is that a challenge?

Steve, what slicks did he get? I want to get some for the car once I get back.

 

************* got some hoosier white walls. and i just got notro inflated tires so im NOT deflating my tires for traction

 

he go with 16 inch steelies or did he get them for stock size rims?

 

ask him lol im sure he will see this and post..... im sure there 16s nice sport rims too

 

fix0rd for you.

Danew, I have Hoosier Quick Time Pro DOT slicks in size 26x9.5/16. Each tire is just over $200. My wheels ran $92 each. Wheel size is 16x7.5. These were the prices I paid brand new. Total price with shipping, mount/balance, fees, etc was just under $700 with Utah tax, which is more than out here.


edit: pic added. Yeah, I know the car is dirty in that pic, but notice the snow on the ground and the front lip of the car? I just drove through a storm to get those and make sure they fit.

 

lol thats dedication at its best. im still tryin to get me some lowering springs.. next payday ill be good to go pretty much

 

I can teach you,...if you want to learn.

edit: one of my friends in Denver needs a little help to get his SS/SC into a car show. If you follow this link (https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/lounge-42/vote-me-160481/) and do what it says it would be much appreciated. All he needs is your votes.

 

I love the QTP's, scared me the first time how hard I hooked up. Thought I lost the transmission.

 

holy ****... Doc returns to us!!!! where the hell have you been?

 

lol he's famous for randomly popping in and out like that....

 

indeed. indeed he does

 

He'll pop again in a few months. He's going away on a boat.

 

hmmm wonder how much i can get for my rims and tires... lol tirerack showed me many possibilies

 

Your not gonna keep your stock wheels/tires? I kept my stock 17"s, and thank god I did, b/c I bent one of my 19"s and ran over a nail in less than 2 months. This was like a year and a half ago. But I had my 17"s to fall back on while I saved up the cash to replace the wheel/tire.

 

Huh? You can't afford to race, but you can afford new tires and wheels? I get it now. You are not invited to the party at my in-laws house this weekend. They are leaving for the weekend and the wife and I have the place all to ourselves.

(Just kidding. There really isn't a party.)

I recommended that Steve polish his OE wheels. They would look unique and opriginal, and he wouldn't spend too much. Plus, I think they would look good with his silver stripes.



ETA to completion of project go fast is 16 hours 15 minutes. I can't wait.

 

i havent bought anything???? WTH are you guys talking about? im just talking possibilities?? i cant afford anything? but i like to do the research on things.. cost... what i want for future. is it sooo wrong to DREAM!>!>!> IS IT!?!?!??!

Connor your more than welcome to aid me in painting and polishing these wheels... find out how its done and lets get some SRTC Paint and paint the insides of the rims and polish the spokes.. then ill ahve only need for tires... and not rims...

 

Yes!

j/k Steve. I'm like you. I dream, then I find a way to make it happen. That's why I've been stock for over 3 years. Btw, if you want to go to the track on saturday I'll pay your fees. I know you want to learn how to launch your car. I'd be more than happy to ride with you when you make a pass and help you out. In TnT's and timetrials you can have a passenger.

 

You said "hmmm wonder how much I get for my wheels/tires" which to me sounded like you were considering selling them.

 

well i appreciate it but i have only 15 bucks for 2 weeks and not enough gas to make it either... and there is no was id even fathom letting you take care of fees and gas...

 

Ah, you're too kind. It's up to you.

 

i dont use my friends... no sir... as much as i want to race cause its my ultimate favorite thing to do.. and im extrememly happy when doing it... i must be patient...

 

all you genesis fellers shirts are ready to go all done all we need is 20 bucks each and let me know a size! and what you want your name to say...if you want a different one..

btw they are sick...

 

How are you using when they are offering? I know how racing is. It's my way of relaxing.

pics or ban

 

ohh shut up you saw them already..

 

yeah, after I posted that. guess i should have taken a camera with me.

guess i should figure out how a camera works first, huh.
