If a car is driven 10years all year round I 100% guaranty you that it will be rusted all to sh!t on the under body! No way around it there is going to be more rust issues then with a car that was only summer (april or may till november) driven.

In 10 years your car will be worth 10k,what was achieved by not driving the crap out of it,50K to 10K...but only driven on nice days :)

Very much doubt that, my friend's kid still has my 90 RX-7 GXL with 280K miles on it. I drove that through seven winters. Also going by your math, basically most cars older than 2002 are rustbox? Maybe you guys get super salt that we don't get here

Spacers helped A LOT.

What size spacers? 20mm I'm guessing? Front and rear or just rear?

Drex	11-22-2012 11:45 PM

25mm rear only

Cool thanks! And just curious cause I went with a different wheel, but were those 40mm offset as well?

Damn that looks good! You could've probably picked up some 09-12 Sport Rays and made those your winter wheels as well.

The Rays wouldn't really make any sense as winter wheels. 19" snows are expensive and 9 and 10" are going to be wider than you'd want for a winter tire.

Thanks! They're sitting in the garage, haven't put them on the car yet cause I wanna take some summer wheel pics this weekend first. I'm prolly gonna black out the center cap so there's no brand name on them. :tup:
