Re: What size tire you think would work?

Also I think I had to change my hubs out 'cause of my Tranny swap, damn I can't remember though, 'cause I didn't do the labor...I went from HF tranny to Si tranny..that wouldn't make me have the hubs I could use eh?

Most likely you're still using the HF axles. My friend did a d16a6 swap ( my old motor that i sold him ) and he used his existing axles.

Re: What size tire you think would work?

Dude, don't get those rotors. You don't need crossdrilled and they are going to eat through pads like crazy. Just get some slotted rotors. If you really want cross and slotted i have a set for sale.

$415 with road hazard for the life of the tires.

Re: What size tire you think would work?

I run 205-40-17 on my 17's with a 2.5" drop all the way around. A camber kit is definetley needed, especially for the front. My tires were on for about a year and then I dropped it. After about 2 1/2 months I've had to replace my front tires because they are worn so much that it actually tore out a half inch ring all the way around the tire. Also, i had to cut my fenderwell because whenever i turned the tires gets sliced.

But, it looks awesome....

LOL Nice! Well, I barely have a 1 1/2in drop. You can see in my sig. I really don't wanna have to cut the fenders or get a camber kit if I don't have to. But I guess we will see.

Yea I saw those but was wondering if they are worth a shit? I asked the guy if he can get them for an HF and he didn't even know what HF was.
