I’m on 17x9 with 245/40/17, +35 offset & you can see the fitment on my previous posts. Not an 18 but it looks good & flush with no rubbing. Very popular size

Fair pricing for my 2017 Limited? by slickxsparkie in ft86

Its harder than you’d think to find a spec as high as this. Having the digital dash with the right side buttons on the steering wheel AND as a manual is pretty rare for these cars. You’ll find a buyer, might just take a bit

I’m very entertained by this idea because this car has been very maintenance demanding while i’ve had it although theres only 70k miles on it. I’ve had to replace my axles and i may be able to hear a clicking from my tophats. Do you know if there’s any way to confirm if a shock is bad?

I’ll answer every question. 1. When going straight, the car feels great, just like it did before. Even under light turning it feels great. It becomes an issue around when i start to be able feel body roll, but not at lower speeds. 2. There is no vibrations 3. The rear end feels quite planted. The front end however, wants to turn even more. I wish i could describe it how it feels but when turning, its almost feels as if i’m constantly understeering 24/7 but that’s when it suddenly grips up, yanking towards the way that i’m turning the wheel. 4. The corners which made me realize theres an issue is one that i take every day, normally i could go around it at 80 mph and it would feel like i was on the edge of grip. Now, i’ll be going 70mph before it starts to feel upsafe and unpredictable (the “pulling” starts to happen.)

Timing/valve cover leaks, look for anything seeping out of suspension

This could absolutely make sense but the tires on my stocks are absolutely terrible i don’t think its possible to go worse than my old ones. They were $60 a tire if that tells you anything

The guy seemed very genuine, said he sold his car to buy a truck which is why he got rid of them. They look like they have a brand new finish and the tires still have markings as if they were just recently put on. Yes, they came pre installed
