    just cant get enough lol.


    im sure i could just replace it to and would run the same but tired of adding a quart of oil every week i put oil in my car more often then gas.
  • adamEFwagonadamEFwagon Senior Wagonist
    what size were those sportmax's?
    and offset?
    also, did you only roll the front fenders or what?
    sorry to be a pest, but i cant decide if i want some sportmax's or rotas..
    thanks in advance for any input.
  • EDwEFprtsEDwEFprts Senior Wagonist
    ^ i'm guessing his works are 15x8 +0, that he rolled the front fenders, and that the rears are stock with lots of camber.

    ...so that's the story behind your wagon :) .
    it's good to see that you're holding onto it.
    keep up the good work.
  • adamEFwagonadamEFwagon Senior Wagonist
    oh ya i thought the works mite be 0 offset.
    i dunno what wheels to get lol.
    sorry to fill your thread up a little too.
  • yea front and rears are roller no camber kits.

    black/ cream sportmax are 002 15x8 0 offset

    silver sportmax are 15x8 15 offset
  • adamEFwagonadamEFwagon Senior Wagonist
    on rolling the rears, did you actually push them out a lot or just that lip on the inside is folded up?
    thanks! lol

    if its not too much of a hassle, could you take a close up of the inside of the fenders?
  • just the inside lip is folded flush. ill see what i can do for pics.

    ur gonna wanna run 195/45/15 the nexen dont stretch right the toyos do and the federals look like so to
  • adamEFwagonadamEFwagon Senior Wagonist
    oh sweet thanks.
    i take it you dont daily drive this thing?
  • oh its daily drivin as its my only car right now im hoppin rides from everybody..but hopefully pick up something to get around in while this goes under for a _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ! HOPEFULLY :D
  • ThaClutcHThaClutcH Senior Wagonist
    RHD Conversion?...still? Didn't fill up all the blanks though. Haha. :lol:
  • adamEFwagonadamEFwagon Senior Wagonist
    thats sick.
    i was gonna go with those 15x8 zero offset, but i think DD it would suck ass.
    prolly get a set of work equips later on though.
  • its not bad i can turn the wheel all the way and no rubbin for now atleast. about to be tuckin over half the tire. :D


    almost got my motor ready to go in gonna replace all the hoses still and need to change over the flywheel and crank pulley.

    Get some deep dish wheels on that four door, so you can have matching cars. Haha.
  • probably gonna put the works on it with some 165/45/15's and get some gold work equip 03s for the wagon
  • NJCIVICWAGON1NJCIVICWAGON1 Council Member
    Love your style my dude 8)
  • ThaClutcHThaClutcH Senior Wagonist
    You should get two sets of 01s. Maybe in a different color. I think too many people have the 03s. But either way still balllerrrr. Haha.
  • EDwEFprtsEDwEFprts Senior Wagonist
    ya!
  • well the first set of 01's is gonna go bye bye in about aweek but it will be 8)
