fender to ground?
Not entirely sure, but it's not all that low. Maybe 24.5".
I'm on konis with 3 threads up front (my basement garage wont let me go any lower without tearing my lip off), and rears have the perches taken out.
what happens if you drive around without hub rings?
Branding in the face, actual 2 piece wheel, and the fact that I'm eating Kraft dinner for the rest of the month lol.:wink:
If you also look closely (not in these pics) but the bolts are also branded BBS.
Not to say that some LM reps I've seen don't look good. It's quite the opposite, some of them look absolutely amazing, but at the end of the day I personally prefer the real thing.
You get what you pay for so you may as well make it look right. I've had BBS CO's before, and have hit some horrific potholes where I've had to pull over and check for damage, to which I found none. So since then, I've sworn to go nothing less than BBS as they make one hell of an incredible looking and sturdy wheel. That and I can't afford DPE's or iForged ><
what happens if you drive around without hub rings?
It causes a lot of vibration due to the wheels not sitting 100% flush against the hub. Moreso due to the size of the centerbore where there is less contact from wheel to hub.
Essentially it shakes like an epileptic crack whore shooting up with dildo needles while doing the harlem shake in a room full of strobe lights.
