Ran across this product while researching wheel balancing tech. From the many forum comments, I was able to gather that the majority that have used it are more than thrilled. There is no "Scientific" data that I have seen to back up the products claims, or the long term problems that "may"...

Enrique Very glad you got your Supra back in about one piece. GL on finding both the other Supra and the Culprits. If you don't mind could you fill us in with a few more details, so that some good can come out of this for all concerned? You said Factory alarms are shit, was yours...

Guess I need to learn Japanese ^^^

Suprajjang The Richmond meet last year turned out great. A cruise to a resturant would be nice at arround supper time. ForceFed, thanks for your service to our Country. When will you be returning to the States ? A possibility might be to meet at MD Intl Raceway. Buds Creek MD. I...

Saw Yes 3 piece. No not mounted as yet, need to find a decent shop to mount my tires on them first. I did google and find a decent web site that gave me the calculations for determining offset. I suppose I could have done that on my own, but if we did that everytime we wouldn' have the...

Saw and Rodel Measurements are 140mm backspace and 9 inch wide wheel. That 140mm measurement is where the inside lip of the tire would sit. It is 150mm to the end of the wheel itself. I did a measurement to find centerline of wheel , and then measured from backside of hub to it and got...

Correct Rodel I used it wrong. Saw Backspacing ? do not understand the terminology. Thanks

I was looking a my uninstalled Work VS Rear wheels and noticed a label on the inside. Amongst other thing listed it had the offset. It reads -18. Well I ordered 35 offset so I became alarmed. So I plug the dimensions into the offset calculator and find that -18 gives me the same inner and...

Thanks Rear rim is 9 inch. Stock springs currently, but have eibach and Illumina 2's to install.

CJ Your last reply was exactly my concern. If you had a 43 offset then I should have 8mm more with the 35 on the inside. I have not mounted the tires to the rim as yet. I was just eying up my clearance with the car on jack stands and wheel temp fitted. Using a straightedge on the...

Thanks SY Just makes me wonder how ^^ Using a straight edge the lower spring support will defineately hit on mine. Which means it must ride above the tire and rim.

Steve A few years back I purchased an Unorthodox lightweight pulley. It never made it on the engine. I sold it on eBay, I probably should have just swallowed the loss. Reason I sold it is the article I have provided a link to. Many others on here will tell you the same, forget it. I do...

Recently got 4 Work VS Wheels. Offset front is 30 with 235/4517, Rear offset 35 with 255/40/17. I read the Wheel fitment thread and did converse with BorHor about these offsets. My question is this. When I temp mount the rear wheel it seems that it is darn close to the lower spring...

SoundsLikeme I am Mark last name Davis, seems I get remembered as David due to last name ^^ Yes I have the Midnight Blue Supra. Glad you got yours up and running Donald , nice to meet you also ^^

Bor The price does not bother me, but why extended ?

Cajun Why don't you simply dissasemble the driveshaft you feel is out of sync and reassemble properly ? This is not a difficult task and the proper alignment can be found in the TSRM. Just a thought ^^

Bottom line on the rocker panel looks straight from the pics. Get it up in the air and check the floor panel in that area. Looks like you may get away with a door, some good pounding and paint. Asall have said, best that you are fine, but if your anything like me, getting it fixed and pronto...

Hi all Got to meet many of you last June in Richmond. I am from PA but find that other than the Philly group you seem to be shall I say a closer knit group. Many years ago when I restored VW's I attended some damn good meets, many at tracks similiar to MD INTL Raceway. There were many...

wil and jesse and bor, thank you all. Jesse, I checked out that link and those seem more than adequate. Appreciate that extra effort.

Thank you both. Just an observation on my part here. Bor you are using extended lugs, seems like if I go extended then the lug is really visible. What I mean is, the wheel would seem to hide the end of the lug if I went with a non-extended lug nut. With an extended lug much more of it is...
