lol hehe... any idea on the most practicle degree? 5-degree?

well this is the aim... this look im after :D to me this is the sex! :D no idea what degree it would be... i would be using for fast road use and the odd track days. but i also want the look to look extra mean which i think i have achieved in this PS i have done above. whats the max...

can some tell me the advantages and whats the best to have for setup? i think it looks smart on low car with a big camber although i guess it wears tyres out like hell!? can people tell me abit about it and whats best!?

lol looks like it will b 15 fo sho then. should b ok as i have standard brakes. this thread = biggest thread fail ever!

oh lol.

as title please. pics and reviews on having wheels this small. also what wheels you have.. thanks.

dont forget to get -silvatecs all round! -colour code bullets with yellow writting -RS Grill -defo needs droped (40mm)! then it will b looking the sex! well done so far!

what about a 17"/18" O.Z ultra? there not a bad weight... 7kg/8kg

lol ok sorted! also sorry to kevo66 to dry arse rape his thread LOL

:( should i just stick to the more simpler example lol standard 172 wheels weigh ~17kg (each, with tyre) 5x17=85 lightweight 15" ultraleggeras ~9kg (each, with tyre) 4x9=36 36kg -85kg =49kg total loss of 49kg

this is confusing now lol, im reading too deep into it. all we need to know is the un-sprung weight factor formula... example below.. 8 (total un-sprung weight lost) x >?< (un-sprung weight factor) = x amount ? (equivilent to total body mass loss)

have u checked these out? http://www.oz-racing.de/at-team/index.alk

lol ok but yes that would be correct IF the wheels were made from Carbon Magnesium. which there not so ultras wouldnt do that :( ultras are made from aluminium and magnesium so tis a little different :( im gona guess the "un-sprung weight" factor would be x3 or x4 instead of x6 ... i dont know :S

very. i have nothing to do! lol just being a cs geekatron!

so from the example above i gave (172alloys v O.Z Ultras) means i would be loosing 192kg of body weight.... that cant be right can it!? 17 - 9 = 8 (total saving from each wheel) 8 x 4 = 32 (all togetha saving from all four wheels) 32 x 6 = 192 (total x "un-sprung mass") that must be wrong...

?

potn.com/uk were selling them the other week for between 1200 (17") - 1500 (18") but they seem not to be there anymore :S you will find them somewere! will be well worth the purchase. well priced also considernig they are as ligh as they are, other light weight wheels brands like enkie n bbs are...

these will be the lightest wheels you will find in the world! weighing in at 17" = 6.25kg!!! these are what you want if anything. even the 18" weight something silly like 6.75kg so for the size you shoudl save more then 50kg, assuming the standard cup wheels will weigh simuler to the 1*2...

Dont forget light weight wheels! for example.. standard 172 wheels weigh ~17kg (each, with tyre) 5x17=85 lightweight 15" ultraleggeras ~9kg (each, with tyre) 4x9=36 36kg -85kg =49kg total loss of 49kg jus from changing wheels! now im not saying change to 15" ultras but it just shows if...

so can some1 explain to me about the width of tyres, people say 205s are better than 195s and 50s are better than 45s etc whats what and whats best for what conditions i.e /track/fast road/weather etc etc, i want to buy the best suitable tyre for when i buy my alloys (15") i would be using...

ooo right. i didnt know that. i apologies! :(

you have gingeritus silvatecs FTW

lol id say my average RPM gear change is at about 4-5k i also think its healthy for the car :D its the grandads who are slow that f**k cars and chavs who cant change gear correctly and just rag it stupidly

standard figurs to each version. 197 = 1240kg 197cup = 1220kg

well evo specs them to be 1220kg, i just went off that their figure.

wer do u go to get cars weighed? nice one tho! 38kg loss not bad! Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 172.26

i think we have an answer now lol, this has gone on long enough lol. trophy setup = great handling + a great quality ride 1*2 coilover upgrade = great handling + awesome mean stance so its which ever counts personly, ride or stance.. END OF! lol.

it is a polish, and i have heard its OK, not brilliant but not shite just average. i would much rather buy "autoglym super resin polish" wel known and populer. the manufacture "Zymol" is mainly well known for their waxes which usual start from 50quid upwords.. but are awesome!

would be easier if you had a pic of more a side on view tbh

oooo nice, were from? any pics m8? tbh cant be anyworse than the ride quality i have atm... pure s**t! thanks
