Will Pwr - do you still have your E46 with the Volks?

 

sweet setup WILL PWR. what suspension are you running?

 

Nopes, sold the car and the wheels.

Thanks... Im running the HKS Hipermax RS coilovers.

 

LE37t 19x9.5, 19x10.5 +22et

 

Off the subject, which wheel locks are you guys using?

 

I was going to get Rays lugs but decided to be a ballar and bought a set of KICS Project R40 Racing Nuts w/locks instead

 

leemik, what size tires do you have?

 

245/35/19 front
285/35/19 rear

Car is lowered on a set of Cusco Zero-2 Ti's 1" to ~1.2"
Rear camber is corrected to factory specs via SPC arms
Fender is rolled

 

WILL PWR- that is such a coincidence! i just got a good deal on the same coilovers! how is the ride on daily drives? are any squeeking/ noises from the upper mounts? TIA

 

Nice lug lol.. I have that also

 

gawd, those lugs are expensive!

 

The ride on them are great! default setting is 20 (of the 30 total) clicks back form the stiffest. I honestly feel it rides better and handles better than my stock track suspension. At the default setting its great for street use...and it will good for track use as well by stiffening up the settings. There are no squeeks or rattles from the upper mounts either. I have been running HKS coilovers in my past 4-5 cars and have never had any complaints or issues.

 

a few old pictures

 

^^ nice Z scan

 

thanks WILL. nice whip scan.

 

I like that last set...what rim is that Scan??

 

looks like work termist s1

 

I have been following this thread because I too want to go with the 19x9.5, 19x10.5 set up but I was wondering how much the f/r track width matters. Stock is somewhere around 60.4 front, 60.8 rear depending on the model and year but they tend to either be the same or .5 wider in the rear at most. By my calculations you would need the offsets to be like 25 or 22 front and 35 rear to keep the track width proportionate to stock, the result being 62.3 or 62.5 front and 62.9 rear. Wouldn't you think that the track width would affect the cars handling characteristics, like turn-in and understeer? Any thoughts?

 

Actually, I think they're SSR Professors.

 

yes, they are SSR Professor SP1's
