I'm dying to put the Kai's on for the first time, but need tires and spacers. Lucky for me the Grams and Kais are both the same offset. So, whatever spacers I choose for the front will make both of them look flush. Just need to decide whether I want to stretch a 215 on my Kais (8.5w) or run a meaty look w/235s.

or meet somewhere in the middle with 225's. I think the 225's look good on the 8.5. It's only slightly stretched. You want some tire on the ground w/ a stage II sir.

Got the transmission fluid issue fixed bro? It's a shame you couldn't make it to the dyno on saturday

APupNamedSmokey · 07-13-2009, 05:58 PM

I don't think it will stretch enough to give it the look I want. The 225s on the Grams now, grip real nice with the stg 2

I gotta find the key spot to launch without bogging and without peeling out like crazy.

Psh get some slix and dump the clutch @ 5-6k

Did you get that excelerate gauge pod thing? Im debating about it but IDK if i want my gauges sitting in sun like that.

maiku · 07-19-2009, 12:49 AM

Yeah I got it. Looks great up there. Quality is iffy but it's not too bad for $125. I'd never pay $250 for it though.

realxlai · 07-19-2009, 01:04 AM

Soem double sided tape and your good (got the same one)... you really can't justify spending $125 more on something with a bit better fitment...
