I just purchased Falkin 205/40/17 512 tires for the wheels. Do you think this would give me adaquate stretch?
Love your set up BTW. I'm actually getting my wheels machined to be et25.

 

205 falken 512s are really like 185 wide. They'll stretch a good amount. That's what I've always run.

 

good ol chestnut ridge! if i might ask, why are you selling?

 

Yep! I love the ridge!

Just selling to finally get myself into a Lotus.

 

Just installed my BC Racing BR's with Swift Springs. Sitting on Enkei PF01 17x7 et45. Hankook Ventus Evo V12 205-45-17

Wheels do not require spacers!

Coilovers are set to about 1/4" above lowest ride height in the front (with no preload), and 3/8" above lowest in the back (also no preload). I'm pretty surprised how low they go, considering what people have said about the BC's. I think I might raise the front a bit, lots of rake right now.

 

Ahh, Lotus! Love those! Hello insurance increase! Good luck!

 

Yeah, especially for a 22 year old male... ugh

 

 

That looks sick

Where do you live? SoCal or WA? I wanna shoot your car.

 

Yep, thats how the MINI should come, IMO its too tall of a car as is.

 

hey rally,

currently im up in seattle for school but i come from socal so whenever i'm down there, shes down there.

 

Man I love those wheels on the Pepper White.

 

Nice! So how's the ride with the Swift springs and damper settings you're using?

 

thanks!!

 

This is how it's done. Did I miss the specs?

 

thanks! appreciate it! the weels are work xd-9s 17x8.5 et32, tires are falken 512s 205/40/17. suspension is kwv1 coilovers.

 

I am considering BC/Swift. Tell me more about the setup, how are you liking it so far? Where did you buy everything?

 

Well whenever you're back down this way, hit me up if you wanna hang out and shoot some photos of your car. It looks great and I'd love to see it in person and hang out

 

nice! im in the budgeting mode right now so i can hopefully afford some KW V1's this summer... for now ill deal with my 4x4

 

Finally got some better pics with newly powder coated Bridge Spokes. Here's one of them.

 

Just installed Megan Racing coilovers, set at just below the middle of the adjustment, no spring preload. Konig Swurve 18x7.5 on Kumho 215/35/18 all season tires.

Might take it just a little lower...but want to see how things settle in first. So far VERY happy with the ride quality, just finished the install a couple hours ago. Better pics to come but I wanted to show off NOW

 

LOVE IT! I am looking at some Work Emotion CR KAI 17x8 +30 for the MINI. Love work wheels and love the XD9s! Finally more people running legit wheels on here!

Same tire and suspension setup as you too!

Looks great.

 

yeah i know what you mean, i felt like i was the only one

 

looking good! go lower! btw im a ColinMc too if you couldn't tell by my username

 

Me too!!! haha. Granted your works were probably a hair more than my wheels I still love yours! I am working on finding something x8.. I love my 5Zigen Proracers since they were used by the team 5zigen r53 racecar.. but I want something new. almost bought some SSR SP1s from a friend but realized i wouldnt be happy with another 7.5 wheel and want 8-9.
