Alex Datsun Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 then why not just get 15x10s. im running 15xx8's and have atleast a inch of clearance. Word i got about the same clearance with my 16x8's but it rubs pretty bad everywhere since it all of sudden got harder to roll around. 9" would be perfect for stock metal just with some pull/rolled and crank dat camber. Comic your car is coming along nicely. Quote Link to comment
that one guy Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Just for the record you realize a 185 on a 9.5= some pretty crazy stretch In my opinion if your going to run flares anyway you mine as well run as wide a wheel as possible.. especially if you want that much stretch Edit: unless your limited to a 185 for some odd reason? Actually, I am limited to 185 <_< Not because I'm too cheap to buy new tires, but because every 3 months or so, i get a set of 185/70 R14 from work for free... So I guess i am to cheap... :lol: And Alex Datsun is right, Comic does have quit a nice ride going on here, very unique. Quote Link to comment

jalen Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 have you seen yutas and ppk's ride? this is the unwanted step child :rofl: and 15x9 with crazy stretch belong on a z with no flares 1 Quote Link to comment
that one guy Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 Well sorta, Yuta's is just kinda rusty, this one has a weird paint job, plus WHALE TAIL. Love that thing. And I might run no flares, cept for Diamond quoted me like 500 for the sizes I wanted and I said screw that so now I have to find different rims in the sizes that I want. Quote Link to comment
jalen Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 you know he primed it, and ppk has the wail tail. the only difference is the ugly stepchild has different wheel and a turbo Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I like how everyone assumes that, because I'm slammed, and have a whale tail wing, I'm trying to copy Yuta and PPK. Quote Link to comment
I'm BLUE Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 Comic Why havent you painted a giant katy perry mureal on it yet? That would seal the deal once and for all on the " you copy this and you copied that" bidness Plus you get to stay inside .... bahahah Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 That's a GOOD IDEA I think I'm gonna see if I can work something out with the vinyl cutter guy I know Quote Link to comment

ComicArtist Posted April 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 But which picture? I'm thinking this one. jkjk I'm actually thinking this would look good on my door or quarter panel. 1 Quote Link to comment
JZ33 Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 I agree, that one would look good in a stencil format with her arm on a body line haha Quote Link to comment
jraymer Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 "Slammed", such a terrible word. I would rather hear stanced hahah. Elephant trunk gettin CRAZY!! Quote Link to comment
jalen Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 when i hear stance i think of honduhs. im sticking to slammed. and a car can have stance and still but pretty high up 1 Quote Link to comment
Ratty260z Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 Bunch of thread jacking assholes up in hurr jesus christ let the guy build his car, I personally think you could find one of her laying down and slap it on the whale tail or maybe hood? Hopefully she doesn't see your car and sue for copyrights :D. When I see this thread bumped I want too see an update not a bunch of circle jerking teens squabbling over stupid details. Just watch, enjoy, leave some feedback and let the guy do his magic. /threadjack 3 Quote Link to comment

ComicArtist Posted April 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 Maybe if she sees in on the Internet she'll be so interested that she'll want a ride in it.... 1 Quote Link to comment
Npdavies. Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 You see what Yuta said about someone saying you "copied" his Z? Guess you can definitely tell people who say you copied him to eat a bag of dicks now. :lol: Quote Link to comment
Alex Datsun Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 ^ meh. I Dont care hellaflush its called an opinion not an inevitable statement. Hey comic did you raise the motor at all cause mine is dam near close to the floor. Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted April 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 ^ meh. I Dont care hellaflush its called an opinion not an inevitable statement. Hey comic did you raise the motor at all cause mine is dam near close to the floor. I haven't yet. I'm planning on raising it as much as possible without hitting the hood, my oil pan is about 3/4" off right now. Fortunately the crossmember is protecting it for the most part, but there's still the chance of it getting busted. Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 You could always build a skid plate... as low as I plan to go, I plan on rocking one. Or later down the road build a dry sump system for it. I know its a little overkill on my setup but I have most of the parts already laying around the shop and can fab up my own tank. A little welding and plumping effort is better than a destroyed pan and motor. Quote Link to comment
