- LM's 18x8.5 Front and 18x9.5 Rear.
- Mounted on hankook ventus v12 evo tires

Still waiting on Renntech Camber Kit and for the season(s) to change. Install date should be some time in the spring. I'm super excited for these! I've wanted this setup for years. I don't know if I can hold out on the install till spring time

thanks guys,

i have wanted this setup for years. so you can imagine my excitement. but, with the terrible fall weather and long winter coming up, install will have to wait a little longer. till then, all i can do is drool over them.

You wouldnt have known but i lived there for 16 years and can count on less than both hands the amount of times I have seen snow in the 604, so

However i do know last year they got more than they could handle. It varies every five to ten years or so depedning on El Nino.

alboogiee · 11-07-2009, 03:55 PM

where did you pick up your LM's and if you dont mind sharing how much did you pay for them? PM?

FrankW · 11-07-2009, 06:43 PM

you may or may not need 5mm PFS from BBS to clear the KW V2.

the 18x8.5 et30 LM clears the PSS9, but not too sure about the KW V2.

grats on both parts

the past few years have been getting worse and worse. waited this long and paid this much, i cant risk it! but i am very tempted.

fire me a PM and i will send you a reply. ive looked everywhere but ended up getting them from a shop in canada for a bit more than it would have from the states only b/c i didnt want to deal with customs and shipping.

thanks frank.

BBS provided the spacers so i'll see on the day of install.
do you know if most lug-nuts would be long enough if the spacers are needed or should i get 2 sizes (one for the front and one for the back)?

If it is 5mm or less i think you would be fine with what you got
5mm -10mm get longer bolts

if they came with the spacer then the bolt should be the length accordingly. you should be fine.

What's the renntech camber kit? Adjustable rear camber arms?

Kit replaces the LOWER/INNER conrtol arm camber bushings and existing rear "TOE" adjustment bushings for additional adjustment.

Eliminates costly inner tire wear and increases traction.
