Wheels available?!?!

[FX35_829]

I have 3 questions I was wondering about:

1) Does anyone have any 20" wheels for sale (black with chrome lip) or know where I can find some nice used ones?

2) How can I powdercoat 20" stock wheels and with what do I coat it with? Also where can I have this done?

3) What will a strut bar or sway bar do for my ride? (improve handling?etc?)

Goodlooking out on the help!:tonguey:

+1 search bar is your good friend
but here is your questions

1. Ebay or Craigslist or even here just search
2. Powder coating takes time/skills
3. Strut bar helps you from body rolls

 

[FX35_829]

What are body rolls(ima newb) and is there anyone(shop,etc) that can powdercoat them for me? I dont really have access to a garage where I can do it myself. Thanks dopie

google powdercoating in cerritos CA, some local shops may pop up. I had some wheels PD in Downey.



body roll is when the car leans one way or another during cornering (body dipping to the left or right)

I wouldnt say it helps with body roll, but rather body flex. Tighten up the chassis, & you get a better handling & more communicative driving experience.

RAWR
thats what i ment body flex

 

[FX35_829]

You mean sway bars help with bodyflex right? I heard strut bars are pretty much just for show? if not what does a strut bar do?

not on the FX, the strut bar actually helps out a lot on our cars

ill use the box analogy: think of an open box. You see how its not very stiff and how it moves around but when you close the top it gets stiffer...same thing with the engine bay. The Strut bar acts as the top and ties the ends of the box together

 

[MTN FX]

STB and rear lateral and tie braces connects at different but crucial points in the suspension setup. By connecting these points the braces distribute the applied forces evenly to increase responsiveness and predictability and in the case of the FX it would increase oversteer.

MTN_FX i have no idea what you just said lol so bottom line get a strut bar and dont get sway bars?

 

[Krayzie]

they dont make aftermarket sway bars for the FX, so you dont need to worry about them

Gtspec or stillen ?? Votes guys

 

[dopie]

[Krayzie]
