new wheels and tint, going on ez streets next week

 

Looks good!

But tires look small on it. What size are you running? Also why didnt you go staggered, it would have filled the rear nicely.

 

245/30/20....i was going to go staggered, but was told by every tire shop not to for the AWD...

 

Nice! Are those TSW?

 

Do research before listening to guys at the shops. You can do awd and staggered set up. My summer and winter sets of wheels are both staggered set ups. You just need the same rolling diameter (i think that's the correct term) in the front n back wheels. Basically it's all about the tire sizes I'm no expert but I do llisten to the ones in this forum.

 

Im AWD staggered and no issues, ya def take advice from this board instead of outside.

You do know when you lower an AWD it will vibrate and whobble

 

Ive read that, but a few with the EZ Streets have reported no issues, just hoping its not too bad!!

 

The brand of springs or coilovers does not matter to the AWD. What matters is the amount of drop, because the cv axles were design too short for our cars. The slightest drop allows the axles to fit loosse, so you get vibes and whobbles. If you add length (spacer 9-10mm) to the cv axle this should cure the vibrating and whobbles.

Also what I believe has some effect is how the wheel alignment is adjusted. The more negative camber the more it helps stopping vibrations. This is why I believe, certain GS AWD's vibrate with Fsport springs and others don't.

With the EZ streets you might be able to get away with 1" drop, play with the adjustments till you get it right.

 

I appreciate the help, this forum is great!!
Where could I get these spacers?

 

Those look like the Ace Alloys. What offsets did you get them in?

 

Any metal fabrication shop should be able to make the spacers for you.

Wheels look fine you need to drop that bad girl and you will be good. They do look like TSW wheels.

 

Looks great. I plan to go all the same on my AWD, too, so I can rotate and get some decent life out of the tires.

 

Actually from a company out of Montreal, reasonable and a nice wheel, thank you...going for the drop next week....blacked out the roof today though and love the look.
