Thanks guys.

The wheels are 17x9.5 front and 17x11 rear. Tires are 275/40/17 front and 315/35/17 rear. I'm using 1.75" spacers all around. I got the wheels and tires as a combo from here. www.tomswheelz.com

I need to lower the car a little, but its going to be a balancing act to keep my exhaust intact.

 

Where did you get your hitch? and how much can it hold? by the looks of things I might need to put a hitch on mine as well. although, I would like to find one that you can completely remove when you don't need it. since i'll seldom need it.

 

i'm not gonna lie, that hitch is a bitchin' idea...and is making me reconsider a few things....hmmm....

 

Well, when you're poor like me and can't afford a car trailer, a trailer like this is the next best thing. There aren't many other options when you need to haul your tires and tools to throw down at the track, but go home on safe tires.

I got the hitch in terrible condition from a fellow auto-x buddy for shipping, which was $20 LOL. I sandblasted it and painted it and it looks like new. It is held on with 6 bolts and is really easy to take on and off. I typically leave it on unless I'm going to a car show or something.

 

I really like that setup. Do you have any rubbing issues front or rear? Did you need to "massage" the rear inner fender to make the 11's fit? I was thinking that a 9 up front and 10 on the rear would do, but it seems like you made the 9.5's and 11's fit fairly easy.

I had a dual setup before, but recently went with mufflex 4" catback style. The lowest point for me is the y-pipe around the crossmember.

 

what wheels are those. i love those wheels

 

ZR1 wheels.

As for the hitch i think its not too noticeable, at least its not like chrome lol
I think its a good idea, better than watching my buddy cram his spare tires in his FC RX7 and then have someone follow him with his tools and his 4 new tires for the end of the day

this guy has like 3 diffferent sets of factory wheels he just cycles out as they blow lol then again he runs drift events so it might tear em up just a lil faster

You have a clean car man i love it

 

Now we got some snow in SW Ohio, followed by the usual ice storm that just messes everything up!



I love the ice on the door strip! No way to get in the car, not that I would try but even if I had to, I couldn't. Door handle has 3/4" ice over it!

 

There is tons more along the passenger side but I didn't want to run around the car in shorts. Another 20cm's of snow coming

 

man we got hit with the ice bad but we had more powerline damage and tree damage. My iroc is thankfully in the garage. Sad to see a covered iroc in the snow. Thats alright at least the ice wont damage the car. That snow is deep man we only had 4-6 inches and 2 inches of ice.

 

How long wre you out of electric? 3 days here.

 

Man we still are... we lost it about mid day tuesday. Line fell and ripped the weather head off the house. So we have to get it repaired and inspected then reconnected. So even when our town gets power we wont. They estimated 1-3 weeks. Im telling you this generator stuff is starting to get old. -Matt

 

Wow thats terrible. We escaped to a friends house in Cincinnati. He never lost it. Keep your hopes up, they will get it fixed!

 

not bad look at mine from last year lol

 

OMG lol thats INSANE!!!!!

 

ya and the car was on jacks to

 

I remember those days with my Vette up in Rochester, NY. For some reason the car looks prettier with the white backdrop of the snow. Makes it worthwhile waiting for spring to come around again. Makes you feel as if you had a new car all over again!

 

I'm really glad mine is tucked away in the garage. I let the Jeep sit out in the snow. I agree, Ohio winters suck and I really don't miss the days when I had to use my '87 Camaro as a daily driver. Just getting out of the driveway was and adventure!

 

Hey Snyder Long time no see. Car looks great even in the snow.

As you can tell from my sig I dont have a 3rd Gen anymore.

Anyway thought I would check to see what you been up too, would like to get into the Auto X and Road course racing, this drag strip stuff is getting old, and the car doesnt really have to hall ***** to have fun with on a road course.

If you OHIO guys have a meet and great or a cruse Let me in on it, I could round up a few other 4th Gen guys to join in on the fun.

 

f that i wouldve moved after i seen my car like this.

 

That pic ^^^^ is what all the cars in a local junkyard looked like this week when i went for parts. I walked on top of the snow that was on top of the cars lmao.

 

your car looks awesome. at first i didn't realize it was a hitch...sucks you have to have it on there(no truck and trailer to hall) but you shouldn't be getting crap for having it.
