Thanks guys! I couldn't fuckin' believe it at first.. until I had the cash in my hand! There's no greater feeling than making a profit! Other than... well, ya know....being inside ed's mom


Ordered my rear aero bumper today! Still undecided if I was the aero front, or get some sort of front lip?!

Coils are going to be ordered this weekend... as soon as I make up my mind on which ones I want.



Btw justn, nice pups!! Been contemplating on getting one.. but just don't have the time & I don't want it to feel neglected

What you did there




I SEE IT

opboarding

Are you fucking kidding me...3.5 months to get my wheels and the offsets are wrong. They are all the fucking same.

keep calm and ask for freebies.

benben01

Can you fix it with spacers?

No volk watch.. How about a Volk wall clock? Got one in my office

justnspace

iTrader: (1)

I wouldnt fix it with spacers!
if he ordered a specific spec, I'd want that specification.

mrstak

iTrader: (1)

i'm with justin. either they give me what i wanted or they give me a huge discount.

benben01

^^ I agree with y'all but just trying to be pragmatic is the offset is off like 5mm or less.. Any more will be a PITA and a big discount should be expected...

justnspace

iTrader: (1)

^oh i didnt think of it like that!

it would help if ryan disclosed what offsets he ordered and what he received

opboarding

It looks like they are all the rear offset, so I would rub pretty badly in the front if I put them on. I am going to talk to them today and see what they have to say. The order confirmation email from throwdown performance had all the correct information.

benben01

^^ shave more fenders

opboarding

The offset distance between the two should be 13mm or around .5". I looked inside the wheel for the offset and was confused. Where I thought it should say the offset, they all said different numbers. One wheel matched up what the offset should be. I measured them all, just to see which ones would stick out more(to mark them rears or front) and they all were the same measurements.

benben01

so what is the offset then ryan?

opboarding

I think they are all 35, which the rear should be . I did a test fit on the rear and it looked correct. Front should be 48.

Since the wheels didn't tell me what offset they were inside(or on the box) I did a test to at least see which were front/rear. I put a wooden box on the floor, and put the wheel facing upward on it so that the center of the wheel was the only part resting on the box. So different offsets should be different heights from the floor. They were all the same distance from the floor.

benben01

Ryan you lost me when you said different heights from the floor... What are the overall specs such as diamater x width?

opboarding

19x8.5

Didn't go wider because of tire size constraints. Either they didn't have the correct size of tire, or I'd have to go to a 35 sidewall which I didn't want to do.

benben01

ah.. I thought you would go staggered for some reason..

opboarding

Turns out they are all 4 the front offset, 48. So either spacers or getting 2 wheels remade. I really didn't want spacers, which is most of the reason why I went with custom offsets. Plus there is a paint blemish on one of the wheels, so that problem would be solved too if I get them remade. I am sad

benben01

I vote you keep the wheels and get spacers. It's easier to sell the set later when they are uniform considering they are NOT staggered. Get whatever credit you can from them and rock them with some spacers

mrstak

iTrader: (1)

they're not charging you extra right?

opboarding

Hmmmm. Good point about being able to to sell them later on. There is still the blemish on the wheel problem though. Maybe I can get some money back from that to save me the hassle of sending one wheel back. It bothers me, but with some touch up paint it won't be very visible.

opboarding

They shouldn't be, no.

ed_423

awesome clock ben.


and sucks to hear ryan did you order forgestars? Lol

opboarding

Yeah

ed_423

i freaked out when i first got my wheels. because the wheels have no offset stamp on there, and the boxes say 19x10 and some offset, which were not what i ordered. however, when i compared i did get staggered offset so phew.

good luck though, mark and forgestar have pretty good customer service, im sure they will take care of you

iSeeYouTwo

19x8.5 and you had to shave your fenders?

MC MiYoung3269

Nigga be hardcore yo

benben01

Thanks Eddie! That Te37 was a $80 find on craigslist. The BBK clock was a $10 cheapie from Harbor Freight. My creativity... priceless

opboarding

I can still push the wheels out far enough with my offsets, I dont' need a super wide wheel. I didn't want stretched tires or a 35 sidewall tire.

Bish please

that race car tire tho!
good man, with the v6, why compromise tires by running stretch!
