GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

I should say, my daughters Vibe. her first car We picked it up last week. It's very nice with 36k on it. We've spent the last week cleaning it from top to bottom. It looks brand new ! not counting a few rock chips. waiting on the local dealer to get the touch up paint in. I have swapped out the front door speakers, installed an '03 Matrix rear bumper guard. Painted the front calipers red w/silver brackets, black rear drums. 19"x8.5" ADR wheels w/245-35-19 Kumho's are going on tomorrow. Borla cat back is on order along with rk sport carbon fiber top rack covers.GREAT site! I've learned a lot all ready.Stay Tuned! Wheel/tire pics posted. Scroll down.

welcome to GVC. I'm sure your daughter will love the car. great car, especially if it's her first!

Welcome to Gen Vibe! Wow, your daughter is lucky--her first car beats the hell out of mine--1985 Buick Century! Tell her to take good care of it!

Awesome. It took me years to get mine where it is now and you've got hers blazin' already I have 18" ADR Cyphers on mine and I love them. They were discontinued and I wanted them really bad and I just happened to find a set on ebay brand new! My luck normally doesn't run like that but I'm not complaining Lets see the wheels when you get them on I'm also assuming she is into cars if you have all these plans for hers? If so that is wonderful! It's hard to find girls that are into cars, around here at least so the more that are out there the better.

Welcome to Genvibe! Very lucky daughter.

nice vibe...looks great..welcome to the best forums

Here are a couple wheel/tire pics! 19" x 8.5" ADR Cypher w/ 245-35-19 Kumho's

Sweet looking Vibe! Nice wheels. Now it needs to be lowered.

That's too funny that you got Cyphers too! Our cars are like opposites. You have silver car, mines black, you have dark wheels, mine are silver, I have silver grills yours are black, that's exciting:

^^Where did you get that hood? ^^ That's sweet!Yeah, Lowering is on the "TO DO" list

JSP America made it. They still sell them too I found out when I finally got it replaced with a new one (the old one didn't have UV protection on it and got really sun spotted and hazy). New one's holding up great though. I asked them when I called and they said they do still make them for the Vibe if you're interested. I think they are a little less than $500 shipped. The number for them is on this site floating around somewhere, I lost it.When considering lowering springs, I have the Tein S-Techs on my car. I installed a set on my friend Leah's Vibe as well at the beginning of the year and she loves them. It's approx. a 2.3" drop all around. It handles amazing and I'm not sure where you live but here in Michigan we have had some pretty intense winters with a lot of snow and it drives fine in the snow too. Not sure how they would fit with 19's though that's the only thing. Here is a picture of both our cars with the S-Techs on:BTW, that's an awesome looking Vette you got there from what little I can see. Are those BBS wheels? Also, that's not a Callaway 'Vette is it? My mom's boyfriend has a couple of those Callaway C7 Vettes on order. They should have been in already. He said they were coming in the same time as his Bugatti Veyron. The Veyron is here finally but the C7s are not.

I'm going to check out that hood. A 2"+ drop might be too much, the 245/19s are about an inch taller than stock. I'm looking at the 1.8" drop Eibach Sportlines. My toy is an '03 Z06. The wheels are HRE 540R's. 18"/19"s

Ahhh ha, HRE, I forgot about that company. I really wanted a set of HRE's for my Vibe but I didn't have that much money lol Sorry for posting pictures in your thread but I figured you might be interested in seeing the drop and all that. I'll take them down now that you've seen them though.Perhaps you can send me some pictures of your Vette? I looove ZO6s. Or if you have a Cardomain for it. If not, my email addy is dyingstar@email.com or my AIM screen name is RollinVibe.

Welcome to the family and THANK YOU! for sharing your pics with us

Post all the pics you want!!

The rk sport rack covers are here, they are taking a bit of trimming to fit. I got the tracking # for the Borla cat back. It should be here on Wed.Stay tuned for the install pics.
