Evasive motorsports have plenty of specs for sale. Well im sure they have to order it for you but Volk's most aggressive set for the Ce28n is offered in 17x9 et 43 or 48 for 5x100 <-- dont remember which offset. But I actually did some research out of curiosity. Also, you can get a pretty decent set of Work CR Kai for less then 1500.

BTW, they have your exact set for sale.

yea but +43 is kinda weak lol... and i wasnt looking for kai's i wanted bronze ce's... used because if i wanted new it would be well over 2k bucks and i wasnt having that lol

http://www.rayswheels.co.jp/cgi-bin/...odelName=CE28N

look at the link above for the offset sizes that volk offers...you'll see i only have 2 options... and since the subaru market dominates the 5x100 race wheel +44 is the more common size to find and order for the US market. the +38 is a little harder because back then the hole hella flush super offset thing wasnt a fad.. more so tucking tire.. so your gona see more +44's then +38 naturally... and where does EM have listed my wheel? i checked and didnt find it?

well most volks WILL clear BBKS if ur offset is low enough or depending on the wheel... if u have your basic +42-+50 offset te37 or ce28n it wont... but that also depends on the wheel.. ce28ns have spoke curvature which gives them greater flex on BBK set ups but te37s do not.. they are always str8 except for the new concave setups which never have bbk problems... te37s will give u the biggest problem clearing BBKs but thats why u should always order the lowest offset thats still functional for your set up... thats why now a days volks is making lower offsets because BBKs are becoming more the norm and of course they have to cater to new cars also. the only time u really have BBK issues are with 16s and smaller since 17 and up the offsets or decent enough not to worry about because lets face it.. who buys a dam 17x7 volk lmao ...thats like volks on a budget lol ... not 16x7 is another story because thats normal but just giving u an example...

man I heard so many different theories. Ribo, says the a-disc/etc is what makes a difference. Some people say that higher offsets allow more room for bbks and now you say lower offsets allow more room for bbks. Haha, who to believe. I have no idea.

well just use your basic knowledge of wheels lol... if the wheels face and body are closer to the brakes would it makes sense that most higher offsets clear? u really need to look a the wheels design. because for example the same specs on a ce28 might not be the same in brake clearence as a te37

Sorry to hear that you've had so many problems with Dezod products. I personally haven't ordered anything from them yet since many of the products they sell can be had for cheaper and with better shipping rates from other places. With that said I've been looking forward to a Dezod S1 Turbo kit at some point in the future.

With respect to clutches, in the GM world ACT clutches seem to be desired over many of the others. Some people had expressed issues of various types with their Comp Clutches. Because of this I was thinking about going with an ACT clutch when the time comes.

In Saturns the Fidanza Flywheels were known for warping, do the tC versions exhibit the same issues?

I ordered two things from Dezod, they have been fine so far. But yea, I know one bad experience can dramatically dictate people's trust. In reality its naturally hard to trust someone after one bad mistake.

Well, I still find it hard to believe we are being held accountable for an item we did not manufacture. See the CC failure thread here for the complete record.

Also, if fighting for Peter to get a replacement for free is a crime, we are guilty. Consequently, Peter has been offered the opportunity to get a clutch from another manufacturer, but it's his choice on what he wants to do.

I go to bat for my customers ALWAYS. I have and always will. It disgusts me to see us get crucified for going an extra mile to HELP a customer and then to get slammed for it. Actually, it's discouraging and quite frankly ridiculous.

the car will temporarily be revealed at scion exposed in april with most cosmetic mods complete. and ill be updating my build thread or this one soon. if not ill just merge them lol
