my, arent we the bust bee!!

 

to those of you with BBK and mesh wheels: (as of now FlintMica)

Did you have to buy spacers to make the wheels fit? im still unsure on whether a Willwood or Rotora kit will fit my wheels without the need for spacers.

 

no i dont have any spacer's on my wheels and my kits the 330mm kit (13") and it's really really close. the offset on my wheels up front are +42 i think, and its a 8.5" wide wheel. if all goes to plan i should get my stockies back either tomorrow or friday to test if they fit over the bbk

 

so theoretically your kit wouldn't fit on my wheels because their 8" wide and at a +35 offset....

 

yeah im un sure now too..

mine are 18x7.5 +37 offset.. i think...

 

you will fit i have 18x7.5 et 38 and i have plenty of clearance with the Stoptech kit

 

so..... Where are those BBK pics davedave? lolz

 

lol still on the camera i havent had the time lately to upload them, i've been spending too much time picking out my new car

 

lol, oh you are trading ur tc?

 

possibly, gotta wait to see how the next visit at teh dealer goes friday

 

sheesh! everyone's leaving am i next????

 

well im not gone yet, i have to see how friday goes.

they are telling me so far with no trade in (hypothetical) and buying the car at sticker (yea right) it will cost me 6500 to get to where i wanna be which isnt a big deal once i sell my parts

 

I HAVE DIBS ON THE COILOVERS!

 

Werd.

 

you got it man, ill let you know when the time comes. i need your stock stuff is that cool?

 

you got it man, ill let you know when the time comes. i need your stock stuff is that cool?

 

crap! i dont have my stock shocks and struts! i have stock springs... if it's a go i can just get some shocks/struts

 

we'll see i think there might be some local interest, if i can sell everything local ill be set

 

but i called dibs... haha its cool. enough threadjacking. show off those brakes people!

 

to everyone, its not the offset that makes the difference its the design of the spokes.

I had flint micas wheels custom made to fit a bbk, my new wheels are like that.

it depends on the wheel NOT THE OFFSET. think about how spacers work, they push the wheel further out without changing the wheel face, now think about a different offset wheel, all it does is change the location of the face on the wheel barrel. once again IT DEPENDS ON THE WHEEL NOT THE OFFSET. you could have a 18x7 et+45 that will fit but then a 18x9.5 et+20 that wont. it depends on the build of the wheel. hope this is clear now.
