got my rims today. billet specialties street lites. 15x4 front and 15x10 rear. i put sn95 brakes on her today so i cant wait to get back down there and see of the fronts will fit without a spacer.



these things dont weigh ****. they packaged them with one front and one rear and my wife carried them into the house and commented that she thought they ripped me off lol

Cant remember off the top of my head, Ill have to check once I get the car back.

LILHEMI

you have the 3.5" rim with less backspacing. its not much of a difference but i wont need the same spacer you have. im going down to the car in a couple of hours so ill post up what i find.

Aww I thought u had the same size, whats the back space on urs?

LILHEMI

its a 4" rim with 2.25 BS. i had to use a 1/2" spacer to get these to fit. i was worried it would stick out too much but its fine. and yes i will paint the calipers someday lol.

Following your build. I'm thinking of doing an ls1 t56 in my notch as well.

finally finished everything in my crossover pipe. installed the O2 bungs and relocated my wastegate pipe.
before. built by a guy who has not a ******* clue about turbo systems ovbviously. my bad.

after. had to pay somebody $150 to fix this.


really happy with how this thing had turned out now. im going to have it copied in stainless next year once everything is sorted out.




random pic of my dog wondering wtf im doing lol

LILHEMI

got everything sprayed. makes it look pretty killer and this should keep my underhood temps way lower than just the coating i had done to them.
