I dont think fitment in the rear is going to be an issue, i have a set of +20 wheels that fit in the rear fine.

gangster. This thread is full of so much win. Can't wait to see all the goodies on there!!![]()
oh man thats so nice!
I'm kinda sketched out now... made my last big purchase for the lude... Hopefully it comes through... 1k for a factory equipped LSD cable trans... ouch! We'll see how this plays out... at the least i've got Paypal on my side!
scratch that... I had to call the company... they don't have any of the said transmissions in stock! F*ck this car is being a total bitch...
also scratch the wheels, however i did get some wheels for the lude from goodwin racing, the bronze ones from the earlier pictures same everything but in stock...
Also by a stroke of luck Jared (rustlude87) has sourced an LSD equipped tranny with a dodgy 1st gear for 130bucks! WINNING! Got my tires yesterday, wheels will be here next Tues and the suspension will be here mid march... This thing is finally starting to come together!
I'm jelly!!!!
Thanks guys,
Drove the white lude to my dads house to swap out to the red lude... let me just say this, I can not wait to get this car feeling better. With the broken trans the poor trans is literally knocking around in there... I cant wait to get this thing going again! The power in this car still feels great, and will be way better when I can lay the hammer back down on it. Also the suspension that is currently on the car drives me CRAZY! It literally is so fucked that having the new suspension on it is going to be amazing...
My wheels are slated to be here on tuesday so hopefully i'll be able to get the tires mounted and the wheels balanced before the weekend. I'm pretty excited! Its going to be alot of wheel!
So my wheels came in and i got them mounted... but not yet installed...
15x8 konig et +25 in Full Anodized bronze
205/50/15 Dunlop Z1 star specs!
Just a little stretch... I don't care what anyone is going to say, but this 8inch wheel fits this tire perfectly!
btw, NO these aren't really Volk CE28Ns, just damn good copies... Yes the wheels really do weigh 12.4lbs per wheel and if you have really good peepers... Yes those are 949 racing valve stems!

RAVS FTW!!!! Nice wheels!! Shit's gonna look sick!! You going out the Proper Posture meet on the 4th?
Weight with tires, only 33lbs (pending how accurate my scale is!!!)
idk, i won't have my legit suspension yet so i'm debating... I'm going to try and mount these babies up tonight pending i don't get blown away! We'll see how it fits on the rear of the car with out more low...
sorry for the crappy camera phone pictures i forgot the big camera at the house...
Enjoy!

love it!!! Needs moar lowz now!!!![]()
It is coming my friend... Damn near countdown almost! after seeing benny's car, it seems i'll be able to go as low as i need without making crazy top hats... I did have some rubbing in the left rear... but not to bad... Rears are already rolled... Fronts aren't but we've got big fenders and plenty of camber to keep those little guys going good. Soon, i'll need to make a trip to NE... Jared?
Have you done the camber mod to the front upper arms like mine?? can get -4 degrees from that without major surgery!!
Not yet... i should be able get enough as is...
camber makes huge difference to front end grip suggest you do it won't take long!![]()
Hahaha, trust me, i know all about said camber!!! I'm going to try and figure out a way to do some kind of offset bushing in the rear as well as modify the rear top hats for more camber, something these cars could use alot more off!
