Ordered Avant Garde M368 in Dolphin Grey wrapped on Achilles ATR Sport tires shipped to PR

Anyone have a fender roller I can borrow? I'm nervous the rears are going to hit the sharp part of the guards...

dared3vil0 05-23-2013 10:42 PM

^ looks similar to RPF-1's, but slightly better imo...

westopher 05-23-2013 11:01 PM

what car are those going on?
P.S. Kelv, I still haven't been informed what was in those boxes!

I decided to purchase them on the basis that they resemble the Work Varianza T1S style (Work and AG collaborated with one another) as shown on this Aristo:
http://cdn.speedhunters.com/wp-conte...Aristo0132.jpg

AG also offers the M560 which is pretty much the exact same thing; $2.5k for a set :heckno:

I lose out on the deep dish but get more concave :toot:
Broke student :okay:


Will be looking at AME Shallen LX down the line... always loved the look of those! 'cause VIP

Of course! Low and slow :fullofwin:

Spoiler!

westopher 05-23-2013 11:45 PM

Solid man. Might need to turn the fronts down a couple threads for a bit of rake. Its gonna look awesome. What size tires you going with?

I had to turn the collars for the front coilovers counterclockwise last week... felt like a slap in the face but without fenders rolled I kept hitting them when I made turns or went over bumps...
I originally wanted it this low:


Current tire size is 245/35/20 on all fours, going for 235/35/19 and 265/30/19 for the setup coming in.
Lower overall diameter once the AG setup is on; car will be dropped even more once fender work is done as well :fullofwin:
Being a relatively heavy sedan I wanted to run stretched tires but felt nervous about load ratings
