Mate that is 100% fine! im not sure why you are concerned! thats with the car on a hoist! Mine looks exactly the same. Just put some tyres on and set this thing on the ground....

Dont sell them!! drop your car and they will be perfect! when I jack my car up, mine look like they would never tuck in, but they do easily.

Hey Petrodolo I find it hard to beleive they are sticking out so far - is that with the car on a hoist? Here is Spoolin's car front and rear pics with 19 x 9.5 +35 all round with 245 tyres. The car has been lowered about 1.5-2" Yours would be exactly 5mm further out the guards - as you can see it would still fit perfectly. Unless they are 10" wide as your boxes suggested...

Thats awesome! You shouldnt have to roll anything, Just be careful on tyre size, a 245 or 255? should be sweet. If you go something too wide then they will scrub the guards. but +30 will look sweet! cant wait to see pics when they are on.

thats the width. It should be stamped somewhere on the back of the wheels hub or spokes. You may also have a sticker on the inside of the rim. Should look something like 19 x 9.5J +35 etc. 19 being the rim diameter, 9.5J being the width and a + or - number being the offset. Looking at the pics of your rims you would have a positive offset on those, probably around +30 or more. If its higher than +35 you will need to run spacers on the front to clear the front control arm, if its lower than +30 you will need to roll your guards. So basically it will be perfect at 9.5J + 35 to +30 and you wont have to do anything other than fit tyres!

What are the offsets PetroDola? Are they rolling or flaring the guards? The fronts are already "rolled" from the factory, the rears can be rolled. Is yours a RS? let me know the offset and I can work out exactly how far out from the factory guards they will sit, or if they will foul the front control arm. Ben

Are they 19x10 all round? Whats the offset? 10" fit in the rear pretty easy pending the offset, 9.5" +35 are perfect on the front. Im sure with a bit of a flair and tyre stretch you can comfortably fit 10" up front depending on your offset

spotted a Silver C34 S2 this morn on Pittwater road, Monavale. Around 9:45am

Can I borrow your turbo while its all out! I hear these things can seize up if they don't get frequent use

What front pipe did you get?? I need to do front, cat and dump soon and then hit the drags again

What about these guys - www.g-zone-r.com I noticed one of their chipped VQ25DET ECU's on Yahoo auctions. It seems they tune all the M35 ecu's out there! I wonder if they could pass on some technology to SAS or someone so we can have ours chipped here. Im sure they could do a simple chip with boost and speed limit cut...

I dunno about the 2% range for difference in circum. At least not with the M35's atessa. I had no probs with staggered on my C34 or R32 but for some reason the same doesnt work on my M35. Had nothing but probs with staggered wheels. It might have just been my car, but I have read similar problems from other M35 owners...

To save yourself a lot of hassles, run the same size rim and tyre combo all the way around.

haha I know... Ill go back and beat that time, 14.3 is the target next time

I missed you Dale! Chris would have been near by in his silver M35 too. had a blast at the drags! gotta get out there again soon

Well Spoolin and I went out to WSID last night and popped our drag cherries in the stags! Had a blast, but it was so busy we only got a couple of runs in over the 4 hours there! So we are itching to get back and better our times. But great fun. I had one decent launch but I think I backed off before I passed the line, because my mph was lower than my slowest run...? which doesnt make sense to me. Best run was: 60' - 2.007 330 - 5.897 1/8 - 9.185 1/4 - 14.468 MPH 93.89 Km/h - 151.10 Only modification is cat back exhaust. So I was happy to get lower than 14.5 Ben.

Fronts will fit fine, but your rears will stick out the guards at 10" +35 offset. For the rears you will need +45 for a perfect fitment - I tried 8.5" up front with 10" on the rear on my M35 but my attessa went nuts, now I have 8.5 all round with the correct offsets and no problems. The ideal size is 9.5 with a +35 offset all round.

your not convincing anyone here - be the first and manual conversion this bad boy! I only wish my stagea was manual, it would be a weapon with a real manual set-up and 300kw!

thats freakin awesome scott! cant wait to hear about your next 1/4 mile efforts!

Its underneath the glove box to the left. Car looks sweet!

haha no way! Thats gold. Do you know Olly?

Ive also worked in the bike industry for the past 10years - roof racks all day! thats my personal preference. They will be cheaper than having a tow-bar fitted if you dont have one. I would recommend the Thule Range - in particular the Thule Proride 591. These can take pretty much any bike, including heavy DH bikes. I have 2-3 fitted on my racks. They take about 10sec to fit your dirty bike to and go. Just dont forget they are on the roof if you are going through any low carparks etc!

Yep keen as! I can make spoolins suggestion... im easy. just set a date and lets do it!

So how is everyone looking? Jetwreck you got the beast running yet? Lets get this show on the road! let me know if there is anything I can do Ben.

haha just checked and all the goodies are still on my car... his was totally stock...
