Get the Invos

[Superman09]

looking like i will have to. The guy offered the solution but has not responded back after numerous e-mails. I sent him a final one just a minute ago stating i will need to hear from him before noon tomorrow or i will have to file a complaint with ebay and paypal so i can order new tires. The car is un-driveable now and with winter approaching FAST, i need tires ASAP!

damn, sorry to hear it jonny. hope everything works out. did it get lowered yet?

[Virtue]

how do you plan to lower it? ive heard you can lower a vette for cheap but was just curious what they actually do

Vette's use bolts to lower them. Longer the bolt the lower it goes.

Why do you need tires for the vette, Jonny? That's not the DD is it?

The ones he got off Ebay have holes in them and are now flat.

[Superman09]

yea, need tires to drive a car Brian, lmao. I need them ASAP so i can enjoy the car with what little decent weather we have left.

Vettes lower by simple lowering the bolt in the suspension. The factory suspension allows for up to a 1" drop roughly, so thats free. I purchased long front and rear bolts allowing me to do almost as nasty low as i want. I'm going to dial it in pretty nice and mean I can't lower it until i can drive the car over to my friends with the lift. Hopefully the day or day after i get the new tires on. Still havent heard from the guy!

[MP81]

You messaged him about the tires?

[Superman09]

yes, multiple times and he has yet to respond..

[Superman09]

ugh, well i told the guy i needed to hear from him by noon his time today. I waited until 5pm and no response so i filed a complaint with paypal. Bummer i have to hassle with this. Anyways, getting a price on the same tires, Bridgestone Potenza's tomorrow along with the Nitto Invo's and will be placing an order. I should be up and running by the weekend! FWIW, the Nitto Invo prices in at $322 a tire and the Potenza at roughly $350. Ouch!
