While we are on the subject of offset balls, have you guys had problems achieving the same amount of toe in/out with them ? If I am not mistaken the tick marks for the left and right side are always set to the opposite of each other. So, it the left offset ball's tick mark points to the left, the right offset ball's tick points to the right. This is how they should be setup right ?


Also, if I am using offset balls all around to increase the width of the car, which way should the offset ball tick marks point (both left and right side)?

Nope I just polished the Offset one's
It took me about 10 mins to buff them out.. and I did not touch the Black ones

Default parts for a R1

Does anyone know where I can get some parts for a R1. I know it's old but I need to get it back together. Any info would be great.

I know you and Jimmy proberly have discussed this on PM, but looking at the pic. I see a R2 front tower and a R3 rear tower that has been drilled out and had the lower body mount hole removed.

Guess one can not compare those directly

How is the durability of the tower after drilling those extra holes ?
