LEDs ordered.

 

After fighting with FedEx about my wheels for 2 months.. I get his response from the agent in charge of the case.

"I did speak with the terminal, and yes, they do recall the deliveries.
The recipient acknowledged the damage, said he didnt care since he was
going to powder coat them anyway."


WTF why would someone say this to them... Besides if he did or not the fact still remains they acknowledged damaging them and should pay for the repair.. FedEx is seriously trying to squirm out of this..

BTW.. Im starting a rims list ... taking all winter to decide on some sik a$$ rims. I will be postin up my top 10 and hope you guys can give me your expert opinions on what you like..

So I have finally 100% minus wheels figured out what Im doing with my car:

Ings poly sides

Changing exhaust out to a true dual exhaust with magnaflow x pipe to completely get rid of hiss and rasp

coils (still researching)

+22 offsets on front and rear rims with slight fender roll.

LED interior light, trunk and license plate swap

THEN I will be okay rolling with the 37's

 

Did I mention I will be SLAMMED

 

I like the list you have going on Trev! Sounds like a few of us will be rolling out new shoes next year.

 

nice list Trev. Just be sure to make your funds for FL a priority first

Tevi, i'm PUMPED for your new wheels bro!

 

So am I bro So AM I

You know thisssss mannnnnnnn!

 

Yea.... im pumped for my new wheels too.... lol god i need money hahahaha

 

 

Have u decided on wheels Tevi?!!! Trev we will be able to roll with those G37 dudes next spring and not feel ashamed .

Got a question for Lance and Tevi I guess now - so after researching about coils and deciding that is the route I want to go, I realized I better be able to get up one of the parking ramps downtown MPLS next year... Lance, I know you said you couldn't get up yours at work. If I drop 2 inches do you think I will have any trouble with my under carriage?? I do not plan on getting a new bumper or skirts next summer, but exhaust may be on the list... My mudguards in the front will take a beating for sure. Thoughts?

I plan on driving around downtown next week and finding a ramp with the LEAST amount of incline getting in, and a single parking spot spot for a car with pillars on both sides

 

Dan - I'll be honest man, I NEVER take my car DT. #1 one reason is the parking spots are TINY which results in dumbasses parking next to you and dinging your doors.

For dropping a car on coils, the undercarriage isn't what I'd be concerned about because the lowest parts of your car are your axels which actually raise up when you go over because of your tires.

For me personally, my oilpan is actually what hangs the lowest on my car, which I think is the same for Tevi. THIS changes from the 1st gen and 2nd I believe. My 06 my front lip was easily the lowest part of my car.

Coils will assist you when you decide on which exhaust(and front bumper/lip) you purchase as well because some exhausts hang lower then others. The front of my canisters and my front bumper are about even, but my canisters are less of a worry because they are right by my axels, again, more protected from bumps because of the tires.

The first thing to know and learn is basic yet complicated.....you have to learn how to drive a lowered car. The lower the car, the more agressive you have to play off incline/declines/bumps/dips/etc etc etc. This is why its great having coils, because if there's somewhere you ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO GO, you can try your car out...if it'll rub or you can't make it in, you can raise it up a half inch and try again Coils are all about going AS LOW AS YOU CAN/WANT, but still knowing you'll have limitations(AKA: A DRIVEWAY ). Front and rear bumpers/muffler tips are ususally what limit "how low you can go", because of their location on the car.

Easy example: When you drive towards a speed bump, your front bumper will hit the bump first without the tires even getting there. This limits to how low you can slam your car. If you rock a stock front, you really have no limitations besides the under carriage of your car getting hungup on the actual speed bump while 2 wheels are on one side, and 2 wheels haven't gotten to the bump yet.

 

That is for sure, I will be pretty conservative with ride height at first so I know where and what I can and cannot drive. And part of the reason I want to keep my front bumper is 1. It doesnt have a rock chip on it 2. I save $$$ and 3. I won't F up a brand new bumper after getting coils. But that is all very helpful info, I just wanted to get your opinion so I know what to look out for.

And don't worry, I hug the $^%! out of parking spots next to walls or pillars with a security camera in sight. I would NEVER park in a normal parking spot in those ramps

 

I need some new wheels!!! Can't stand looking at these stock 17's
