Alberta Stingers Check In

[lucif3r]

If you want to confirm, call a local glass shop, and tell them you want a price on replacing a Stinger windshield. As a result of doing that, I added glass coverage to my initial Stinger insurance policy before I picked up the car. The policy was only a few weeks in duration as I wanted to synchronize my renewal dates.

I don't recall how much that short term extra glass coverage cost, I'm thinking around 20 dollars. Regardless, it was money well spent - the replacement windshield I had installed shortly thereafter, courtesy of a flying rock on the highway, was right around $1800.

Oh, I have glass coverage for sure. Have had it since I owned my benz, which had an all glass roof. Its a must in AB.
Just seems that $2000 is very extreme.

Nice looking wheels! What size and offset did you go with?

 

[Clearly Canadian]

Nice, toss them on.

As soon as the lows are above zero and no snow in the forecast.

Next week? Am waiting for good weather to get mine nano coated.

I transferred the staggered tires onto square 19x8.5 rims with an offset of +32.

The location of the air nozzle is interesting on these rims. The dealer tested the wheel and realized that a different/rare type is required for the wheels.

Are our summer rims staggered? I havent seen mine yet, they've been at the dealership the whole time cuz I bought my stinger in November.

Hmm, so if I bought square'd rims would the tires fit no problem?

Yup that's what I did.

Yes you can move the factory tires to a square rim setup on problem it's just a bit of stretch fit on the fronts with you go with 8.5"

Exactly. The other difference will be how much the tires on the rear stick out. The stock wheels are +34 front and the rears are +46.5. So his tires will stick out 2mm more on the front and an extra 14.5mm on the rear

It doesn’t stick out too much, I added mud flaps on mine.
