Just got them today. Still need to swap my 245/45-17's on them. The fronts have 225/50-17 and the rears have 235/50-17.

Vogtland springs/KYB GR2's

NO RUBBING...





Note: Droid Eris photos... (and angle of driveway doesn't help either, oh well)


...better ones to come later or never.

Center caps...

I posted this in another thread but thought you'd be interested Stagnet04. I see you have no front center caps, which is a common issue with these rims.

FRONT:


REAR:


My goal is to remove logo from rear center caps and purchase black/silver Nissan center cap stickers off eBay (tons of different designs), so the front and rear are the same and the hole on the front gets covered up.

Let me ask you this, did you try to shave down the back side of the front center caps as close as possible to see if they would fit before you made the hole? I have the infiniti center caps and saw in another post that it was possible to do this, but I dont want to risk ruining these cap. Sounds like a good idea. You gotta post pics of the after, cuz yeah it does bug the hell out of me....

A few things:

1. I recently installed aftermarket (beefier than OEM) front axles. Not sure if they set farther out than my OEM did or not.

2. The end of the axles sit completely flush with the top of the center cap, so I see no way for the axle to sit behind the center cap no matter how thin it is shaved.

3. The two plastic solder points have to be removed on the back to shave which removes the logo anyhow. It would need to be glued back on from the front if that'ss the route you want to attempt to take. But I don't see it working.
