Default GoTiGo Vs platanos
Had a pretty busy day. Trevor came by today and picked up the 3.45 LSD I was holding for him. We installed it and went for a quick drive. A friend of mine gave me some 215/45 for the ACS wheels. Although they are not the size I wanted (215/40 or 35), I was excited to see them on. I was rubbing like crazy at first but then adjusted the KW's just about all the way up.

I was nice to meet you Trevor and I'm glad you like the diff.








After I ran the coils up...good enough for now I guess...

I agree they both look great. I really need to clean up my body work though. Hey, don't forget to change the diff fluid when you get the chance.

I'm going to look for some bumper slats and maybe some mud flaps. Your car looks great with both of them!

Those are what offset ACS wheels? They look like E34 or E30 M3 offset vs my Et 38 which have less of a concave look.

Both look nice, KW makes nice coil overs.

They are in fact e34 wheels. 18x8.5 et15. I'd prefer 17" but these are starting to grow on me. I need some 215/40 so I can go just a little lower. The KW's are great so far, no complaints here.
