QUALITAY!
Ahh nice simple build.

LoL wow I need to go home and play some Super NES, Ken Griffey Baseball brings back memories!

It looks like it's just pressed in crooked and it would straighten out once you tighten it down, however the studs do look very low quality.

I remember having the 4x100 to 4x114 15mm ebay spacers when I had 96 spec ITR wheels, when I went to remove the studs from the spacers to use them on my 4x100 weds, all the studs had been deformed. They where leaning to the side like a lame *****... I was lucky they didn't brake loose on the track, those were very sketchy.
Yeah, the hardware looks like junk. The studs could be strong enough but just not nice looking, they look like someone cut 'em off w/ a chop saw opposed to having the normal end on the threads. And those nuts suck, they are supposed to be lock nuts of some form or another.

I'm guessing the hole is just a bit large for the stud and it's in there crooked, like you said, it'd probably straighten out. For light use I wouldn't hesitate, but for track or tons of daily driving it might not be the best way to go. I don't think many people have 'em yet so getting a good review on durability is gonna be tough...

Yeah, you were the one who bought them on g2ic, right? So your set is ruined now? I wonder if it'd be worth it to buy a set of these just for the aluminum. Buy the hardware separately and I already have ES bushings.

Funny story. NASA Honda Challenge actually changed their rules after we had done that. Technically, according to the rules at the time, H4 cars are completely free in the suspension and tire department without going over a 16" rim and changing suspension mounting locations. After they found out we stuffed 245s under there, they changed the rules to say: No tire bigger than 225 in H4! lol. So now, H4 cars can't go bigger than 225s and we moved on to H2 with a built b20z and 245s.

yeai bought them, i was gonna use them on my konis, but they didnt fit, the strut rod thing was too fat. So i ended up using them on my skunk pro s

my car is barely driven so i was surprised to see that the bushings had started to crack/fall apart

the problem with the hardware was that it stripped on itself and then it would just spin when i tried taking them off. i figured out that the bolt was not secured right to the tophat, so it just spun. it would probably work better with oem hardware, and some tack welds to keep it from spinning

im just gonna get my stock top hats extended or see if ground control can make me custom sized ones

^Ah yes, cheap metal has the tendency to do that. Colin I take back what I said, it wouldn't be worth it. Even if you press in your own hardware the cheap aluminum used for the actual top hat could strip aswell. The stud will just spin like what happend to Leo.

Yeah, that makes sense about the stud stripping the aluminum, I hadn't considered that. And welding wouldn't be an option since the top hat is aluminum and the stud would be steel.

Car looks good Suren, can't wait to see your progress!

If they're not 15/16x7 I can't use them since I want to run 225/45 series tires. The 16x7s are an option but the tires will be $100 more per tire every time I need tires. Too much for a grassroots guy like me.
