i need to know how to get my hands on this...

hit uyp codyace here on NICO, he sells the whole plug and play kit for $105 shipped, and comes with everything you need to your your entire KA AC on a SR.. you just need to tell him what SR bracket you have as the AC compressors differ slightly between red tops and black tops...

^^Thanks man!!!

SO, guys, i did a little test fit of the new CST Zero-1 Hypers... in case you guys don't know, the sizes of all four are 17x9.5 +15.. the tires, with thier MASSIVE stretch (which i can't stand), are Yokohama Prada Sped 2 205/45/ZR17...

and for the pics.. and maybe a caption or two...

peek a boo...

i know, less stretch and MOAR LOE!!!



pretty good fitment!!!





total package!!!

i think about 3/4 lower, and some wider tires, at LEAST 235's with a roll and it would look OK... not too sure about how the gunmetal clashes with the black.. might grow on me... who knows....

i almost forgot....

i just got my truck back yesterday, damn thing runs AWESOME, and the audio PUMPS.... two JL W3 12's and Polk Audio all around, powered by two separate Alpine amps in a custom rack sounds as awesome as it rides!! so i gave her a quick bath in the rain, just couldn't stand the 2 months of sitting grunge all over it... then when i parked it, i had to take a pic of the stupidity that is my car "collection...

1995 S10 Ext Cab - 1999 Silverado Ext cab - 1997 Audi A4 quatto 2007 - mustang GT/CS..

and my dog posting up by the fastest car on the "lot"

either way, I'm pretty anxious for the 4th to come around, so i can see how the new truck tows the 40... another 3 hour trip to a drift event....

oh, and someone buy the S10 for $2k, and the Audi for $3K!!!!

YES! 235 or 245 would look hella sexy if you dropped it 1/2" with some aero

I like the battles better with white cars personally, some bronze P45Rs with a couple degrees of camber dropped would be sechs.

they're not battles!!! LOL... they're CST Zero-1's... what the battles are knock off of... straight from japanland.... guess the knock offs are getting good if you can't distinguish them from the knock offs LOL...

yeah, i think i'll go with a 235/245 on both the rotas, and the CST's...

i want to drop another 3/4, but i'm kinda hesitant, as i don't want to "droop" my spings in the back at the loss of ride quality and handling...

gonna be pricey at the tire place, "yes sir, i would like a two sets of directional summer tires, one set at 235/245/45/ZR17, and another set at 235/245/40/ZR18, thanks, and here's my soul!!!"

i want the truck but no moniez.

btw i did more research and found that battles and zero-1s ARE the same wheels with a minor difference. zero-1s are forged and battles are cast. made by the same people in the same place though
