I already use crappy old doonahs but I'd rather the peace of mind knowing that there something a bit thicker on there...

I also hate going down the next day (... like today!) and take all the sopping wet doonahs off..

This is something that i will be looking into now as well, especially with all of the extreme weather that we are supose to be getting this storm season

there's a company in Japan that makes car covers in generic shapes, which is a soft cloth/velour material with a rubber layer on top. The rubber layer is actually inflatable, so you put the cover on and then blow up the rubber layer, giving you this awesome 5cm layer of air cushioning against projectiles.

I'll see if I can dig it up for ya.

5cm of protection wont help if you get toyko hail like in th movie "day after tommorrow"... LOL

Yeah funky i have seen these on the net somewhere....

(OK 10 minutes later)

This is what i found....

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
