Damn straight!!!!

finished sanding the other front rim. the back ones don't look to bad.

Aired up the front two, need to finish the rear two... Will do that tomorrow morning as I am putting them on the B

[510freak]

woohoo!
Cant wait to see the end result Tim

[izzo]

suspension hasn't settled in the front from swapping tires yet.. also found out my rear cylinder is leaking on the passenger side. I just bought two cylinders and replaced the driver side, this was on the list already. Guess it's happening sooner than later Ill order up some shoes and spring kit, might as well do it all now that its saturated in brake fluid.

Anyways, here she is. Again, the front hasn't dropped yet as I haven't drove it... Just aired up the tires and getting ready to take it for a spin after i double check the lug tightness

[RedBanner]

So how far did the front settle?

hory chit !!





Those look GOOD !!! Izzo

[izzo]

Thanks man!

They do look pretty badass... I'm getting some vibration when I drive. I double checked the lugs, they tight, shook the wheels, they on tight, air is correct PSI on all four, these are directional tires pointing in the right direction. I am thinking maybe they need balanced... I'm sure les schwab will rape me a bunch for balancing the wheels, mounting and dismounting... So just gonna rock them for now till i can find a spot to do it cheaper.

Those wheels are a complete game changer.

[izzo]

Oh yeah they are. Just gotta get the vibration thing figured out. Seems the worse of its around ten/fifteen up to forty or so. At around sixty its not as bad tho still there

[BLUE]

You got this.

Does it "shimmy" through the steering wheel ?

[izzo]

Negative. I got it checked out. three were out of balance, one has a slight ding in the lip. leaves me with a little vibration at about 40mph, but only a little one... so good to go.

THAT..is awesome news my friend ! ..
a little vibration never hurt no one

I have a bent spacer on the front passengers of my yellow z that cause #$%# sometimes with a shimmy ....
The (3) of the tires were bald as @$@$ when I bought it ... it also had a flat-spot on the one that wasn't bald ..
lug-nuts weren't tightened down eveny (or at least close)
that was an interesting drive home + my stupidity = derp derp derp.
