Re: Offset question - Looking for REAL insight

that sounds like the rota grid drift ;) a 205 tire, fender rolling and some negative camber should make it fit flush. Should look awesome!

btw. ET 30 and 8J width will clear the strut, so ET10 is no problem at all.

Re: Show me your wheels...

@solo: I agree, but still slightly out of proportion though. I loved they way they looked on the car, but 23lbs for the rim only, it was a bit too much. @wytbishop: no not all at the same time. Currently I have the grey gs with those 15" grids and an FC3S with 16" Rota gt3's. About half a ...

Re: Ajustable Suspension

I had the AST's on my mx-3 for 5 years, using it as a daily, summer and winter, driving 20.000km a year. When I sold the car, they were still fine.

Re: to rub, or not to rub. That is the question.

I've seen someone on this forum fit 225/50/15's on a rim with ET35. I believe it was on stock style suspension and it must have been a tight fit. 10mm spacers should do the trick, 15mm spacers will make it flush, but you'll have to roll the rear fenders.

Re: to rub, or not to rub. That is the question.

it depends on a few things, what suspension are you running and what camber settings are you using?

Re: White GS r.i.p. / Welcome mighty grey GS

It was way more expensive to fix then to just buy the other one and transfer all the good parts (the rear mudguards will go on the grey car too, they just need to be sprayed at the moment). We're trying to sell the white one in one piece. If you want the e-spec skirts, just post a WTB on the Dutch f...

White GS r.i.p. / Welcome mighty grey GS

My girlfriend wrecked her white mx-3 a few weeks ago. She was smoking in the car :roll: , the sigarette fell, she panicked and drove the car into a very high curb.

Re: is the whiteline sway bar for me??

The whiteline rear swaybar will reduce bodyroll and understeer, all without comprimising the ride quality. Sounds like it's for you 8)

Re: Rim size + offset help

depending on your rear camber, you might need a slight roll on the fenders, but it should work fine. If you have coilovers though, the amount of space left towards the struts will be limited (in the rear), so you wont be able to run a lot of neg. camber in the rear.
