A pair of steel greys

Big props to johnnyblaze for taking his lunch hour to meet me so I could hear his LTH setup! Grateful to have helpful members like him on here. I didn't know his other mods but he came rolling in on CF10s which imo look sooo much better in person than they do in pics! I might even have to get me some. oh and btw the benzworks LTH sound goooooooood!

Here are some pics, johnnyblaze on CF10s, Im on the super dirty oem 19s

Wooooooooh! @johnnyblaze

Perfect stance....dead on

Wasn't a fan in the beginning of those wheels but your offsets are killer and the car sits perfect

Good job!

I'm all about stance and yours is one of my favourites

Keep Blazin it up!

Great looking cars! Nice wheels Johnny! I have my Cf10s in Black graphite coming any day now. What sizes and offsets did you go with? 19x 8.5 ET40, 10 ET 52? Are you lowered on H&R Springs or coils?

Thanks bud! 275 in the rear is great for hooking up, but man it likes to rub going into driveways LOL.

Thanks! They are 19x8.5 et40 front and 19x10 et52 rear. Sitting on 235/35/19 and 275/30/19 with H&R Coilovers. Had to lift up the rear because on stocks I was completely all the way down. Still rubs going into driveways or with 4 people in the car LOL. Believe it or not I got the wheels in 7 days..

The guy I normally goto for tires (has a 750whp RX7 with the same tires) recommended the new Falken FK-453 Azenis. They hook like a beast.

Hmmm. Do you think I would be ok with these wheel sizes on H&R Springs?

Sajun, you should be ok with 275-30-19 on your 19x10 +52 ... maybe Jonny is running on PSS which runs wider?

edit: nevermind, he is on Falken.. not sure how wide they run? Or why he is rubbing?

Now that you mentioned it, I can see the fronts are more flush than your rears. LOL

Did you figured out the solution for the clicking sounds from your 40mm lugs bolts?

In my research it seems a lot of guys are using 10mm spacers with 40mm bolts with no issue I have no idea why mine wont clear the emergency brake mechanism. Anyway I didnt want to shave the 40mm bolts so I found some RAD bolts at 37mm, theyre 2 piece and more expensive though, but I think they'll work.

Sick cars guys. Steel grey is an amazing color - works great with black and carbon accents.

On the 19" multispokes or on the Forgestars?

Maybe the multispokes have a bit thinner deck, than the Forgestars, that makes the 40mm bolt push past the end of the rotor

350Driver has the same size rims and tires that I do on H&R springs and he said he doesnt have any rubbing issues. I think the Falken tire I have is square like the PSS's This Falken 453 hooks pretty nice though so I dont think I'll be changing LOL

The shorter lugs you ordered should cure the ticking....the 40mm lugs are probably peeking past the end of the rotor and making contact on every rotation, causing the ticking noise

The 37mm should definitely solve ur ticking problem. Just weird u have that issue though cuz I have the same 10mm spacers & 40mm lugs, no problem.
