Audi, before I reccomend you I want to see your resume, cause they want "real mechanics", so they are looking for the cream of the crop.


Assss for the quest? Drop it drop it low gurl


Looking at that picture makes me want an 17/18 double stagger, so that I tuck full tire in back with the 18's. It's just so hard finding a nice set of wheels in the right offset. everyone has shit positive offsets, or massive negative. I need like a 10.5" -20 out back and a 9.5" -6 up front.I shall get perfect specs by spacing my wheels with washers to where I want them and then measuring the washers for the spacer width, and then calculate exactly what I can fit

-Justin

Side on, this thing looks the biz, even with those stock wheels. I like the concave rears, your future wheels should definitely be concave as well to maximise the effect those boxed arches have over the wheel.

Nice work thus far.

I am always having nagging thoughts in the back of my mind to redo the fronts so I can lower it more...I can go another 1.5-2 inches down. Problem then becomes tires hitting the fender well, because these old cars just aren't meant to have body lines an inch off the ground body just doesn't come come down around the fender to eat up the wheels like new cars. Anyways, i'd love some deep concave, but there aren't many true concave wheels that can go 10.5 -20 with full concave.. I want to find a set of wheels where I can get a nice deep safe concave, with the rest of the offset in lip instead of a chunk of metal on the back of the center pad of the wheels, if that makes any sense.

10.5-20 rear, 9.5-6 front is my idea right now, I am going to mock em up with washers on the lugs to see exactly what I want. So, straight concave seems to be out. I've heard that the extreme concave that these specs require are unsafe for the rigidity of the wheel (IE those crazy concave ADV1, ect). I think a concave + lip would be awesome.

My alternator belt committed suicide yesterday, got a new one ordered and picked it up this morning. Get home to find that I need to remove my AC belt to do my alt belt, and if I ever need to do the PS belt I'd need both off, so I ordered the rest of the belts to do em all at once.

also finished my fog lights.

after:



I have DDM 35w 3000k HIDs sitting next to me for the fogs, and DDM 55w 5000k for the headlights. I need to get around to putting them in soon.

why such a difference in rear camber?

[NudeLobster]

why such a difference in rear camber?

no adjustments. Fixed offset pillow ball camber plates...the strut tower bolt pattern is too small to a pillowball adjustable plate, there are a handful of sets that use a bunch of plates sandwiched that adjust in the fenderwell instead of the trunk, but they are very rare. The only adjustment in back are eccentric toe bolts
