Thanks my fellow Canadian It's been barely 2 months of ownership but I cannot stop smiling everytime I drive. Also been very disciplined during the break-in period (800km left to go!). |

Would you eventually run 225/45 17, 235/45 17 or any other preference?

From listed two sizings, on x8, i'd vote for 225/45 - more common sizing thus a bit cheaper and wider tire selection, closer to stock diameter, slight stretch will sharpen steering by reducing sidewall flex.

Did you do the top OEM crash bolt as well? I guess with only an aftermarket camber bolt in the bottom hole it would mainly push the bottom of the wheel out. But replacing the upper crash bolt with the smaller bolt from the bottom hole would pull the top of the wheel closer to the strut.

Rays Gram Lights 57DR 17x9 +38 TRD 86
Hey Guys! Just got some rays 57dr for my 86 TRD in size 17x9 +38. They fit easily in back and fit in front with about a millimetre (if that) of clearence. I might get a 2/3 mil spacer just for safety but its fine for now. Im thinking about removing the stripe, not sure though. Also wondering if i should add the gram lights stickers to the wheels (red). Tell me what you guys think!

I am debating 17 vs 18, but leaning toward 17 at the moment. someone posted earlier stating it clears the brembo in front but now you said it is quite close, so I am a bit worried as I do not want to run any spacer. I would say NO gram light sticker, my plan is to get the 57DR red sticker instead. For the TRD stripe, i was debating as well, I still have it on at the moment. Is your car lowered already in the photo? |
