Steve's rs200 progress thread

[KalahariFerrari]

They are 13cm. I think a amp would help the power slightly but it wont help with the fact that there is not a lot of bass i dont think. Been searching on here and i cant see if anyone has built any rear mounts.

Front are these ones :

thanks for the help, appreciated

can i run those speakers off the standard head unit or not?

The Fronts will plug straight in.

You'll need adaptors for the rear which are like...£3 or something.

I didn't ? just bent two lugs back and they screw straight in.

Be aware thought, Rears are not much better than standard IMO.

The rears were a massive upgrade for me.

Maybe it's your dodgy wiring

Ha Ha maybe ! ;/

Are you interested in these wheels as i will go out and brave the rain and get some photos up ? If not i will out them up in the for sale section over the weekend.

Speedlines are in for powder coating so should be on Monday morning.

 

[Rogue]

Is it rims only i assume?

 

[Jonesy07]

Yes mate.. will take a reasonable offer.

 

[Rogue]

Get the shots over whenever you can. No rush.

 

[Jonesy07]

Here they are, sorry a little dirty.

Just had a good check over and 3 are perfect and one has a small curb mark that has only effected the paint and not the alloy.







Last one showing the marks :



Centre caps included :001_rolleyes:

 

[Rogue]

Save 'em and i'll take 'em.

I'm coming down to Chi in a few weeks (they're supposed to be organising a meet down that way as well?). You ok to wait?

Mate, if i can trust your word then they are yours.

Will clean and box them up for you.

Yup, my word is my bond lol

Link mate :

Paid £90 per set and they are 20mm.( i got a bit of a deal as i bought springs from them as well) You then need to add bolts. Mine are 50mm which i think were £2.50 each plus locking wheels nuts at £40 ish. All in not cheap IMO.

Spacers were out of stock and i waited 10 days for delivery from Germany.

It's frustrating that the German seller does the 20mm ones but you need the bolts whereas a UK seller does the 25mm ones that don't need bolts but do cost more

I looked at this but IMO the 25mm is too much. I wanted 20mm rear and 16mm front but the only bolts i could get for the 16mm needed to be cut and i didn't want to get involved in it.

I am worried 20mm will be too much for the front and i will go back down the 16mm route. If so i will be able to sell you a set !

larkspeed sell 41mm bolts that work perfectly with 16mm spacers mate as both myself and BenW run them,when fully tightened they stick through the rear of the hub by a thread or 2 so perfect...

i wouldn't advise running different size spacers front and rear bud,if you put smaller spacers on the front compared to the rear you'll get some pretty good understeer from what i've read and heard.

I may take you up on that pal... 20 or 25 was my choice - Jase (founder) ran 25s and it looked brilliant!

Where in chi are you?:hug:
