Sheesh, xr4 prices these days. And no way am I going to fit those x9's up front on stock fenders and still look okay. I want to stay away from flares as far as I can

Just tested out the front extended studs on the back and they seem to fit perfectly, finally gonna have 1.5 pitch all around instead of running separate lug nuts front and back. Also gotta completely renew my e-brake lines and rear rotors/pads and maybe even calipers too to get them to lock up for those early entries!

OH AND I'm selling my 15x7-1 longchamps and 15x7.5-12 work equips in order to get some really rad wheels. more on that later

Very much looking forward to seeing what wheels you choose to run on this car, and in what sizes and offsets. Surely you can't go much more aggressive fitment than what you already have

Your choice could transform the entire look of the car!

I say go for hydraulic e-brake finally!

Or you've done it already?

The Hand brake on my S12 is average... feels really sticky and i've checked the cables etc not sure why. it looks the wheels but you really have to yank on it. This why your changing yours stuff?

The wheels will be rad I promise!

And nah, hydraulic e-brake is too much of a hassle. I plan to just replace everything for the cable e-brake and get it to lock up nice and reliably. I'm changing stuff since the cables are super stretched and pulling it as hard as I can even after feinting ONLY slows down my car, it's super disappointing. New rotors(mine are destroyed), semi metallic pads and new cables should do the trick!
