  1. SCR Performance in Loveland is top notch. Expert technicians and very knowledgable staff. 970.203.1127
  2. Thanks. Most definitely, that will be one of my first purchases next year.
  3. Sorry, I meant et38 not 48.
  4. et48, not aware of the other offset. Only offered this offset for this wheel size from Wheel Dude.
  5. No worries here. I have been in the car scene for over 16 years now. I know this a look that is not for everyone. But how many mods have we seen that may not be right for us personally? How many times have we been to an event that someone is proudly displaying their taste in modding, but we do not agree. Hell I have seen some interesting approaches at large events such as SEMA that I do not agree with. Probably will see some this year as well (can't wait Nov 1st cannot come quickly enough). But, do we publicly disagree with their vehicle for all to see to prove our logic and possibly embarass them? I'm hoping probably not, because I do not and will not be a part of that. Just a word of advice to everyone, "don't do that." Let's keep the scene civilized and mature. Let's foster friendship and interest. No one style is the best or worst. It's just style, don't take it so personal.
  6. I got them a month after I bought the car in 2005. They are the AXIS Decades with the Maxis Lip System. The offset on them is actually less than the Rotas I have now (i.e., et35 vs. et38), but only a 18x8 wide wheel. I still have them, but just grew tired with the multiple spokes. I'm lazy, easier to clean six wide spokes than 10 skinny ones.
  7. I can appreciate the feed back both good and bad. This is a look only for aesthetics, obviously. The last I looked we are modding daily driven vehicles not looking for feed back on time attack or SoloII vehicles. Of course you can fit a larger tire on this wheel, but I do not want too. This a look that I have been a fan of for years. Even when I was in Germany, admiring stretched and poked tires on slammed BMWs, Audis, Mercs, hell even some bad ass Opels. I had a 2001 VW Jetta with 18x10 Brock wheels in the rear w/255/35 tires and 18x8.5 Brocks up front with 225/40 tires on a front wheel drive vehicle. In practical, yes, bad ass look, HELL YES. I am no noobie to suspension and wheel and tire set ups. Have raced SoloII for over ten years regionally and nationally, until I decided to take up coaching. So, thank you for ALL inputs. In respect to everyone at Stance Works, Stance Nation, and Fatlace, FORM over FUNCTION.
  8. Thank you for the compliments. After pulling and rolling my fenders and putting these wheels on. I actually can go lower now. The stretched tire allows all the tire tread to be in line in the wheel well while the stretched side wall of the tire and wheel sticks out past the body of the car by at least 1/2 an inch. I will definitely be looking into coil overs for next year.
  9. 225/40. Camber adjusted up front only. Used the stock camber bolt and just turned it to full negative. It appears to be roughly -2degrees.
  10. Tire size is 225/40. Just roll and pull your fenders and you will be fine.
  11. Thanks. Running with Tein S-Tech w/KYB GR2 Shocks.
  12. Hello everyone. I know that pictures of the Rota Grids 18x9.5 are abundant on here, but I just can't resist to show-off my own set.
  13. Just PMd you back. No problem with clearance.
