Just curious on why 18x9.5" and not 17x9" if limited to 255 tires??

Thanks, Troy

p.s. Looks good

 

Very nice!

 

Thanks again everybody!

I plan on eventually getting a BBK for the car and I know that only some 17" wheels will fit over some BBKs.

 

Mike …
The car is looking absolutely

!!!

 

^^^Hahaha, thanks. I just wish I had more time to work on it and get it done! The first stage of the vinyl hopefully will get done tonight if I can find the time. I will take/post pics when its done.

 

is there a purpose for the cf vents in the window other than vent air?

 

Nope, unless you want to include looks and providing an un-obsured hole for my Hot Lap timer to peek through .

If you have ever been on track with your rear windows up you have no doubt noticed the horrible and distracting wind buffering going on behind you. These vents eliminate that. Most track orgainzations require you to run with the front windows down and the rear ones up which is why the vents are worth it.

 

Did you have to roll your fenders to fit the 18x9.5 wheels?

 

I definitely hear you about having a lack of free time, man. Can't wait to check it out when she's finished!

 

The fenders were rolled to fit the old setup which was 18"x 9.5" Enkei NT03+M +27 offset with a 12mm spacer up front. These are a +28 offset with no spacers up front. I am guessing that the rears would still need to be rolled, but the fronts might not since they stick out 13mm less than the Enkeis did. 265/35/18s were also used on the Enkeis and I will be running 255/35/18s on these Volks.

 

I was looking over the NASA TT Rulebook and for some reason they don't allow rolled fenders, were you able to go under the radar with it or did they not care that you ahd them rolled?

 

Rolled fenders is actually a "no points" modification in NASA TT.

 

Oh alright, cool!

Thanks!

 

sick *** rims dude, where'd you get them from?

 

What front lip is this?
