9392, wheel gap pics? Posted by markjavier, May-15-02 04:52 AM
Can someone please post pics of their ride with the following setup:
Prokits 215/45-17 tires
I am about to buy some prokits, and just wanna see how much wheel gap is left after lowering.
Thanks, Mark S. Javier 99 RS

And there is nothing wrong with h rated tires!!! I have YET to make mine squeal and I take corners pretty hard. Hell I ran almost a month with my camber completely out and I have virtually NO tire wear so Im happy. I did get yokohamas and they are a pretty soft tire anyway. Ive also had em up to 120 and up to 110 numerous times :)

hey where'd you get those rims off of those are nice. They look like the 95-96 ninja star rims but they're not, I'm assuming you got it off of a talon cuz its got the talon emblem. I need a matching set of ninja star rims for the 10 dolla set I bouhght bwahahaa.
you wanna see wheel gap huh bwhahaha look at this wheel gap:


bwhaha now that's a wheel gap!

yep.. the rims are off of a 97-98 Talon Tsi AWD.. they are the 17in sporty version like that of the 97-99 Eclipse GSX's they almost look like the old blade style of the 95-96 eclipse gs rims, but going the oposite way. The rims are somewhat hard to come by, but im sure if you looked hard enough youd be able to find them.

heh I'll say they are hard to come by I always see those talon rims that are on my car right now. This is the first time I've seen the ones you have. I've seen the 1G version of those, they kinda look like those but don't have that hole in the spokes. THat's tight :)
