Sweet ass car man. Hey, I think I saw you last week at my job. Did you go to capitol caddillac in greenbelt maryland?

cM3go

chill_dog

How the hell can you people say they look good when you can hardly see them? I'm not saying they don't look good, just that you can't see them. Add me to the list of folks wanting day shots...

Lokius

I know I need a drop, just can't decide between Tein Basic or SS. What do you guys think?

[IMG][/IMG]

I really like the chrome lip.......it is so much easier to clean then a polished lip. I strongly recommend that if you go with a 3 piece wheel, get the lip in chrome. Another thing I was shocked about is the ride......it rides like stock, not harsh at all.

BTW, the specs are 20x8.5 2" lip all around (don't know the offset) w/ 245/35/20 BF Goodrich GForce T/A's

I will take more pics, in better light, after I drop it.

cM3go

Wheels look good, I don't think you need a drop though

pearl04

It needs just a little lowering in the front. That's why I may have to get adjustables, to get it just right. I thought about getting Eibachs and just putting the fronts on, they have a 1" drop.

Anyone with Tein Basics or SS? Is it worth the extra money for the SS vs. the Basics. I don't want any floating, are the Basics firm enough. The price difference on EBay is like 200 bucks. Should I spring for the SS, or will the Basics give me what I need. Someone please help me decide.

Also, someone on here said that you can't use the adjustments on the SS in the front because of the strut bar. Is this true?

Laxplaya11385

ride looks HOT. How much did you pay for those?
i think the tein SS has more dampening adjustments, whereas the basics have little/no dampening adjustments. Don't quote me on this though, b/c that's just what i read/heard.

^^ u are correct

pearl04

Yeah I know that with the SS you can adjust the damping. I just want to see if anyone with the Basics wish they had paid the extra $ for SS.

Lokius

what's up with your volks?

VelfarreClubber

Ride looks hot, if you were to lower i'd go w/ Tein h-tech and if you really want coil overs get the SS so you can adjust damper.

pearl04

They are for sale......specs: Brand new SF Winnings gunmetal 19x8.5 38+/ 19x9.5 46+ pm me for price. They would look real hot, has a nice lip on the rear. I really wanted to keep them for an extra set, but the wife is not having it. I want to offer them here first before I put them on Ebay.

Thanks. I was thinking about the h-tech also.......I just don't know. I don't want to get springs, and get stuck with not being able to get the exact height I want. I think it's just between the Basics and SS. I need more opinions between the two.

stockTL

Does your rim/tire setup mess up the computer? They should be significantly larger in diameter than the stock rim/tire setup.

Dreamdtt2000

Oh Gus? That's one kool dude. Hey, maybe we can have a mini tl meet when I get my car back. Nice.

pearl04

Yeah, that will work......I really want to start a club around here with some cool people. What do you think?

pearl04

I really don't know......and I really don't care. I'm not keeping it anyways. Lease.

i think 20s look too big on the TL..19s are perfect
my opinion only...

tsxondubs

I think ur car looks awesome man lower it and ur done imo...and 19's will look likes 17's on a TL man what are u thinking ..

pearl04

Thanks tsxondubs....I have been watching your ride for a while, it has inspired me. Yeah, I think 19's are too small also (for me). It really depends on the type of look you want, and also the type of wheels.

I have seen alot of TL's with nice 19's and a nice drop. I just figured if I was going to spend a decent amount of money on wheels, that I should go all out. I was back and forth for a long time 19's or 20's.....I knew that I wanted a dark center with a lip and rivets, so 19's would have looked like 18's. Anyway, I am happy with the look , and I get alot of compliments, from all sorts of people.

elee712

Huh? 19's will look like 17's on a TL?

derekjonathan

I dont know what you guys are talking about..19's are too small?

I have 19's on my TL (Niche Rhines) with the A-Spec suspension and it looks perfect. Everybody has their own opinion though. Like for example, I dont get why people do staggered fitment wheels on these cars, it looks stupid as hell and serves no purpose. The car is FWD...

I think 20's look good on the car, but you have to be selective about the wheel, and in most cases, cant drop it, at all. it will rub. If I put 20's on my car it'd rub as well, thats why I went with 19's.

pearl04

I said that they were too small for the look that I wanted. They are fine if that's the look you want. Some 19's look smaller on our cars than others.....the same goes for 20's. It all depends on the wheels you choose.

tsxondubs

i dont understand why yall TL owners cant get 20's to fit with a drop and not rub my lil tsx is on 20's with almost a 3 inch drop and i have no rubbing even with 2 batteries in the truck and 2400 watt amp and 1 75 lb 15 . I guess u have to do your research on the wheels to make them work with a drop and not just buy them for the bolt pattern ...I would roll 19's for daily driving so i dont mess up my 20's ..

pearl04

It all depends on the offset, the width, and the tire size. You could slam an auto TL with 20x8 w/ a 40+ or higher offset and 235/30 tires. Your ride maybe alittle rough, but it would work.

next step: bodykits.

Looks wonderful . . . Actually I saw them in person ! You were on Father Hurley Blvd a couple of days ago , and i damn near broke my neck to see those wheels on your car . . . . Believe me people pics do no justice !

pearl04

Hey.....thanks!! Small world......I remember your car too. That thing is nice. I am considering the Aspec kit, at least the front piece.
