  1. What was your first DSM?

    My first car crush.
  2. 2g Wheels and Tires Size Questions [merged] fit fitment

    Here are some tables that may help: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/frequently-answered-dsm-questions/286685-will-these-wheels-tires-fit.html
  3. Tire Size Recommendation Request

    My advice was for a 2g, it does not apply to a 1g.
  4. Help with Big brake kit

    Also remember that when discussing brake swaps like this, the subject of wheel spacers almost always comes up, as they are usually required. In my case the fit was so close that the wheel scratched the paint off the calipers. I sanded them and repainted and ended up with clearance about the...
  5. vr4 brakes on a 2g

    Make them. There are dimensions in these threads:http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/articles-suspension-brakes/185350-guide-13-1-4-piston-brakes-1gs-cheap.html http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/handling-tech/184965-bargain-basement-big-brakes.html
  6. Tire Size Recommendation Request

    From the math, you would have about the thickness of a penny for clearance on either side of the tire. Unless you can test fit them before purchasing or you are prepared to deal with rubbing by using spacers or aggressive fender rolling or increasing negative camber, it would be better to...
  7. Quick rim question

    http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/frequently-answered-dsm-questions/286685-will-these-wheels-tires-fit.htmlThose wheels will fit with no problem whatsoever, but I'm thinking you might want some rubber on them. That's where things can get tricky.
  8. Tire Size Recommendation Request

    245/40/18's are BIG tires, diameter wise. The would fit with fender rolling but 245/35/40 might be better. If you want to avoid fender rolling, stay with the 225/40/18's.
  9. Tire Size Recommendation Request

    Lowering doesn't change any of the clearances. Changing camber after lowering does but only at the fender. With that high offset, you've got enough clearance at the fender for a __________ (fill in appropriate humorous noun).
  10. Tire Size Recommendation Request

    I think you'll find that all 235/40/18's require an 8-inch width wheel, so their out. That leaves 225/40/18, an easy fit.
  11. Tire Size Recommendation Request

    Hunh?You should be fine with the 225/45/17's on +48mm offset. Forget about tire chains though.It's the tire that's hard to fit, not the wheel.
  12. Tire Size Recommendation Request

    Those will be a little close to the rear fenders but should fit if they are rolled.
  13. Tire Size Recommendation Request

    If you had looked at this thread http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/frequently-answered-dsm-questions/286685-will-these-wheels-tires-fit.html you would know that there is no way you would fit 255's on those wheels. I'd say 235's are the widest you can use without complications.
  14. Lowering the car need alignment help.

    You should start by estimating your correction based on the amount of suspension height change. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/handling-tech/168194-question-about-camber-toe-camber-kits.html That should put you in the ballpark. Otherwise you should get a bubble type camber gauge. Habor...
  15. lower stress bar [Merged 12-8]

    It is generally felt that that that is not an area that requires reinforcment. A strut bar on the top may stiffen things a bit if you have a sunroof. It's the torsional stiffness that is lacking and there isn't much you can do, short of a roll cage, that will improve it.If you are set on...
