Default My daily almost done

Well its almost done. I am waiting on a hard top and then I am going to make some final measurements for a new set of wheels and it will be done for a while.

Wheels are:

17x9.5 +38 front and rear w 255/40/17 all around

Future wheels possibly 17x9 to 17x10 with a offset of +20 to +10. Still need to make some final measurements before I order anything.

Let me know what you think.

I really like it. I know I won't be the last to say it but it looks like it could go lower and you might be planning on lowering it too. Even J's racing runs their car lower than that. I'm a huge fan of rpf1s so if they stayed I wouldn't be disappointed.

lol....i would go lower, but here it Atlanta there is WAY to much construction, plus with a 30 miles each way drive to work and school, its not practical.

Once I do get another car to daily, this will be a little lower and a little more un-reliable...cough cough turbo....lol

as for the wheels, I got them cause they are cheap. I didnt want to spend 2-3K on wheels that I werent sure on the offset. I am measuring the wheel space and talking with a few people and hopefully finalizing the new offset and my new wheels soon.

One day it will be done....then it will be back to the drawing board to make more plans..lol

THANK YOU!!! finally someone who understands my dilema. Im currently running 9"+45 with a 205/45 and a 9.5"+38 with a 245/40 on a stock body. Im looking to move my 9.5"+38 up front with a 215 and put 10"+18 rear with a 225 or a 235. Im rolled and pulled 10mm front and rear with fender tabs relocated and fenderliners modified. Im just debating if i want to do 10"+38 front with a 225 and 10"+18 with a 235 rear. Its all about getting perfect offsets. I see your running RPF1's like me so im just giving you the specs im going to be running so you could possibly work out your specs from mine. Good luck acheaving the look your going for.

Pics.

9"+45 with a 205/45 running -1 camber and 9.5"+38 with 245/40 running -3 camber
