-40 OFFSET

TIRES
TOYO 225-35-19

SPRINGS
H&R RACE DROP

IM LOOKING FOR AND EXHAUST SYSTEM TO PUT IN
WHAT IS THE BEST RATED FOR THE TL-S ON THE MARKET AND WHAT INTAKE IS BEST RATED .
HOLLA BACK AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK .
:devil:

HERE ARE SOME PICS

 

Nice wheels. However you will almost definately rub when you lower it. 19x8.5 w/ 40 ot is too much. I am not talking out of my ass like many of the others that would reply to just shoot you down. From personal experience I use to have 18x8.5 w/ 40 ot and Comptech Springs, and I can assure you I rubbed. You will need to get 19X8 with At least a 42ot. 225/35/19. Otherwise the car looks great. good luck.


Go with the AEM intake, by far the best on the market. Stay away from Comptech headers, great power, however both headers and exhaust rusted in less than 2 months.

 

nice, kind of reminds of the rims on a E46 M3 ....

a lot people here have had injen and AEM, and i haven't heard any complaints, try the search on Intakes; i think comptech came out with a new intake (icebox), or it should be out soon, check it out....

oh yea, don't forget to put wheel locks on you rims, unless you already got em...

 

yo unique TL were u at Baltimore show last month?

 

JCCOL, your wheels are nice. Unique is right, if you drop it you'll rub for certain.

 

Looks good

 

JCCOL i jus noticed u were in miami

do you mind if we meet up? i wanna check out your rims in person

holla front

 

Yeah that was me. Unfortunately I didn't win anything, I had to judge, therefore I couldn't even enter my car it was just on display. I will be at Hershey this weekend. Also you can see the car at HIN Atlantic City June 15th "with some new mods."

 

Unique,

Can you post some more pics of your ride, and do you think painting the door handles monterrey blue is worth it compared to chrome.

 

JCCOL, those are definately some hot rims

I've been thinking about getting those rims as well. Could you post some additional pics of the car from a little further away?
Which Arceo distributor did you go with? Did they have the 19X8s with the 50 offset in chrome for the 5X114.3, or just the 19X8.5 with the 40 offset in hypersilver?

And yeah, I definately agree with Blazin TL on the wheels locks!

 

Hey I think this is a pic of Unique's ride @ the Import Eurasia show. One of the pics I took there.
