19"x9.5-*Update* used your feedback.ty

[wtggto]

ok. feedback pros/cons were all (most) considered. the result was.....changed the front tires from 275/30zr19 to 245/35zr19 while the rears were changed from 295/30zr19 to 275/30zr19. front rims were tucked under additional 5mm...well here are the pics. sorry it's nite here in atlanta.

I think it looks good, especially with your silver car. As you pointed out it would be better to see in the light. Did you roll or cut the fenders? Are you using coilovers or would that matter for our applications?

many questions but...yes i work for a custom wheel and tire shop mostly high end set ups. after today there is no scrubbing regardless the angle/stance/etc. as for the rear fenders i will go into detail, but a couple of the posts almost sounded like i offended some of the members...perhaps details later. cost, well it's my line of work so pricing is way different. cost to duplicate? i am not a vendor here so i will play by the rules. take care.

suspension is all stock, really not necessary for a nice package. wish i could have had better lighting. fronts and rears do not come past the fender edges. ok for the rear fenders. rolling in my experience often yields cracked/stressed paint, even with a heat gun. instead, we are able to polish the fenders down (not cut/grind) and then seal or paint the newly exposed area so to eliminate rust or a moded look. the fender can be polished down in a progressive arc so as to preserve the original shape or flow from the manufacturer. really one has to see the completed job up close to fully understand. bottom line, even under close inspection, it would be almost impossible to detect the change.

Thanks for the additional photos... but if you have time, could you take a few more in better light? I have a hard time seeing these, but it could be the room I'm in, too.

Have you had time to drive your new car with all these wheel mods?

[wtggto]

i drove it home of course, and the ride is smooth (we on car hi speed balance). the ride is not too firm and the best part is the look without the scrubbing sound. sure like the car better than my y2k ss.

I definitely want to see pics of this in the daylight - I'm curious to see how the fronts look now. Still wondering how you managed 9.5s up there, amazing :) I want 12's in the back though hehe.

These wheels (Milanos) come in both 8.5 and 9.5 widths. Has anybody tried a staggered setup? I've seen 8.5 x4 and 9.5 x 4 but no mix....

As CSiJason said...Here's the PFYC Banshee car (http://www.pfyc.com/banshee/).

[brenteb02]

I don't think so. When I asked the question to PFYC they said they were only available in 19". HOWEVER they also told me the wheels on the Banshee were all 8.5" wide - ergo the previous question...
