Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Sonoma county is much better, better wines, better hospitality, better roads. Dry creek road I. Healdsburg is for sure best spot, hit Bella wine caves, or you can head an exit or two up and go to Coppola, but all the best wines are Sonoma county.

Plus in napa it's Bottle Rock weekend so there's an extra 50k plus MORE people than normal, hella traffic. Just sound advise

 

At least you respond, that ASSHOLE(who shall remain nameless)!!!! In reno still owes me a pair of rocksliders!!!

....................................................................................Still waiting!!!!!!

 

Anyone in Sacramento/Nor Cal selling any BLHM Headlights?

 

Sounds good

lol

You could ask brian if he would build you a pair, he does a very good job, not sure if you would need to supply the headlights or not though.

 

I still need to do this. Have everything for the BHLM and projector retro, just haven't got around to doing it yet.

On another note. I need to push my front wheels/tires out more with the new suspension (front tires rub on my Light Racing UCAs during a sharp turn and suspension compression). Should I get spacers, wheels with less backspacing or different UCAs? Any input would be appreciated

This is just neat.

 

Suggest SCS wheels 4.30 back spacing, if you decide to go with different control arms I am interested in the LR UCA's. SCS come in several colors and set tires out at the edge.

 

He has SCS wheels, the F5 series.

 

I know the F5's and F6's do have different offsets though, so that could make a difference.

 

F5's are 4.50 back space, 6's with 4.30 net .20 of an inch. almost a 1/4 inch. 1/5 of an inch. yet a 17" tire instead of 16".

 

Alright my friends I am challenging all of you to help me and my family as we train and raise money to beat blood cancers. If I can get 3,000 dollars donated to my website in the next 3 weeks time, I will let one of our Honorees on Ironteam shave my head in support of all cancer patients. Please donate if you can, but if you can't all I ask is that you share this with all of your friends. Next month will mark the 17th anniversary of my grandmothers passing from Leukemia, and my aunt is currently in her 6th year of remission. Thank you for you time, Go Ironteam!

If your issues with rubbing is 1/4 of an inch, there has to be other cheaper ways to fix the issue than buying new rims and tires.

 

Yeah, the idea of new wheels and tires is not very appealing to me right now

So far, it has only happened under a specific set of circumstances. Basically, if I go into a tight turn while slowing down, the outside tire rubs on something. It has happened twice now. First time was rubbing on the driver side front while making right hand turn while slowing down on a decline. The second time was on the passenger front when turning left and slowing down on a incline.

It almost feels like the outside tire broke traction. The second time it happened is when I figured something was rubbing. I can't find any definite rub marks yet so it hasn't been real easy to diagnose. Pic below is why I'm thinking it is my wheel/tire/UCA issue. The picture is the driver front tire turned full right.

 

1in spacers up front should do the trick, pretty cheap too compared to new wheels

 

TNT!! My friend made it in the 25 year poster!! She's a mentor here in the Bay Area! Good luck!

 

Check Alex's (sytfu) build page. He has them listed there.

Mike! thanks again for the wheels bro! It was nice meeting you!!

 

I dont see any rub marks on the UCA, sorry if I misunderstood issue, thought you were rubbing on control arms. Looks like a lot of clearance there. Looks nice and clean, can you find any areas where it shows a rub mark?
