So now the 5zigens are on 503. I cambered the front in using Ingalls camber bolts and did a quick self alignment to fix the toe in afterward. Looks pretty decent, IMO.

Please tell me you use that rack and it's not just for looks /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

There doesn't appear to be much snow on the ground. Wheels look epic by the way. I need to step up my game to get both my VR4s looking as good as yours now! One is lagging sadly behind!

My local ski hill still has a base of 114" at the lodge and 208" at the summit, so the ski rack stays on. They don't stop spinning lifts until after 5/6/2012. And even after that I can tour/skin since there is so much snow in the mountains. I should probably keep the snow tires on just in case, but I was excited to see how the 5zigens would look. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I Like it. those wheels make that car look alot better. its funny how wheels do that to a car. Do you daily drive that car or does it sit in the garage?

I'm just yanking your chain Mark. I saw your post in David's thread here and I just couldn't resist making the comment. I know David pretty well. He and his two brothers have dropped in and had dinner/drinks numerous times whilst in Hong Kong. All three have or have had numerous VR4s during their lives, Stephen is currently building up David's old car. I think that rack will get plenty of use knowing those guys.

This is a picture of David with my son last summer,



and another of him trying out my police bike /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

Quoting GSX_TC:

Daily drive is a relative term. I drive a company van for work during the week, so I don't use it to commute. It is used for after work hours to run errands, get groceries, etc, as well as for skiing. And my girlfriend is doing clinical rotations for med school 3hrs away, so it makes the drive to see her once every couple of weekends. It definitely gets used.

This was just a couple of months ago:






And Paul, I know you were just yanking my chain. I guess I should use m0ar smileys next time. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif
