new wheels: caution low clearance - GFXjamie - 03-26-2012

Picked up my wheels of chris (05Blackzx5) and after getting some tires through our man Ken, and a hook up on install from Cambridge tire i finally got them mounted.

The only thing i told my self is, if im too low to get into my driveway then i got a problem... well its a good thing i took calculus to say the least

It feels good to get the ol pontoons of the car and into something with a stiff sidewall again.

PS the SVT side skirts are getting paint matched to car!

For those wondering what the ride height is at measurement wise, 22 1/2" up front and 22 5/8" out back to the fender.

Looks deadly! Awesome taste Jamie!

i say we should just pave a smooth ramp going into your drive way so no more scraping haha.


RE: new wheels: caution low clearance - SL8RZZX3 - 03-27-2012

Looks good!
As I said on FB....
Needs Moar trunk and less spoiler!! lol
And definately paint the skirts... They look off with the roof


RE: new wheels: caution low clearance - konafocuswrc - 03-27-2012

I like it


RE: new wheels: caution low clearance - Focus man. Focus. - 03-27-2012

Looks really good man. Can't wait to see it in person.

Now that you got the show maybe you'll get some go!Tongue


RE: new wheels: caution low clearance - meford4u - 03-28-2012

List of things to do.....

1. Paint that thing on the roof.
2. Get rid of the stickers and then get rid of the g/f that made you put that sticker on your car that's says I love my g/f. WTF.
3. Go take that stuff in the trailer to the dump.
4. Reseal that driveway.

That ought to keep you busy. But the car looks great. But I wouldn't want to ride in it. My back just cringes looking at it.

Damn that looks good i was going to pick those up for my svt but you beat me to it, good to see them on a sick focus. Now to get my Borbet Type A's and Remotec Type B's mounted Smile


RE: new wheels: caution low clearance - _JET_ - 03-28-2012

Looks awesome, where are you getting the skirts painted and are they resonably priced?


RE: new wheels: caution low clearance - 0XDESVT - 04-01-2012

If you ever want to sell the rims let me know looking for some Borbet Type B's getting rid of my Type A's


RE: new wheels: caution low clearance - NOS2Go4Me - 04-03-2012

I'm a rally-style guy but I approve of this setup! Nice work man!

RE: new wheels: caution low clearance - 0XDESVT - 04-04-2012

Alright thanks, i think the borbet type b's are quite possibly the best looking borbets out there, I'm currently in contact with a guy who's going to sell me his borbet 3 Piece Type A's
