Spacers aren't actually a problem when bought from a reputable manufacturer, I personally had them on a 71 trans am I used to have with a 455 big block with over 600 lb ft of torque at the wheels and raced almost every weekend with it for over a year with no problems; I never found a rim the right width for it that also had the correct backspacing to look right on it and theres a ton of 2nd-3rd gen camaro owners that do the same to put the newer corvette rims on. Never buy the cheap ones though they're complete trash and the reason why spacers get a bad name.

I'll post some pics tomorrow when I get off work but I have a 88 camaro iroc-z (red, t-tops 79k miles), 65 ford fairlane 500 4 door (also red, odometer quit working close to 20 yrs ago), 86 monte carlo ss (white t-top car also, duals, edelbrock carb, intake, crane cams roller cam ported heads 80k og miles), a 72 pontiac catalina coupe w/ the 400 big block (kind of a green/grey metallic, black vinyl top duals with glasspacks 73k og miles). I also have a 65 ford econoline 5 window pick up I've been getting ready to restore with an extremely rare trim option.

I know I have alot of toys. :) and yes I know it didn't happen without pics and ill have em up tomorrow.

Thanks for the info I was was always worried about running them on my S14 so I didn't. And damn dude you have alot of cars! I actually almost traded my S14 for a 86 Camaro but picked up a Civic instead. But now I want a another car so I'm looking at used wrx and sti but thinking about getting a Tahoe also

Lol thanks and yeah I do and it's a pain in the ass to detail all of them. Right now though they're all in storage at my parents till next spring other than my iroc which will be put up in a couple weeks, it's never been in snow once since my brother bought it new and I don't plan on it ever happening, they have a monster barn they let me store them all in through winter and I drive a POS 90 chevy astro I use to get back and forth to work in, suckers pushing past 270k miles and still running though.

I just thought I'd throw the info out about the spacers cause alot of ppl are terrified to use them. I've considered getting a subaru a few times but I can't bring myself to buy non american unless it's a skyline r33 or r34, an s13 or s15 silvia, or a true jdm rx7 don't ask why but 6 or 7 yrs ago I decided if I bought an import it had to be one of them. I really like the wrx and sti though they handle great and have pretty good useable power ranges.

edit: heres picks of everything but the camaro and the old econoline. They are pretty dusty after being in there the past month or so even being covered up. Also the lighting in there is pretty much non existent so some are hard to see.

Catalina (i know it looks very stock but the 400 big block in it has high compression pistons right around 11:1 with how the heads are milled, ported heads from a 69 gto, full length headers hooker headers, holley 850 carb, and a weiand high rise intake among other things. Pretty much a sleeper till I start it, it has 3" dual exhaust with glasspacks and the megaphone style 4" chrome tips so it's pretty f'in loud.

Fairlane (last thing to do is dress up engine bay, its actually alot louder than the catalina, has duals with flowmaster bullet race mufflers so the exhaust is pretty much like having straight pipes off the headers, won many exhaust rap offs with it. :) )

Thanks man, I actually like the r33 more too but they are becoming alot harder to find these days and the price is insane on most of them.

Yeah the monte is a beast, it was my uncle from tennessee's car, he bought it brand new and repainted it the same day. He didn't change the color just stripped the decals and clear coat, wet sanded and resprayed the clear to get rid of the nasty factory orange peel in the paint so itd be more of a show car finish. He was a professional body man btw.

At the post a few up wheres a falcon? Do you mean the fairlane 500 I have or did I miss a post? They are basically the same car though, chassis and drive-train wise. Oh I just remembered, the fairlane I have was actually bought brand new like 10 minutes from where I live, sat in a barn since 78, took back to the same dealership about 10 yrs ago as a complete basket case and thats when I got it, it ran when I got it but other than the engine, tranny and interior (still all original inside), I replaced almost everything on it even did the paint myself in a friends spray booth.

The Lexus business is kind of true. Mitsubishi first introduced adaptive cruise control though Toyota first introduced a radar based system. However, it was Mercedes that first combined the radar system with automatic braking. These systems were all introduced around the same time so it seems these systems were developed simultaneously. Overall, it seems that MB and Toyota bring most of the new technology to the field with the former bringing a little bit more.

True about the Audi vs Suby thing. My only point wasn't to suggest the two were directly comparable but rather to show that luxury cars tend to have more bells and whistles and thus have more things that can break and go wrong.

On another note, I cleaned up the avant this weekend. I'm looking to make it handle a little better and look more aggressive. I think I'll lower it with a stasis spring and sway bar kit. Anyone have any suggestions on wheels?
