Alpine White E90. some JDM Advan TC-III. [Teaser for now]

e90fun · 06-14-2012, 12:45 AM

My god. First off, I want to say one thing about these things. These things are LIGHT...!

Unbelievably light compared to my style 219M tires before..

I don't want to believe it but I feel as if the car got faster too, might be in my mind but it seems much more jumpy and just wants to be pushed hard now lol.

Anyways, here are the specs:

18x9.5 et 22 (mounting hankook 245/35/18)
18x10.5 et 25 (mounting hankook 265/35/18)

I adjusted the suspension today also. At first I worked on the fronts and slammed them to like 1-2 threads before max.

Then ran into a problem of the rears not matching the fronts so had to raise the rears more.

I'm not completely happy with how it sits right now but I got so tired from lifting, taking off wheel, adjusting, putting back on... over and over again.

Maybe something in next week Ill go back to it but so far its running great.

What I wanted, function with a hint of form.

Not the best pictures, no processing besides some auto-fix with photobucket

the photoshop is on my other computer and I hate to not deliver my promise of friday pictures

Also, shout-out to Lawrence@BavarianX because he helped push me to purchase these and looked out for my back.
