  1. I recently replaced the Rays with 19" wheels with 275/35 tyres. I now have rubbing in the rear. Wheels are ET12, no spacers and the car is lowered on Eibach Pros which is about a 30mm drop.  Is the only way to get around the rubbing to have the arches rolled, or could a smaller tyre possibly resolve this? 265/35 or 265/30??

     

    I don't have anyone that offers rolling locally, so I would have to buy the tool and DIY it. Anyone with a similar setup able to help?

  2. i was watching the lane splitting and i believe in some states thats not actually illegal to do?

     

    It's illegal in NYC as far as I know.

     

    So if you were in RR drivers situation, surrounded by an angry mob that was apparently rocking, and according to some reports attacking the car with helmets and knives, what would you have done?

  3. As a biker what are your thoughts on the liveleak videos I posted?

     

    They did eventually get the RR driver out and attacked him leaving him unconscious. One of the bikers is possibly paralysed, what ever transgression that the RR driver may have committed to prompt the chase/brake-check, they have his plates and may have him on camera just report him to the police.

     

    As for who is to blame? The bikers Surrounding and from what I've read, rocking/attacking the car escalated everything. If I had a wife and kid in a car that was being attacked by a large group I'm not sure what else I could do but try to escape.

  4. Now we're talking - that looks good, although not far off the price of a new stereo - doesn't seem to have a phono connection if you just want to directly connect an mp3 player either.

     

    You can connect an mp3 player, if you purchase the RCA cable separately. They want £20 for the iPhone cable so it probably wont be cheap.

     

    No problem Rob, was kinda hoping more people had experience with these but it looks like we might have to be the guinea pigs.

  5. I need to get to work and I refuse to get a train for some light snow

     

    I personally wouldn't risk my car in the snow, its not just you skidding/loosing control you have to worry about, its others who don't adapt their driving to the weather.The way some people drive in the snow or even heavy rain is crazy.

     

    I'd rather just pay the price for a train journey, less stress and the Z will be safe.
