jstrat85 - new bumper is 1000x better then the old one! (my 2c worth)

change you avatar....

 

What size wheels/tires do you have on back?

 

rudy thanks bro. i just ordered new wheels also. cant wait!!!

 

thanks bro. i dont know how to make a avatar, lol!!!

 

me???

 

Yes car looks great.

 

Some updates after I finished the Turbo brake installed and finished with the suspension and wheels... Still need to get the suspension setup.

I like the look of the 19" lobsters with the Mk1 Aero... think it goes well but that's just me. Spaces are H&R 7mm rear and 15mm front:

19's def look sweet on the 996.... yeah the lobster works well with the mk1. Dont know why though.

 

purplxd, did your HR spacers come with longer lug nuts too? or were you able to retain the originals. I too have 997 wheels and would like to push them further flush to the fender. Do you have any rubbing issues with the 17mm in front?

 

I used the longer lugs front and rear.

I also used 15mm fronts and there is lots of clearance, same with the 7mm rears with 295 tires.

great, thanks for the quick response. I'll look into a spacer kit now that i know i'll be safe from rubbing. your cars stance looks perfect! How much did you lower it?

 

Great job! Those wheels just plain look right on the car.

 

It went down about 1.25" but its not setup perfect yet. Needs a local alignment/corner balance guru to make it all perfect.

I set it close to ROW Sport settings so it could be moved onto a flat deck to be towed to their shop next week... Friday will be the first road test.
