and your point? dude lighten up. who cares… its all about blinging it up and bein a pimp. if those driftfatory guys are gonna have probs drifting the 13inchers then let it be… they prob got another set anyways with the kidna money theyre dumpin in to that thing.

maybe u should post up some specs/pics of YOur 240 so we can all see how a person with your knowledge and mechanical wisdom builds it the right way.[/quote]

I’m giving a second point of view from the perspective of say a truely well set up race car versus a good looking chassis with all the bells and whistles.

I like the car, but I was under the impression a little more thought would have gone into the building process.

It’s not all about blinging it up and being a pimp, if it was then the cars would make 120 horspower and be on 20 inch spinners. It’s still a racing sport, not a car show.

It’s constructive criticism, and the exchange of information, it’s part of life so deal with it.

I could afford them…

I can still take them and have them put on a shock dyno and revalved to specs with the current spring rates, or I could change the springs and revalve to that.

Ideally I’d sell these and go with something with a external reservoir to maximize clearence and space, and move the reservoir to an area where the weight might be better displaced.

Unfortunately, I’m just as poor as the rest of you.

My only concern would be what your other wheels will be.

I mean you are obviously going to have to run widebody/flairs, at which  
point anything narrower than your 13" Works will look sunken. If you do  
space those out that far then the car will handle like crap since your  
suspension geometry will be way off…

Its hard to run 13" wheels for show, and then put on 9 or 10" and still  
look good (flush).

Either way the rims are nice, although you can’t have flushness on 10"  
AND 13"… just won’t work.

The 13s are pretty high offset, I’m sure they can find a lower offset 10" rim that will be close to flush.
