My GT86 Aero, Called "Wingo"

[Killerbee]

That looks like alot of fun :-)

[atledreier]

It is! :-D

Nothing beats your backyard, though! :-) Hope I can bring a few other 86's, they deserve a good drive in the Alps!

Edit:
What's the ET of your wheels? I like the stance and I'm getting Eibachs as well this saturday.

Wow car looks amazing basically identical setup I'm looking for when I get my 86 aero!

Just a question, with you wheels setup are they completely under the wheel arches or are they sticking out a bit?

I'm wanting the same setup but I can't have the sticking out any further than the wheel arches.

Thanks

Hey, thanks for the kind words. The wheels do stick out a bit, about 5-7mm in the front, and about 2-3mm in the back. If you like I can make some pictures of it. its just a small amount, but if your law does not allow it you probably have some issue with it.

Unfortunately here in Australia it is illegal maybe I'll have to go with 235's?

That will probably poke aswell, since the tire flank will still go out to the wheel/rim and thats already poking a bit.

You could go for 17x8.25 +35, they look almost similar to the 18x8.75 +35, you hardly notice that they are 17". Those would fit perfectly with no poking at all, and you could still fit 235 or 245 tires.

Hey. I never used red lug nuts, so not sure what pic you've seen but I guess you've mixed it up. I started with the chrome ones delivered with the wheels from my XXR dealer, and then traded them with a friend of mine who had black ones from his work wheels. Since I was looking for black ones, and he for chrome ones, it was a perfect deal. But to be honest I have no clue what brand they are.

Since I've got some pms asking why I'm not posting any news I'm posting a short update.

currently I'm in florida on holidays, so I had to change wingo into a rental murano :-( however, I ll be back home soon and wheather should be warmer by then, so you can expect alot more pictures and videos soon.

bl -> I'm still around, but just enjoying florida currently (even with weather being quietbad currently)

[Killerbee]

Quick update.

I'm back from Florida. Man, there is nothing like driving 3 weeks a rental SUV that lets you really appreciate your GT86...
...I still have jetlag, so since I anyways could not sleet I took Wingo out for a spin in the Black Forrest. Started at 5.30am and was back at 9.00am. Almost no traffic, and I made a video from the trip aswell. Currently editing it, and will be uploaded later today.

For now some pictures
