True but they are starting to get a little played out (yes i know they are more practical than pretty). Itd just be nice to have something different, I almost want to look at 17s

[e30trooper]

how light are they?

[mRodiek]

13lbs I believe

EDIT: 14.8lbs for the 15x8

[yert315]

about 240oz

so... just hear me out. theoretically, instead of someone spending the money on camber plates for their front struts- couldn't they just put some washers under the two original strut mounts to even the camber? i mean it wouldn't move the whole strut center or anything, but would the added angle help? theoretically speaking of course

but the control arm pivots on fixed points, you have to physically extend/detract either the top or bottom of the strut unit horizontally to actually change the angle.

my friend added washers to the control arms of his e36 for camber...but that shit seems janky to me.

Don't forget to add the weight of the spacers too. That is additional rotating mass.

Good day chaps, last day of vacation and it's back to the grind tomorrow.




Does anyone know where I can get R12? My a/c system was purged and all I need is a fillup. Let me know as I would like to feel nice cold a/c again. (not Freeze12 or R134)


Thanks guys.

I think R12 is sold on ebay, that's about the only place i'm pretty sure you can get it. It's not sold anywhere in California , it's illegal.
