OZYWALKER XR50T Gold Donating Members 2,795 Member For: 12y 1m 17d Gender: Male Location: Western Sydney Posted 08/03/17 12:56 AM Author Share Posted 08/03/17 12:56 AM So I've decided I want wider rears, which means wider front to keep it reasonable balanced. Plan is to have it sorted by AFD in July.As the pan hard bar causes a fair bit of lateral movement I'm lowering it again and fitting stiffer front and rear springs. Specifically a 12kg front and a 7 kg rear spring. Shockworks standard fg coil over spring is a 9kg and the 5 link currently has a 300lb/in tapered, equivalent to a 3.5kg (tapered) to 5kg main spring.This is the cheapest option rather than having the rear end modified again, as nice as a watts linkage setup would be I can't justify any more rear end expenses unless its a diff rebuild. Wheels will be rota grid variants with 18x10 fronts and 18x12 rears, 285/35r18 and 335/30r18 respectively. Tyres will likely be nitro nt555 front and nt555r rear as they have matching tread patterns and apparently last a decent while on the street. The front and rear guards will need rolling. Aside from this its a matter of getting the correct offsets which are available off the shelf with rotas and also fitting a modified set of upper control arm brackets to add a few degrees of negative camber. Thanks to Nelsonian101 for the tips on fitting the 285s up front.The only issue is to go black or silver with the wheels?

Also I'm gonna have to get rid of the under drive kit at some point as the steering already gets heavy at low rpm. Fun job that one.
