I cleaned the wheels too. you need to learn better car care behavior https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif



They were suprisingly easy to mount, the old ones were a bitch to get off though.

I balanced them correctly, not like that **** job someone else did!, but thats another story https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683358.gif

thank you VERY much https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif



you da man! one day i'll bring the car to you and you can rebalance the front wheels and tires.... since the same place did them...



i learned i will only let you do that for me https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683894.gif

Can I just have the wheels?https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

they won't fit on a FC. i asked when i bought them https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

So Vosko put ANOTHER DENT in his credit card.....

yeah theres no striaghtness anymore... and not just in his credit!

https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/ohmy.png wheres my wallet

the rims are bent a little bit, nothing bad, but you have to expect that when you combine low profile tires, hard suspention, and Jersey roads!!!



The ghetto guys that mounted those old tires should be shot. There were old stick on weights on there, I assume from when you got them from racing beat. Instead of taking them off, they left them on and just added the **** lead weights on the outer lip. I pulled all that off, and balanced with new stickon's. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

sweet! yeah i'm gonna make you rebalance the fronts eventually https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

considering the place that did them, I'm really not surprised with what I found https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683358.gif

they are simply huge!



mike

yeah i know lesson learned https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

you're gunna use up those tires in about 2 weeks arent you?

well normal tire treadwear ratings are from 300-400. Those are 180 so they are damn sticky, and won't last too long

i don't drive that much and if they wear out they might get a nail in them

Ya - I know they won't fit an FC:( But Ih ad to try. I really love those wheels. Can't you custom drill the lug-holes to make them fit?

i don't understand, why don't you spend the loot for some stronger differentials or tranny so you can actually use your old tires without breakin somethin????? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...

Looks good. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683827.gif

its possible but i don't think so. the wheels were custom made for the racing beat FD..... so they are made to fit a FD. you could have some custom wheels made if you want https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR

umm this actually will prevent stuff from breaking.... part of the reason i broke was those POS street tires!

why is that?

i thought if the motor keeps pushing, and the tires are stuck on the ground......... something in the middle should give........ right?

wanna sell those rims? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

the new tire are much softer and have more *give* its not as harsh on the drivetrain

umm no since they are famous and irreplacable and one of a kind https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

If thats not the understatement of the century

oh i didnt think of it that way.......



the way i thought of it before was...... the stickier the tires, the harder it is to "give" because its stuck on the ground...... and the harder tires would easily give because they dont stick to the ground.

i knew about the wheel hop thing.......didnt know about saving the differential transmission axels and drive shaft though

yup its a win win situation. that is why good rubber is EXPENSIVE!

bah! nonsense.. sell them to me NOW https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/happy.png https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

Cool, nice and big! What brand are they anyhow?

they are racing beat rims. they were made by racing hart

oOOOOOooooooo vosko, you have such big tires.



I bet they give great helmet.
