Amen. 32 has 265s all round, once the lips were done I've had no problem with scrubbing :) The 31 has stretch though.

I suspect it's because the wheels don't fit in the guards lol. That and John never listens. Ever.

Oh! Is that all! I thought it may have been because he's fully sic and rad kewl. :)

I cant wait to get real rubber on my car, this cheese cutter tyre onto fat rims thing is gayer than aids, Ima need a good lip rolling first though

225 on 10.5's is not gay

Anyone know any good tyre puncture repair places that don't charge as much as a new tyre would cost?

I paid $35 to repair a tire at bridgestone newstead. Was a pretty wide screw that came out as well

Direct quotes:

Jax "225 on a nine and a half? you're joking? we can't do that!"

Bob Jane "That tyre size is completely wrong. It's illegal. I won't do it. I don't even want it near my workshop!"

Goodyear "...our machine is too old for that"

K-mart Tyre/Auto "how did they even get that on there in the first place?"

I had the same problem with 225's on 10.5's at a place new the valley. Said I was a lair.. So then I took him out to my car.

265/55/18 is for poofs

why would any one use a 55 profile on 18s?

Ok i concede, having the power to bake bicycle tyres with no sidewall give to aid traction is pretty f**king awsome!

No idea. You being a homo I just thought of the most homo size.

And you're not listening to these people because?

because they're having a cry about something that can obviously be done

The wheels fit in the guards just fine. The problem was scrubbing before the guards were rolled. So I bought tyres that would fit, and not scrub every time I looked at the car. Now I have the 225s until I wear them out, and then will be replacing with something slightly larger now that the guards are rolled.

Remember I had to get tyres STRAIGHT away according to My. Policeyman who pulled me over and let me off. So I didn't have time to wait for the guards to get rolled.

I thought that was a given? John is the most hectik bro I've ever met. He even has full sick dose uleh

big <3

that they do, thats why you buy tyres that FIT :O

They DO fit... as long as people actually TRY it instead of just crying about it :P

they should use a 115 15 18 i reckon, then put it on a 13 inch wide rim....would give killer handling and ride!

because they're having a cry about something that can obviously be done

Its like homer and the deep fried shirt, I didnt say they couldnt, I said you shouldnt :P

but given your desire for larger tyres next time and being stuck with the 225's for now i totally understand your point of view

And who wants to hear today's police story?

Go!

Also Josh did you know we are both in the top 40 posters on this site...so much wasted youth whoring :P lol

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
