The new bbs look fantastic! Great color choice.

The wheels turned out great !
Would be good to come to Cars & Coffee in Irvine some morning. We need more 964s there !!

Great stuff. The finish is very smart. Car's coming together really nicely.

Looks good! Like the new wheels.

Thanks guys! I love that color too. Came out exactly how I wanted.

I've been to C&C a few times in Irvine. This weekend I believe they're having it at the Rose Bowl and I will be driving out there for it. Hope to see you there.

Thanks Frank. I like how the front wheels sit but am thinking of adding a 5 - 10mm spacer for a more aggressive fitment. Thoughts?

Thanks bud!

Looking good Rey.

Looks great, nice work!

Love the new wheels Rey, and the Arrow Blue is looking better than ever. Enjoy it!

Remind me of the width, offset and tyre sizes you're running?

You've made a wonderful choice of wheel colour there. The car's colour is so wonderfully bright that choosing a darker wheel colour really ads to the overall look. Bright wheels on a bright car often detracts, despite being fun.

I love the reduction in unsprung weight/ reduction in frictional drag that BBSs offer - have you noticed the difference? Does the car feel lighter footed?

Cheers,

Wheels look beautiful! Any close ups of the lips? I was thinking about a similar finish for a set of Work Brombachers that I have, except with gold centers. Just not sure how it'd come out, and pics for reference for my wheel guy would help out tremendously.

Wow! Everything looks great. I'm totally digging the color scheme and interior floor boards.

Rey, you've done a great job with the car! I'm really wishing I had a Heigo cage in place of my DAS, but I guess I can't really complain lol. Loving all the details you've added on the interior and it looks like you've got a pretty good idea the direction you want this car to go.

Oh, and you don't have to thank me on the offset homework... You did it all yourself, I just had to teach you how to do it . Bravo!

Looks good Rey, glad to hear you got the studs swapped out without any drama too.

Vandit

Everything looks friggin' perfect. The car really comes together.

What was the process for swapping the studs?

Rey Gunn

Thanks Brian! But I think we could have gotten away with the 2" lip. lol. Better safe that sorry though. And now we know for sure.

Thanks bud. Sorry to hear you're selling your FUCs. They look perfect on your car.

Thanks Ken! The color is really growing on me. I only bought the car because it was in such great condition. Previous owner took super good care of her. So I jumped on it. Sure glad I did!

Thanks Frank! Wheels are 18 x 10 ET 50. Running a 265 tire. These tires have a arced sidewall rather than a squared off one. So they look a little smaller than they are.

I do notice a difference in weight reduction from the wheels. Especially from a stop light. I've also raised the car about 6-8mm and that has made a difference in ride as well. Car feels more lively. I don't know if it's my imagination or not, but it does.

Thank you! The silver lip and gold centers would look awesome! I initially was going to go gold as well but saw an exhaust with this titanium color and quickly changed my mind. I fell in love with it. Here's a close up of the lip. Let me know if you need additional pics. I'd be happy to share.


Thanks! Just a few more pieces to add to the interior and then I might be satisfied. Might... lol

Thanks Farkas! I do love how the Heigo looks and love the fact that its adjustable. Only downfall is that it takes up soo much space that I can't put anything back there now. lol Oh well, at least it looks good. Did you happen to see that Orange 964 with a cross bar in the frunk? Looks like the Heigo crossbar. Trying to see if I can fab one up just like it. We'll see. I love the way it looks. Here's a pic.


Thanks Dan! No drama at all, from what I hear. lol Guys at West End Alignment knocked it out pretty quickly. The father and son team of Darren and Chris are great guys to work with.

Thanks Vandit! I wish I could tell ya, but the work was done at West End Alignment. They installed the studs and did a proper geo on my car after the wheels were put on. But there are a couple guys on here that have done it, maybe they can chime in. Farkas and BCD1.

Again, appreciate all the positive comments fellas. Next up is getting the rear to where I want it. Gonna add a spacer and go from there. Gonna start with 5mm and work my way up. Hopefully, the 5mm will be good enough. We'll see.
