Re: Looking for pictures of Vipers with Forgeline VR1\'s ..
Casey,
Just wondering what you mean by wasting HP when you go with 19s? Are you talking about weight or gearing ratios or something else?
Re: Total Weight of Corsa and 19\" Purners
Russ,
My car had the factory wheels/tires that came on a 2000 GTS. (Rear: 335/30/18 and Front: 275/35/18) I weighed both sets as a complete wheel/tire with a scale that was good to a 1/2 lb. I talked to the guy from CCW and he said that since the...
Total Weight of Corsa and 19\" Purners
Since I had some time before installing my new wheels/tires and Corsa exhaust with R/T HiFlow Cats, I decided to weigh everything so I could compare it to the factory items. Here is what I can up with:
3" Corsa Stainless Steel Catback Exhaust: 67 lbs...
Does anyone have the Viper stickers for the Purner center caps from JonB? If so, can you please post a closeup picture of them on the car? I want to see them before buying a set for my wheels.
Re: 20
Steve,
Partsrack has them listed for $4500 with rubber on their website:
http://partsrack.com/
Click on Wheels and Tires. Scroll down to 19" Purners. Click on "Get More Information".
You will have to call JonB about shipping (approx. $135) and if you want to go with a bigger tire...
Re: 20
I had a quote for $7500 for the Startechs with shipping. They were too heavy and the cost was more than I wanted to pay for dubs. The 16-Spoke Purners look almost the same and are much lighter/cheaper.
Freddy,
Here are a couple of pics of my 3" Corsa setup. I just had them installed this week, so I cannot give you a fair assessment of the dust factor. (The rear bumber was dirty before changing the exhaust and I am still waiting on my latest shipment from Zano)
I measured 4" from the...
Re: 16-Spoke 19
Long Island,
I bought them through JonB at PartsRack. He had the best price out of everyone I called, including CCW. I have the Michelin Pilot Sports with 345/30s on the back and 285/30s on the front. I had to specifically ask for the 285s, as JonB normally sells the 275/30s...
16-Spoke 19\" Purners (Pics)
I just figured out how to post images, so I thought I would post a few more pictures of my new Wheels and Tires. The fit and finish of the Purners is excellent and the ride is beautiful. I went with 345s in the back and 285s in the front. I also added 3.55 gears...

I bought the new 19" 16-Spoke Purners, instead. They were cheaper and a lot lighter...
I was told by several of the dealers who sell the 19" Purners that 295/30s will most likely rub in the front and the overall center of gravity will be higher for the car. I would have prefered them over the 285s, but I did not want to have any problems at high speeds or when driving around...
I just purchased a set of 19" Purners. For the rears, the only choice in Pilots is 345/30s. For the fronts, you can get 275/30s or 285/30s. Everybody I asked said the 295/30s would not work for the front. I went with the 285s, for a slightly taller front tire.
Even with the 285s, there is...
It sounds like anywhere from $1200 up to as much as $2500, depending on the vendor and what gets replaced.
Is there any reason/advantage in changing the whole differential? I have a low mileage car and I was planning to just swap the gear to keep more of it original.
I am considering a gear change to 3.55 or 3.45 and I have read a lot of threads concerning the benefits of each, but I could not find any reference to total price. Now, I am looking for an estimated price range for the complete job. (Parts and Labor) I would appeciate any feed back from those...
I am looking for a recommendation of a good Viper Tech in NW Houston. I was using Carlos Smith at NW Dodge, but he no longer works there and I have not been able to locate his new place of employment. Any recommendations in the Houston area would be considered.
Re: \'Interesting\' Viper on eBay
I do not like the paint either, but I am partial to all black. I am also wondering why their are no pictures of the "checkered flag" side of the car????
I wanted to thank everyone for their help. I placed my order with JonB today and I went with the Smooth Tubes, K&N Filters, Corsa and R/T Hi-Flow Cats. I also added the new 16-Spoke 19" Purners from the "great looks" department. :cool...
I like the OEM cover because it has the name and snake logo embroidered on the front. It keeps me from having to show people what is really under it...
