Nice wheels, don't cut the springs

 

....

 

Who said anything about cutting springs, reading comprehension for the mtfl, lol. I'm not a fool go re-read a couple posts up before you posted. Someone mentioned doing a cut spring mount mod. Then you posted cutting springs for the lose. The spring mount mod has nothing to do with cutting the springs. read son, read.

 

your reading skills are lacking, I see.

 

OP clearly said if it doesnt lower enough he may cut a link off.

 

I see, what the hell is a link though. Doesn't he mean coil. My bad I guess the op is confusing me, lol.

 

I'm pretty sure he meant coil, when he say's link but w.e he might be confused also. Its all good bro!!
OP if you plan on going lower in the rear read this thread!!

Ok lol lets calm down guys, I meant a coil. I will look at this mod, no need to get crazy. I am going to take a quick pic tomm, but like I said I wont have a photographer do a nice shoot till next week.

This was just to show what I was getting, the car is lowered with Tanabe, so the drop isnt very much. I def need to lower the rear by 1/2 an inch to even it out with the front. I am not new to modding cars, just the nissans thats all. I am going to paint the headlights, but slamming the car is out of the question. I drive my car, and do alot of autox, but its still a daily driver.

Just want you guys to know the fitment is perfect, I mean its aggressive, but just perfect. I have a 4.5" lip in the rear and a 2.5" in front, and I am getting compliments everywhere I go now on the wheels.

 

Wow omsin, thanx for that link, you just saved a spring haha. That is EXACTLY what I need to do, and that personally seems easy and its much better for the ride. What would we do without forums, we would all be shafted with over priced mechanics and dealers.

 

I have the tanabe gf210 springs with spring mount mod. Also, stock caliers repainted silver.

Thats exactly what I need, your drop looks even, mine doesnt. The front I think is perfect for me, but the rear it almost seems like it didnt lower when I put the wheels on. With the stock 18's it was a difference, but not with the new ones.

 

Don't do the spring mount mod though before you buy a rear camber kit with a toe bolt. Your alignment will be way off, both you toe and camber. It will be so far off that the car might not even be drivealbe.

Lets play nice gentlemen haha. I promise to take a quick photo of the car tomm. with my phone, so you guys can get an idea of how they look.

 

LOL at using 4 jacks

In for pics once installed

 

Yeah, its that its my friends shop so I dropped them off and came back, but all their lifts were taken up. They like making me happy, so they put the wheels on in the corner haha, super nice guys. I have one pic when I got home, its horrible, but I need to put the centercaps on. I always take them off my wheels, when they put tires on just in case so the guys dont screw them up or lose them. You can see even in the bad pic, the car needs to go lower in the back.

Everyone LOVES the wheels, like it was the best money I have ever spent. If you guys have a good budjet, i suggest Forged Specialties ALLL day. I bought them through wheeltrends.com, and I was even put in contact with one of the owners when I had a specific question about lugs.



I have been getting alot of pms about pricing, I paid around $3k, that is their regular pricing apparently. I was in the search for Jlines, and then these were way better priced and the service was just awesome. I promised I would help them out on the forums, so here is a link to the site www.forgedspecialties.com . I know I am no good at marketing, but its the least I can do. I am a happy customer that is for sure.

I am thinking I MAY get a front lip now, but not to much into bodykits so gotta find something simple, let the search begin.

 

Not always the case.

 

WOW
looks sick!

 

That is true but considering I have nearly the identical setup as him, I'm assuming he will need a toe bolt and rear camber kit. Our wheels are basically the same dimensions/offsets. Not only that we are on the same exact springs. He can try to do the spring mount mod if he would like without the camber kit but when he starts complaining about extreme tire wear, remember I gave him a heads up. As you can see from his picture and mine that I'm a good amount lower than him. My fender is nearly touching the top of my tire. WHEELS LOOKS GREAT.

 

just qouting for comparison
