"from the center of the hub", not the ground.

Default One finger

At one point, my car was at 13" from hub-center to the fender lip (at it's highest point) and it was slammed - i.e., no room for my skinny finger.

13.5 inch radius could be a 26 inch diameter wheel and accompanying rubber band.

Default do you know if tristan has a vag??

i dont have his email address. i actually just installed the "race" N75 and want to data-log, since there is some debate about compatibility w/ the K04. It works fine for me- a few extra psi, feels strong... but i'd really like to see some hard data before decide to keep it. Maybe i could sweet-talk him to come out and play..
