Guest Posted June 20, 2005 billinjahg60, yeh yeh, bet your not saying that when you need to get to 140/20mph in the blink of an eye.. :lol: Only thing is my my back end gets a little funny at those speeds slowing down. think the ratio needs adjusting?

coolrado 0 Posted June 20, 2005 just have to hope if they put balance weights on the inside of the wheels that they will clear those calipers :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted June 20, 2005 Congrats! They look rather nice... 8) On a related topic, If anyone has any Borbet C wheels in a 16x7.5" size which are 35mm offset, then they'll clear with only a 6mm spacer! My imported 40mm offset ones fit with the 11mm spacers I had made up for my 30mm offset ones. This is because (as I suspected) the dish of the 35/40mm offset C's is less than that on the 30mms which allows more clearance... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henny 0 Posted June 21, 2005 billinjahg60, NEVER forget to put your seatbelt on from now on, and don't let your passengers travel without theirs on too... ;) those brakes are fricking awesome and the first time you have to use 'em in anger to avoid a dangerous situation you'll be sooooo glad you got 'em! 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
