Detective_Dan's Build Round 3

[TommyXrunner]

I'm not gonna go to crazy with power mods. Intake, turbo-back exhaust, and tune probably.

I'm not sure I want to replace the suspension. She's sitting on nice bilstien shocks and eibach springs and handles great

maybe you could sell your eibach springs and get some shorter ones. they'd probably sell easily on one of the forums

they are 1/2 a pound heavier apiece, but are 1.25 inches wider, so i'd say that's decent

 

[TommyXrunner]

I hope so. 18x9.75 +20 offset, should look nasty

Wow. Why put xxr on a evo?
Have u seen xxr break before on a car mounted with normal driving?

I have seen plenty break and people wreck because of the cheap wheels.

I ran xxr wheels on my xrunner for a long time with no issues and I beat the hell out of them. Plenty of people break high end wheels as well. If you hit something at highway speeds, even OEM or expensive wheels can break. Most of the broken wheels pics are from when xxr first started out anyways. Rota wheels used to be the same way when they first came out but they're decent for what they are now. Thy all get tested for strength by the same standards. And have the same standards as other wheels.

+ they're just daily driving wheels. I'm not gonna track them, maybe other than the drag strip. Running a road course or auto cross, ill use the OEM's

Lol those dont look like no bbs. Or not aftermarket bbs.
Factory wheels are not stronger than real aftermarket wheels.

Just saying xxr are crap and just be careful with them.
Only hond kids use xxr. Because the honda so light and cheap it wont do any damgae to the xxr. :laugh:

Only reason why i spend the extra money and just get the real deal.

How the hell did these xxr break from the barrel? Lol
