Marzocchi Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 Good upgrade. Glad you made it work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leurven Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 Granted, bigger is always better, but, having 17s and/or 18s with snows is just plain stupid.Now i can throw some winters on these rims, and hook up new shoes in the spring!on a related note - i may have some 15" steelies for sale to any local dudes or dudettes.I love having 17" snow tires. Makes no difference over the 16s to me. I love the look of them. Granted they are more expensive though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blkaplan Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 I think I hear 2003 calling.. would have been much cooler if you did the factory 330mm(or was it 320mm? I can't remember either way, cooler) brake upgrade. stop hating, my chicken owns you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asinine Posted December 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 I've noticed no difference in the braking as a result of the 'trimming', except that the new brakes totally kick jerk!It's crazy how authoratative these things feel and the 'more money than brains' volvo team calls them MBMs!?!?!

caliwagon Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 So the carriers are from a V70R? Did all 98-00 R's have 302mm rotors in front? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
