Silencer of some sort.

BTW Sze, I have the exact same thoughts RE: tone of the exhaust. I'm kind of hating the boominess under 4k.

@ Sasso: Its the silencer. Broady's RS*R has a sexy silencer which is hard to see. Whilst my one is some fugly one :P

@ Rims comment: ahahah, I've been obsessed with the TE37Vs.

15x7 +18 (S Lip) <- Looking at this as its lower offset, so I'm hoping for some epic TE37 +15 concavity. But alas, I've yet to seen this and how concave these get, if they aren't concave enough then....
15x8 +0 (M Lip) <- But if I go this path, I'll be VERY tempted to grab some Tuckin 99 small flares, not the N2 ones. Then I'll need to get a MP62 S/C to make it go as fast as it looks :( Gots any pictures Phil?

Who you callin soft

that's a 15x10 -22, so it wont look like that.

Sze- ill have a look out for some pics :wink:, but i still say, concave te37's in the 14x6.5 +15

This is 15x8 +25

Image

But i can tell you that probably 15x8+0 would start looking good, with dish and slight concave, negative offsets will look the best tho, so best bet... stick with what i said above... self explanatory picture below.

Image


This is 15x8 +0, on a hachi, should look similar

i'm starting to really like that 14 x 6.5 + 15.

concavity > dish for te37's does it for me.
