airlift performance c30

[distorto]

i finally feel like i have a setup worthy of posting.

thanks to czarlos for selling me the wheels!

these were originally 18x8.5 et 29 and 18x11 et 60

the 11's required 30mm bolton spacers to clear my shocks and they stuck out in a silly manner. the 11 would have looked terrible and didn't really serve any positive purpose.

i ended up building them to be a squarish setup. used aftermarket barrels for two of them so they are slightly different in the front.

current specs:

18x8.25ish et29 215/35/18 - front
18x8.5 et29 215/35/18 - rear

suspension is a full airlift performance system and the only modification was maxing out the front camber plates.

my car was the test car for the mazda kit on the volvo platform.

plus, there's a 2 pic minimum...sooo...don't feel like you have to just do THAT. I mean, if you wanna throw up like 12 or 13 pics, I'm cool with that.

ive been building her for a couple of years...there has been a lot of headaches and hurdles, but its been so worth it.

ive driven across country for h2oi, from houston to ocean city and just recently to the tail of the dragon.

one broken oil pan, three broken axles, a couple three hour tows home...shes been a handful!

one custom, handbuilt bag setup and then being the airlift guinea pig and its been a pleasure working with them.

6 different combinations of wheels.





volvo venator 18x8




in candy gold - my favorite out of all of them - the paint flaked though so now they are stripped



moda r6 19x8


volvo canopus - seafoam green 17x7 - these are the wheels the vehicle has been known for

Sweet Volvo, but would look even cleaner without the stickers and europlate in my opinion.
