MS3 Owners: Show us your wheels

LOL @ ur screen name...

Camber is the angle at which the top or the bottom of your wheels/tire leans toward or away from the center of your car.

The more you lower your car, the more negative camber you get. If you go much lower than 1" below stock ride height, you will need to replace the part of the suspension (camber arms) that controls the camber angle as the stock unit does not allow for adjustment.

These are campers and they are super comfy...

Ops, sorry about the camber vs camper, I did not know. And yes, those are comfy shoes, I actually had a pair of those once.
Thank you, Finally.....someone gets the name....geeze.
 
As for the comment "should go with 235 40, its REALLY close to the stock overall tire diameter." Check with Tire Rack... the overall diameter of the 245/40-18 KDW2 is EXACTLY identical (25.7") to the 215/45-18 RE050A factory rubber.

Maff is hard...

[215 * 45%] * 2 = 193.5mm
[245 * 40%] * 2 = 196mm (+2.5mm)
[235 * 40%] * 2 = 188mm (-5.5mm)

*EXACT* diameter winner is the ever elusive 241.875/40 R18 tire...

Damn.... I knew I should have gone with the 241.875's!!!!
 
okay, question for everyone...

thought id post it in this thread...

any rim that is black with a red ring, however, the ring being the inside one behind the spokes, not the outter one..

if anyone knows hwat im talking about, can you please post a pic of some models.
 
haha no problem man. thats the only one i can think of at the moment. although there are a lot of wheels that you could do that with if you have a roll of that pinstriping shtuff.
 
oh yeah for sure, im about to order me some advan t7s and i wanna do it to that inner ring, and i needed a pictuer to show a friend so she could tell me if she approved or not, so thank you!

anyways, do you guys approve, that red inner ring on black advan t7s, going on a black mica that has red calipers, black/red emblem and soon to have other little red accents in places

Man that was what I had pictured for my black mica but dont worry, I dont have the funds to fuel this set up in my head. I think it would look great.

Dont know if anyone makes this but I wonder what this would look like with red hoses in the engine compartment?

Check out some of our vendors, I have seen hose kits in red.

i loooove the t7's, but dude black/red wheels are so played out... i say do another color. (naughty)
 
STRMTrooperMS3,
I love the Bronze Wheels. I also have a Forest Green '95 300ZX that I think would look great with those shoes!

Where did you get them? Didn't see them on Tire Rack.

Five AD is a subsidiary of Five:Axis, a Scion/Toyota Tuning brand but they have nice wheels that'll fit just about anything of course, any Scion/Toyota dealer should have a hook up, there's also the Five Axis website which features all their wheels and should have a pdf or at least a chart of sizes and offsets and bolt patterns.

Cool. Thanks for the info.
I'll check them out this weekend.
