Leveling lift Question

[BBlyman]

I have decided I want 18x9 wheels when I put my leveling kit in (lorenzo or kore). What I wanted to know is if 325/60/18 will fit with the leveling kit? Its hard to find 33's or 35's in 18's.

yes they will fit a buddy of mine has them on his 04. 5 with no problem.

I would not purchase the kore system again if it was myself. Worse purchase by far I have put on my truck.

Why do you say this? The Kore Chase is what I was planning to get for my truck...

 

[BBlyman]

Yea, why not Kore? What problem did you encounter? I'm looking at Lorenzo or Kore right now.

Well since the kore chase install the back passenger side of the truck sits 1 inch lower. I have a terrible sqeeking noise in the front drivers side when comming to a stop... . possible all the time but hard to hear over my stacks. The thing that bothers me the most is the truck drives a perfect straight line unless you apply throttle, the it pushes to the left (not a little I mean enough you have to counter steer) and when you let off it comes right back to a straight line. I have took it to three different alignment shops to make sure everything is good and its perfect everytime. Also it rides worse on the pavement then it did before the install. Yes it did help with the rear wheel hop and looks alot better sitting level but other than that I would not put this on my truck if I could do it over. If someone really wants a kore system buy me a different setup and I will trade you for it!!!! And help you install and swap everything.

Did you pick up their steering stabilizer too? You may want to put the stocker back on. I've had more than one client swap back to the OEM stabilizer and it cured the bump steer you described.

Yes I did put on their stabilizer. I had to drop it down to about 50lbs so it would not push left on its own and drive a straight line. I will try the stocker again and see what happens. But it really feels as if its caused by the rear end when the torque is there.

Goosing it will lighten the front end. Picture a drag car and how the weight transfers to the wheelie bar. Off the line the front end comes up and there is less friction keeping the front tires straight.



The single nitrogen charged shock you have strapped to the steering, extends under the weight transfer, pushing the tires to left and voala... . the truck drifts to the left under acceleration.



50psi isn’t so great for your stabalizer per FOX’s recommendation. Pressure helps the seals do their job. 150-200 psi is closer the correct psi per Fox.



Fox shocks are quality units. You may need a little revalve on all four corners to make them feel the way you'd like. If you’re willing to put in a little elbow grease I can help you out.

I have the KORE chase system and absolutely love my one ton porsche!!! Maybe your system just needs some tweeking? Good luck!

very hard to find 18" tires in E rating . They are going to stick out so plan on some flares. It is a nice look though.

 

[TheBigSgt]

I have the BDS pucks in my truck. Like them!

 

[BBlyman]

nriver: probably 18x9 eagle alloy or extreme alloy... . still looking at options.

Sent a pm last week.

I have the KORE Chase system and it is great. If there is a problem, surely it can be discovered and solved.
