I finally get to pick up my car tomorrow w/ new FMS front crontrol arms, front sn-95 brakes w/ slotted rotors, hawk pads, SS brakes line, new MC, rear 5-lug converison (new drums and shoes), and 18x9 saleen wheels. I know these aren't big mods, but It's a relief to finally have the conversion done with. Here's a pic. I will post more tomorrow once it's on the ground, I hope it looks killer and a I feel a difference w/ the FCA's. I'm in class right now and I so bored,....1.5 hrs to go and ticking!!!

Who's doing the work?

Thanks. I have a friend who has a shop on Linden Ave. in SSF. Chico's service station is the name of the shop. Very fair prices and quality work. The owner is an asian guy, his name is Chico. He also has a gas station at the same location that has cheap prices considering the price of gas these days. Tell him Gus sent you if you need anything done.

Thanks again

nice send me you axel specs i've always wanted to put those damn rims on my ride...what axels you running and what size rim/tire

I am running the FMS 5-lug drum rear conversion kit. It has the fox length axles w/ new 5-lug drums. The wheels are 18x9 all around and are mounted on 245/45 zr18 Dunlop 8000sp's. My car is at at stock height. I don't know wether the front is going to rub or not, but I don't think it will. If it does I will probably have to run a smaller tire in front.

Thanks

You need different offsets or something in the front to pull the wheels in. The tires size won't help your situation at all. Getting smaller tires will just make it look HORRIBLE, and still stick out.

It is a 24mm offset in the front and these wheels are not made in any other offset. I don't understand what's making the wheels stick out, I've seen others run these wheels w/o problems. Anyone out there w/ 18x9's (24mm)in front please let me know if you have similar problems

Thanks

You know what I was up all night thinking about this shit, and the only thing I could think was maybe the front was for a 96+ like you said, but the guy who I bought said it came off a 95 . damnit!now I have to to the spindles f@#k!
