They pretty much covered the whole hub, so yeah the lugs centered the wheel. Yours might not have that issue then.

 

Wheels should be done today! Can't wait!

 

i also learned that is key to ensuring no wobble or shakes when going with any type of spacer or aftermarket wheel... hubcentric needs to be exact otherwise it just become more of an annoyance to drive...

good luck.. expect pics... btw don't curb anything now...

 

They were hubcentric, he's talking about enough of the hub still sticking out past the spacer to help center the wheels.

 

but you said that on your Mopar, the lugs centered the wheel which means it didn't rely on the hub to align the wheel...

 

Photoshoot later?

 

My understanding of hub centric spacers is they are bored in the center to tightly slip over the protruding part of the hub to center the spacers perfectly. Am I missing something here?

 

J...

 

If the spacer is too thick, the wheel won't rest on the hub and all the stress is on the lugs holding the wheel on.

 

Hubcentric just means they are bored to the same as your oem bore...
but a slip on spacer can be too thick to leave the hub protruding enough to center the wheel...
bolt on spacers go over the hub and provide you a new hub to center the wheel on.

Pics for sure...powder guy says the color is gorgeous...hes never done it before.
I will submit my pics to prismatic for other's to use as an example for the color.

 

cut springs on the M3 thread coming soon to Azine

 

An M3 owner doesn't have the BALLS to cut springs.

 

But if J got an M3 he has to go through the legendary "drive like a fuckin douche" course, which is like years of learning how to drive like an idiot, compacted into a 21 minute video.

 

lol...pretty sure I've got plenty of practice on other platforms!

 

99 kbp TL

I posted up a 99 TL in ramblings but you missed it... was this the colour your FIL had? Laguna green metallic.. These 2nd gens before the facelift were nasty lol. But hey in 99 if you were driving that.. Mad pussy

 

Stepfather,
and yes!

 

Soooo, did you get the wheels back???

 

 

Post pics, don't hold out on us....

 

sooo uhhh where mah pics?

 

So you have the wheels back and we have no pics!

 

uploading some to photobucket now...
I took a few this morning that I'll post this afternoon when I get home.

I dig it...a tad darker than I expected, but overall, they look great, especially on Black Raven.

As a comparison, this was why I decided to do it...
after making the curbing less obvious, the surface blemishes were not great when dirty



and here: Burton Silver with Clear over

 

Looks good in the "teaser" pics.

 

Rofl...honestly, I barely took a pic on my phone in the garage last night and the angle and lighting SUCK
I'd much rather post some this afternoon taken with my DSLR.

 

Yes honestly, especially in the last pic I like the color...

 

Fuck it, I'll never be Instafamous anyway

 

Not with that kind of attitude...

I think it looks good being darker in lower light. I am sure they will sparkle and be brighter in the sun. We all know J loves his sparkles.

 

I dig it. Well done, good sir!

 

Looking damn good. Definitely want to see them in full sunlight.

 

I really like it, good choice!!

 

Thanks boys...
taking some getting used to...I'm so used to the pop of the polished, kinda second guessing my decision...but overall, I like the change...makes it's ever so slightly look modified without being over the top...
and it'll hide brake dust a bit.

you guys didn't even noticed I only have 1/4" slip on spacers now...
yay...that's a good thing...not as flush, but even Betty said it still has a nice stance.

 

Waiting for outdoor pics

 

Keep waiting

 

Please take them with the car sitting on a paved surface. Those pics look soooo much better than when the car sits on grass.

unless it's 96% 420blazeit grass, or higher.

 

You two guys into fitness?

 

Looks really good J!

Just the right compromise between black and silver and really compliments the black paint.

A+, would look at again.

 

Thanks, CuJoe!
That's how I felt about it too...I'll post some daylight pics today. I didn't want NO contrast, I didn't want so bright it looked like polished and showed all the dust. Got what I wanted!

 

Holleee tittss post more mfr!!!!!

Does platidip do a similar tone? would look extra sweet with the fender vent in the same color.. grill too! would even match CF.. Shiett..
