I just put on my 19's today and it make sthe car SO much slower! I guess I'm going to have to just cruise from now on. I have crappy pics right now but I will be dropping it tomorrow and will post good pics tomorrow night. By the way I went out to play pool with some of my boyz for 2 hours and when I came out and drove off one of the wheels almost fell off cuz someone had tried to steal them!!!!!!! Now I'm EXTREMELY paranoid!

 

damn! sucks about someone trying to ****** them..what kind of wheels are they?

thread is worthless w/o pics

edit...never mind about what kind. i see it in the sig.

but still post some pics

 

i know how you feel... someone actually jacked my wheels when I went to paintballing...

plus, a pool hall is usually packed with "not so trusting" characters... not to place any judgement on you tho... I go to pool halls too...

but yes, 19s are def slower... but, unless u race ur car, you'll get use to it... but, get some wheel locks...

 

Pics will be up tomorrow night after I get it dropped. Now I have to get my Carlsson bumper fixed and put back on. My idiot friend ran it into a curb They are 19" 5 spoke staggered Sevas wheels. Getting wheel locks tomorrow. And I hate how much slower the car is with 19's. I think it might even be slower than stock now (havent really got a chance to push it yet, its been raining all day ) Anyone know what spring pad sizes I should get with my H&R Cup Kit?????

 

woot, my car's gonna be slow when i put on the 19s in may.

sucks that people will steal someone's wheels...

What do you guys think?

 

what did i say? i dont even remember what went in the ***** but the only thing that would fit would be a word that means the same as steal. i cant think of what i might have said that it would need to be changed...

not that i care but just curious.

 

It´s Fuc************ Sweet!!

Congrats Man!

 

very nice....how much did those sevas run you?

 

BTW, did you find any gains in your speedware chip? Thanks...also, who is/are Sevas wheels?

 

Thanks Azpinator The Sevas wheels have only been in the U.S. for 3 months and are carried by a company called Euro Trenz in Miami (I am one of the first people with these wheels ), They only run about 2500. As for the speed tuning usa chip, yes i felt a noticeable increase in performance (I have a group buy going if you are interested contact me).

 

the wheels are on ebay by eurotrenz. if you do a search for hre they will come up. i was wondering what they looked like on a w208 and they do look good!

btw, what pads did you go with?

 

Your rims look excellent - I think 208's were made for 5 spoke rims. The drop looks great too - whole car is slung looow now.

 

Nice job putting everything togther. It looks reall really nice! BTW, how much it the lip in the rear?

 

should be 3"

Are the true 3-piece wheels? Forged?

Rob

 

 

The lip in the rear is 3". #4 pads in front and #3 in the rear, Only rubs when I turn the wheel ALL the way to the left.

 

i have no suspension mods and my 18" E55 wheels already rub when i turn to the left all the way. dammit i need springs

 

This might be hard to believe but I rubbed more before I dropped the car. Maybe because the stiffer suspension prevents the body dropping as far.

 

camber maybe

 

Are you looking to sell the stock 17"

 

No I'm not selling the 17's.

 

car looks nice/sharp. I love that drop. I may switch to the H&R cup kit.

 

Love the drop and the wheels!!!! See ya at the next GTG.
