How much did you pay for the full setup?? And was it hard to install and how much of a drop was it

---

Bilstein pkg http://parts.ajusa.com/ajusa/stores/...6c19f643caed26


I paid approx 550.00 for everything
Labor was free, well maybe not completely free I lost some skin on the knuckles...but not to bad to install, my borrowed spring compressor sucked!!!! went to tire shop and paid $20 to remove and install new springs, best $20 i have spent in a while.

Thanks 01RaptorTA, I knew it had to be lowered with 18's, it sat to hi.

I got the TTMs 17X9 up front 17x10.5 in back with 315s.

How is the ride quality with your set-up? Hows it compare to stock? Would you have gone a different route if you had done it over?

Car looks awesome and has a great stance!!!

It’s definitely a harder ride but not to harsh, the Bilstein springs use a progressive spring which under normal conditions it’s not to bad but once you start leaning on it they stiffin right up. The car tracks MUCH better in the corners and no more pushing. I wouldn’t do anything different except put wider tires on the rear; I didn’t at the time because it was my daily driver and wanted to rotate tires.

Thanks for the compliments,
Marc

What brand tires did you go with? Any rubbing with that combo? Any modifications that you had to make. I am assuming that you have the stock suspension (not lowered). I am considering a set of Chrome TTM's for my WS6 and just want to make sure that rubbing won't be an issue.

I decided to sell my rims and get a set of ruffs, based on how utterly badass those look. I wonder how they'd look in 18s...do you have any type of lowering springs on yours? I have an eibach prokit with 17s, the longtubes scrape as it is. Not sure if i like how big the rim is, but 18 would definitely give me a lift and help clearance. Also, how much did you pay for yours, excluding tires?

i had eibach prokit on it. i paid 1500 shipped with tires. not sure what the price would have been w/o tires, under 1000 im sure.

Awesome. Where did you get them from?

iv seen them on ebay

I looked, they dont have any 18x9.5 in 42+ backspacing.

if i recall, mine is 19x9.5 with +45 offset in hte rear. these are the last of the 278's i think there being discontinued so it might be hard to find the exact size n color you want, keep looking you'll find it. i got mine off ebay.

^^ this is a true thing said my friend iv was going to get some last week and had no luck

My Trans am ws6 with tt2's.

What? Dammit! I wanted those wheels too. I guess I will go with the 279's or the 280's, but I am unsure of what color centers or where I can get the offset I need.

how wide are your wheels?

I ordered 18 x 8 and 18 x 9 combo , they were on back order for 3 months ( still are ) so I got inpatient and had them ship four 18 x 8. 245/40/18 front & 285/35/18 Nitto Drag's on the back. I was worried about killing the traction but it still pulls some 1.6 60ft.

How wide is the lip on the 18x8? I was thinking of going 18x9 all the way around, but I actually like the look of the 8's. Yours is the 1st car I've seen with the 8's all the way around, I like it! The wider tire fit fine on the back?

And do you have any more pics, maybe close ups and one from the back?

Oh, and any idea what the wheels weigh?



Thanks!

No spacers, just perfect offset.

Looks great!

How do you like the Hankooks?

So far theyve been great, my old ones were some dry-rot arizonians, its what was on the car when i got it, no traction, i could get sideways all over the place, with a V6. These are about an inch and half wider, but they look a lot wider than that, theyre also a lower profile, which im assuming stiffens up the sidewall. But these things stick like glue, i was pulling onto a slick wet road tonight, turning, and could just break them loose. Theres a noticeable amount of road noise, probably from increased width, but its not enough to bother me, and the ride is really smooth, train tracks and potholes are still a bitch though.

Where and what is TR? What brand of wheels?

SS Goblin, I will guess that you are in the Air Force and by the looks of it, that is the Chesapeake bay. Langley AFB?

You guys are going to have to help me decide. I'm stuck on the fence over the Torque Thrust IIs and the Torque Thrust Ms.

Which one would look better on my car?

M's

Cool, thanks man. Just need a few more inputs and then I'll make my decision. Should put up a voting booth huh?

Word of advice...think about how much tires are going to cost on 12" wide wheels...

11 inch rims and they are about 120 per tire for the 278/40/17s/ Not bad

275 will not fit in an 11" wide rim... You'd need 305 atleast.

GO ARMY!!!

But not anymore. I use to work at PAX River. You are correct on the Bay.

cool man. Good people anyway.

275's will fit on 11'' wide ttII's look on tirerack at the ttII's it will say what size tires will fit.

are you sure? 235's fit on my 9.5 in rims, theyre stamped 9.5, but i measured them as 10

Might fit...but sure isn't recommended.

The amount of lip on that wheel with a 275 tire would be rediculous and look horrible. I have a thin 315 on my 17x11 TTII's and there is still a bit of lip.

Thats really good to know,i just orderd the ttII's 11 in the rear.Now i know not ever to get 275's for the rear. :sillyme:Thanks Mr.Luos

Finally got mine installed about 3 weeks ago now. Love em. 17X9.5's up front and 17X11's in the back.

275 40ZR 17's in the back are too small so, I think 305's might be just right. Will have to wait though. Just have to love the ones I'm with.
