ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    I ran 17's with 215/45 tires and the ride quality was fine. It's actually not too much different from stock. When I put my stock wheels back on I noticed a difference, but it wasn't anything astronomical. I say go with the 215/45s.

        Nope, no rubbing, and I am lowered 2-2.5 inches. So you shouldn't have a problem at all, being that you are stock height.

                      Thanks! Megan Racing sleeves on stock shocks. They were on the car when I bought it. I'll be getting Koni shocks in the VERY near future.

                      The car will also be about an inch lower all around when I get new shocks too

                            Lol, yea. I'm not a fan of these KYB struts I'm on with TEIN S-Techs. I'll be getting some Koni yellows soon so it should be lower. It's funny, there's a much smaller gap when I'm on the stock EX wheels. We'll see what it looks like with my new 16"s I just bought...oops, just gave something away.



                            Plus, I couldn't have gone much lower with that lip. I would have lost it way earlier than I did on these shitty MI roads.
