Did the wheels come with a center cap or are you buying your own..?
Thanks Cake, it might be a little longer than two weeks now to put the wheels on the car, my girls chain guides on her maxima just went bad today...If its not one thing its the %^&%$ other.CakeDaddy wrote:ohhhh yeah! I think the Cakedaddy has been trumped! Can't wait to see'em on your car. Nice choice!
Take your time my man. Is your car lowered?infinitedrift wrote:

ok ill keep that in mind!maxnix wrote:Falkens are, at best, merely adequate. The tire itself is responsible for 90% of the performance, so don't skimp there.
Be sure the minimum factory load and speed ratings are at least achieved. Another interesting factor is the weight of the tire. If your present tire + wheel combination is 50 lb. and the new one is 55 lb., a 10% increase of rotating unsprung mass has a significant effect on performance.
Should be something like 657 Kg. stamped on the inside.
I look at pictures of your car and it resembles mine lowered with stock rims, but the 275s x10's concern me a little, but I figure as long as you have atleast a 3-4 mm deeper offset than me in the rear you should be fine, otherwise you may have to flip your rear wheel fender a bit.

How does 245 35 20 and 275 35 20 sound, their going to be Falken FK452's, hopefully it will still give me that low look.

I bet the suspension is wrecked too.
Must handle like snot on a hot skillet.
Question: Why do you post with crap a$$ remarks like this? A lot of us take pride in the way our cars look. We all know how you feel and do not need a cruel reminder. Give us custom car guys a break. I aint mad at'cha, but....damn Lighten up.maxnix wrote:

CakeDaddy,The reason he posts that 'crap a$$ remark' is because the moderators let him get away with it. we -as non-sponsors- are suppose to ignore the insults and just let him act that way. the rally sad part is that I think this exact issue - maxnix make a rude & unifromed comment on a bagged car - has come up in the last month on anothe site.CakeDaddy wrote: Question: Why do you post with crap a$$ remarks like this?

Honestly, would you and your stupid comments just go away. In the year I have been here I have read over 100 of your posts and not one of them is constructive or has any sort of content that adds to the good of this forum. All you do is post trashing someone for doing something that you don't approve of or agree with. If you want to start your own forum where you complain all the time then do that, MaxnixTheA$$.com is available, I checked, but until then do what your mother obviously never taught you, if you don't have something nice and useful to say, shut it.maxnix wrote:

There are no struts on the car....I just welded the rear axle and the front suspension at that height. The car rides really rough without struts, but it's well worth it so I can drive at that height. My next mod is to weld the steering together so the car will only go straight so that I don't rub the front fenders. I'll only be able to go in a straight line, but that's the price you pay.maxnix wrote:I bet the suspension is wrecked too.
Actually, as long as I don't go over 5 MPH and I don't make any turns, it rides more like phlegm on a piece of buttered toast.....but without jelly. Well, that's VIP..... ......maxnix wrote:Must handle like snot on a hot skillet.
