whoops, double post.

 

Purple, nice color choice!

Looks nice. Someone needs to start a company that makes replicas of Skylines like the companies that make the Shelby Cobra. They're beautiful cars for sure.

 

Did you sell your 240?

 

Hey guys selling my wheels if any one is interested (going 18's). Gram Lights 57c 17x9.5 +22, 245- 40-17 BFG KDW's. I can separate them if you wan't PM me if you are interested. (Sorry for the repost of the picture.)

 

Hey Adam, thanks for picking up the wheels today!

Those gram lights are hot Adam, but skip going to 18 if you're going bigger, get some 20" chromes, and slap some RA-1s on them!

And Alan, you need to post some pictures of the Porsche with those TE37s on it, everyone else will agree with me, they look great.

 

Yeah, especially the forum slutbags.

RA-1's on the street FTW!

 

Whoa, repost. This site is so slow sometimes...must run on macs!

 

I will get some pics next time I am in town in a couple weeks if he doesnt.

 

Only as slow as the driver... I mean, user.

Haha, sounds good Bryant.

 

yah i was looking through that article and it makes no since, those g's seem kinda weak. wasnt the f1 car only pulling like 1.6 g's and same with the super cart? i thought those were both capable of closer to 3 g's and they also rated the f1 car at 450 whp and said it was slower than the other open wheeled car but that has to be bllsht because the 1980's f1 cars were the turbo ones that were making like 1600 hp right? and some of the vendors do have fast cars, the ams time attack car was pulling like 1.7 g's during gt live and thats on dot tires while you are on take off slicks right?

 

Hey I'm going to replace the tires on my work wheels? I have the falken avenis rt-615 and would be nice to have something that I could get on track with but also have something that I could drive in if its raining outside with getting sideways

I kinda like the pirelli p zero nero m+s

 

G's have more to do with mechanical grip than tires. AMS has a full caged race car. I have a car seat in the back.

I think they were reporting more G's than that on the road course. The skidpad was less, probly because of the low speeds, but they were over 2 on the road course.

Just because the 80's F1 cars were running 1600 hp, doesn't mean that's the same motor that is currently being run.

 

Those are all-seasons. Which is cool, but even some Kuhmo Ecsta MXs or SPTs will be perfect in the rain, and high performance summer tires instead of all-seasons. But if all-seasons are what you want to run anyway (it's what I have) then go for those or the Kuhmo ASXs, IMO. Plus, you're in an Evo, you have to REALLY screw up to get uncontrollably sideways, and would probably have to have some RA-1s on the car .

I also am assuming you meant without getting sideways... Actually, if you want tires that are super in the rain and on track, get the OEM ones again, if you can afford to replace them as often as needed.

 

These avenis rt-615 will let ya get sideways, but I'm talking about rain etc.. I had these tires on when I was hit in the snow and there uuhh not to great like a sled on ice

Well insurance going to give some more money towards tires cuz they only replaced one on the dr side rear and i put it to the front when I balanced and the bish pulls to the dr side now and I talked to the insurance n say uuuhh no **** that ish. So I don't care on price on tires this is all going in the ol insurance case & let my lawyer deal with that.

So do they make the Advan A046 in 245/45/17 ?

 

I don't belive they do make them in that size in the U.S. I am really happy with my BF Goodridge KDW's. Decent dry and wet grip. I am running 4 degress of camber in the front and I'm blown away at how well they are wearing!!! Great tire imo.
