking and it didin't inspire me with confidence in the twisties or bends.........after the koni's its almost like its on rails!!!

 

 

and any pic in particular that you want the hi-res version of??

Looking great Rodders ...

 

I think the original wheels look soooo cool with the car lowered onto them 8)

 

Are you going to leave the back light clusters alone then?
