How are these..... New RIMS and tires....

 

/\ ebay specials?

 

^ COLD!

 

^ wow +1

 

sorry, I didn't mean that to be mean. That's the only place I see ADR wheels and Lexani tires. where else do you buy them? I'd rock a set with A/S tires for winter...cheap is good

 

Those arent lexxan tires there nexxen and they happen to be pretty good...edge racing carries them....

well then... if Edge carries them

 

 

yah, just put some xx's in the name and you're good to go.

 

just the lip

 

Good GAWD, man!! Those are stickin' out a bit, aren't they? I think, though, that you've barely, technically met the minimum requirement of the tread being under the fender.

 

yup no tread shows......should be adding some camber shortly once i get the rear control arms installed. That should help tuck them a bit

 

hummm... calling out for a wide body kit (wider arches).

 

Those are some extremely low offsets. Looks like you could go lower and use some more negative camber.. Any more pics?

 

Yeah, but then he'd need wider tires, and knowing Rally, then he'd need 10 inch rims, and we'd be back at the same place.

 

yah, you're right. 10" rims belong on my G.

 

Indigo just shipped out a set of rear control arms for me....getting them installed before i head to H2ointernational with konky...which of course will call for a photoshoot. Once I get some camber in the rear and finally get around to setting some camber up in front on my camber plates....i will be going lower

I'm working on customizing a set of OEM rear arches to attempt to extend them just a little bit(nothing crazy like the currently available wide arches/kits). I'm trying to achieve the pulled fender technique seen on cars with metal fenders.....but obviously with our plastic arches. Hopefully it works out

 

why not try fiberglass a copy of the current arches and just painting it

 

Too much work for a one-off project. It would require making a mold of an extended arch version for each side. If i planned on making multiple copies....that would definitely be the way to go.

Since I'm just making a copy for my car, 'pulling' the plastic arches should do the trick. This post has an example of what I'm looking to do.....before and after pics of a pulled fender (in metal). It has the same vertical lip that our arches has......you can pull that outwards to allow more room. http://www.motoringunderground.com/f...8&postcount=26

 

Sorry for the low-quality pics. I really love these wheels and the ride.

 

The most recent pics.....2/3rds of the way done restoring the centercaps. Just one more piece left

 

baller.

 

finally new shoes, and now i can load my mini on this thread!! yay =)
