Nsaglibene Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Oh this thread is about putting re92's on SSR's! Don't worry its just temporary, I need to make some more money and I got some re92's for free so thats what went on. Looking for some decent used tires or i'll have to wait a bit and get some new ones. Now switching back to 17's I relize im in terrible need of a drop and springs are on the wishlist too. http://img276.imageshack.us/img276/8618/img04747yy.jpg http://img276.imageshack.us/img276/8379/img04757sx.jpg http://img277.imageshack.us/img277/6223/img04760nj.jpg I'll get some more pics up when it isnt soo bright out.

Yukonart Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Ewww. . . I would have waited to put on the wheels until I could have put more roadworthy rubber around them. Awesome wheels, though. . .hard to beat any of the SSRs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mach_six Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 It's as absurd as starting another thread when you could have posted in your other one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Th3Franz Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 At least the RE-92's are soft, so if you hit harsh bumps/pot holes, maybe it will absorb the impact and your soft but light-weight wheels won't bend or break. -Franz The end of a Legacy http://www.youtube.com/th3franz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legasee Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 nice wheels and great color too........are those factory Subaru lug nuts, so you don't need tuner lug nuts with those SSRs?? In Taiwan now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenonk Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 I think those are the Gorilla lugs that he bought with them since they look like he bought them from http://www.tirerack.com On those particular SSRs, you dont need tuner lugs.. but on my SSR GT7s you do, as each hub of the SSR wheels are all different, some will need tuner, others wont.. but to be safe, just use tuner lugs on aftermarket wheels.. they are smaller in diameter and your socket wont scratch up the wheel when you tighten the lugs down because most good tuner lugs will come with a key-socket that extends the ratchet or impact gun away from the rim.

Nsaglibene Posted August 24, 2005 Author Share Posted August 24, 2005 hah nice, I think I found a set of re 70's to put on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nsaglibene Posted August 29, 2005 Author Share Posted August 29, 2005 Well, I got some things too add. First off I just picked up a set of used re 70's to throw on there. Also I was wondering if you think I should put the SSR sticker on? I was thinking about putting the SSR sticker on only and not the competition sticker, what do you guys think? Also can anyone reccomend some good wheel locks that will work with these wheels? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gire Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 No stickers = clean and nice- just like the rest of your car. You know they're SSR's. Why need to advertise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drewster Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Also can anyone reccomend some good wheel locks that will work with these wheels? Thanks. http://www.mcgard.com/automotive/new_prod.asp http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v205/xenonk2828/GT-Car/Img_0077b.jpg Xenonk uses them so they must be cool. This is a stolen pic from him anyway. Note that the left one is the locking one, and the other 4 are matching spline drive lug nuts. When I was looking for a set, everyone seemed to be out of stock of them but I was able to find it on amazon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nsaglibene Posted August 29, 2005 Author Share Posted August 29, 2005 Heh nice, I guess ill keep the stickers off. As for those locks, like Drewster said, if Keefe has them they must be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nsaglibene Posted September 3, 2005 Author Share Posted September 3, 2005 The RE92's are no more! Thanks to member Edvig, who spoted me some re70's, I no longer have to roll on 92's. I can proudly show off my bridgestones now heh. The tires look 10000000000x better and handle 999999999999999x better. I only tested them on afew turns but they are even a lot more impressive than my 225 falken zeix I had. Snapped some quick pics, I wanna try to take some night pics later. http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/788/img05019oc.jpg http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/9538/img04984hp.jpg This angle looked a lot better in person, they looked much wider than. http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/8373/img04923cz.jpg http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/2945/img04953mb.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nsaglibene Posted September 3, 2005 Author Share Posted September 3, 2005 Heh thanks, Im loving these tires. Now I gotta sell the PIAA's and get some winter wheels to throw the re92's on or get some serious snow tires... I got a few months before I have to worry about that tho. Im posting some better pics in the offical OBP thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
