front 16x7 +15

[Repo Man]

Freaking awesome. I love it!

How are you adjusting camber?

[chompsticks]

You said being that low you have CV binding at low speeds?

[501]

You said being that low you have CV binding at low speeds?

yes it causes just little shimmy under acceleration between 10-20mph itermittenly...doesnt happen all the time, just certain combos like turning and ccelerating

also had my alingment checked today

frt camber -5/16
rear camber -7
rear toe in 1"3/16ths
thrust is -5/16ths

going this low and agressive is not for the faint of heart

i think i may get 5k miles out of my tires

[501]

How are you adjusting camber?

me and a couple others are using camber shims from Dan at realcamber.com

and i am still working on fitment and experimental camber stuff

[501]

Freaking awesome. I love it!

thanks!! i love it too

[Zero2Endless]

YEAHHHHH. DOPE AS FUDGE.

Now I REALLY want coil overs...I'm assuming that's what you have bolted-on LoL.

[chompsticks]

Hmmm... Just wondering and not trying to get into a huge debate about this, but... Can cv binding lead to premature wear on the cv joints?

I really want to go lower and am thinking about getting some Ksports and installing the fronts to get that extra half inch.

What is your ride height again from ground to fender?

[501]

yes it can cause premature wear...my thoughts not enough for them just to go boom...

i am at 23" ground to fender up front.

i will probably raise it another 1/8" just to see if that will cure the cv joint binding.

[chompsticks]

Hmmm.... I dunno if I will spring for Ksports or not then because I drive too much and too hard for my own good... 20,000 miles and a new set of tires already... Although getting another inch lower would be superb!

[chompsticks]

Fronts I am right at 24 in the fronts and the rears I am at 23 and 3/4-7/8 eyeballin it. All I gotta say is that I have been working at it to get the fronts down another inch from stock settings on tanabes.

[Zero2Endless]

You should do the other side of the rear shot. It really emphasizes on the window graphic...which let's face it...is the number 1 design cue on the Cube.

[Zero2Endless]

16x8 + 0

[AZhitman]

Tire size, not wheels.

Good work on the camber - I posted an article on adjusting the camber on the Cube (and Versa), since I was one of the first to drop a Cube (3 weeks after the first one arrived at the dealer ).

Makes me regret my 17's. Goin' shoppin' - brb!

[CubeNoob]

Noob... real te37s? How big too?

all ill say right now is.

yes they are real and a they are 15's. gonna see how they fit before i give out too much info hahaha


and to OP i can see your running a 195 in the back but what are the other specs?

for example 195/xx/16 rears and XXX/XX/16 fronts

[Zero2Endless]

I put my wheels up for sale...I'm going to put pics up in the morn. I'm going to sell them with tires for 800 the tires only have like 6k on them they are basically brand new!

[501]

tire size is 195/50/16 front and rear on my set up

[Nismo V]
