  1. Yeah of those two choices, 205s are the only option. A 235/55 won't fit. Way too much tire, 235/45 is about as big as you can run.
  2. I have 205/50/17 for snows on 17x8 wheels and they don't even come close to rubbing. That being said, why would you want a 205/50 for an all-season or summer tire? Why not run a 215/45 or 225/45?
  3. I just bought some 2x4s at Home Depot. LAWSUIT TIME BITCHES!
  4. Yeah I thought that was common knowledge - how nearly all building materials are sold by nominal instead of actual measurement.
  5. Yeah bro I'm good. I hope you're doing well too!
  6. Yeah I know him. I know both of you actually. Why does that matter? I don't know.
  7. Sorry to hear about your friend Matt. Here's wishing her a quick and painless recovery I have funny a story about a girl who jumps, but that's best saved for the R-forum
  8. x70s have a double-layered fender lip in the back, it's actually a PITA to roll Plus the AWD models have a 10mm wider rear track than FWD cars do, so our stock wheels are ever so slightly less tucked in from the factory Mike, wagon looks awesome dude! I don't remember if your comets are 7" or 7.5" wide. For arguments sake, if you used a 15mm spacer on 7.5" wheels, they'd sit 0.4mm further in than my wheels. With a 20mm spacer on 7" wheels, they'd sit 1.7mm further in than my wheels do. Reference pics of the wheels on my wagon: Wheels are 17x8 et34 with 235/45/17. I get some minor rubbing but only when I have a few hundred pounds of stuff in the trunk.
  9. Since Friday at 6:30, I have either been drinking/drunk or hungover as fuck Did some serious day-drinking at a craft beer festival yesterday, got to try some pretty awesome beer! I tried to log most of it on Untapped, but I missed a few in the mix.
  10. They're talking about the inlet pipe
  11. Went out for my good friend's birthday (former roommate for 4 years) last night and ended up having to sleep on Matt's (babyclaude) couch and drive home early this morning to get ready for work. Just now am I able to eat breakfast. Dammit. So many bad choices
  12. Runs low 8-second quarter mile and its street legal
  13. WANT: http://avantgardewheels.com/m240.php
  14. Not all that rare, but a cool accessory nonetheless. I've seen a handful of wagons running around with that badge - for a while I wanted one for my car.
  15. I know You can build a pretty good motor for about that much! Its a direct quote of Dr. Kreiger from the show Archer...and if you watch the video that quote is absolutely hilarious
  16. ITB intake designed for the B5234T And it has ports designed for an ALS setup! http://www.tibuc.se/produkter.aspx?ProdID=58
  17. What pads and fluid are you running?
  18. 04s are jewel taillights - they'd be an upgrade over the 98 ones.
