Daily Driven CE28's ???
 
So i got a set or CE28's. 18X10.5 F and 18X9.5 Rear. My question is how many people daily drive on sexy rims such as my own. I fear curbge and genereal damage and was just curious how many of you guys daily on your sexy rims. Thanx in advance.

Staggered, eh? Well I'll leave that alone and only say that I'm sure a lot of people DD spendy rims, just watch out where you park and take them off in the winter!

why'd you stagger them?

I ran LE37's "daily" with no issues. Its all a matter of paying attention while driving. I had 2-1,000 mile road trips on mine, numerous runs at the track, cruising, etc... with no issues. I never did drive it through bank drive throughs though. Always had that one fear.

I will be running 18x9 Chrome Advan RS's "daily" this year.

I wouldnt worry about it if I were you. Just pay attention.

The car dosent see winter, its garaged and obviously i cant rotate the wheels, but thats not my point. I still have my MR bbs's but i also have wide fenders and i think itl look goofy with the stockers. Maybe i should get 2 9.5"ers for the front for the sake of rotating them???

I plan to run some Advans daily and just be very careful.

For those of you who know little about the handling dynamics of an AWD car, I'll break it down for you:

An all wheel drive car with a 50% torque split at the center differential will wear out the front tires first. Why? Because an AWD car uses the front tires MORE than the rear. The front tires have to steer and accelerate at the same time. The rear tires only have to accelerate, and thats about it. This is why it would be beneficial, to have MORE rubber in the front! Instead of understeering, it would have more of a neutral stance, or even some oversteer, since the rear has less grip, and front has more, where it needs it.

These reasons, along with the fact the front fenders have more room for wider tires, are why many cars equiped with AWD run wider tires in front.

well in that picture it looks like evasive is running stock fenders. maybe it wouldn't be so wise to drive with those wheels on a daily basis while running that much camber?

staygold Mar 29, 2007 12:05 PM
