C320 Sports Coupe
Hey Xeon,
I like the wheels i see in the pics of your blue C-coupe. Could you post a picture showing the car from the side? I was hoping to get an overall view to see how 19's look on the C-class.
I just bought my C320 today, and am trying to decide whether to order 18's or 19's.
I was told that the 19" wheels ride quite a bit rougher (because of the lower profile tires). Is this true?
Anyone else have an opinion between 18's and 19's before I place my order? BTW they are SSR GT3 multi-piece wheels.
Thanks!
Cris

We both had 500 miles on our speedos at the time..Those things are quick..

2000 M Coupe and 2001 C320
It's actually not EVO8. it's called EVO8 for ROW. For the US it been name Lancer Evolution, but the floormats are the JDM mats and says Evolution VIII.
but I didn't think a Lan. EVO (US version) is fast enough to win against a C32. It's only ~270ish. The (JDM) EVO7s are 310-320hp (these are dynoed numbers, I know they advertise 276hp in Japan)

Those Bimmer guys were definitly intimidated by the C32 Squad!!
And to Synergy C320 Did you get a Manual?
Also on 18 and 19s ride ruffness depends on how much rubber you have between you and the road and your suspension. With 19's you do not get as much rubber if you are slammed, If you have a conservative drop with 19's you can have more rubber for a cushy ride. 19's are a little slower as well, but not as pimpin.
Ok boys we need to meet the BMW guys again and lets stick together this time!!
The C32 is an unfair challenge( On a straight street track) to the Lancer for sure, But it was fun seeing him try..

C320 Sports Coupe
I had a couple manual transmission cars in the past, so I decided to go with the auto this time. I just got the car, and I LLOOVVEE it!!
I ordered the wheels today, they are 18" (18x8.5 front, 18x9.5 rear) SSR GT3's (mutli piece). They will be here on Friday I hope, and also ordered a set of springs from Renntech. Ill take some pics this weekend when I get it done.
Hey are all you guys from Cali? Or anyone from Florida?

They are pretty quick cars. 5 sec is their claimed time from the manufacturer.
