Got some new ****, everybody likes pictures.

 

would love to see those wheels mounted...
to bad its on a nb

 

I want a review of the carbotech's. Do they live up to the hype?

Chris

 

What ring and pinion is that?

 

If they are xp10's and 8's they sure are. Stop a hell of a lot better than my old hps's


15x9's... drool

 

Welcome to the nickel 15x9 club.

 

They'll be mounted real soon, see below.

They're 6.363.

Thanks man.



Forgot to post this (grainy) picture, r-s2's and frame rails ready to go.

 

That's the combo I was planning on getting, but the guy at carbotech talked me into getting xp8's all around since I still DD the car. He said they've been racing miata's since 2001 and that the 8's wouldn't fade, I'm thinking now I should have demanded the xp10's for the front.

 

the wheels are ******* gay.

 

I DD my 10s up front

 

Tires mounted


Wheels mounted


Stock front brakes


Sport front brakes


The whole scene, you can see my buddy's GTI in the back. Still need to get pictures of how the car sits all said and done, it was dark when I finished.

 

 

I ended up calling them up and getting the 10's, they're working great.

 

Is it just me or do the tires look a bit to small for those rims, like they look stretched outward?

 

They have a bit of stretch. Looks like **** to me (I have the same tires and rims) and I can't wait to move on to wider tires.

 

Let's see the car on the ground!

 

Tim how did it do at the track? Sure did look good from the stands.:(

 

are those the nickels? They look hot especially on a black car

 

Yea, can't get any wider in a good street tire.

Thanks man, felt pretty good, just wish I could drive it better.

Yes, thank you.

 

sweet ride who the fudge says that those wheels are ugly? those wheels are the best.
