Even tho theyre pretty narrow i still wanted the aggressive/flush look so for the time being i spaced em out. These past couple days ive wanted to take some more pics(side profile) but its been rainy...so if it dries up tommorrow ill post some more pics of the FAILBOAT....if its ok with u thread guardian

He doesn't rub (the corner lights anyway) because he is running stock wheels. Wheel fitment is not magic and if people don't like your look what do you care?

Keep in mind exposed lip is what you're really after, unless your faces are sandwich or reverse mounted. These should be 4.5" lips with about 4.3" exposed

mmm sandwich.
And no my faces aren't reverse mounted. It is a 3 piece wheels so I'm relipping them. Should be a 5" lip in the rear I believe and 4.5" in front. Are these weds polished or chrome lips?
Damn they're so sexy. VIP + Rx8 done right.

yeh im not worried about that dude...you're gonna run n to those pple everywhere in life..anyways thanks for the compliment and to answer your question i had to do a lil bit of dremeling. actually those arent the stock wheels just some temps i got from a friend. They came of his 350z and i think they're the 35th anniversary wheels. He gave em to me for practically nothin, so i got em powdercoated for the time being and i think they actually look pretty kool for wut they are. Even though theyre the same width as the stock rims in the front width a slightly lower offset i have em pushed out pretty far and did have to roll my fenders and shave a few things to get em to fit, being as low as i am and making room for some much wider wheels once i save up enough change.

@ Rotard - thanks man. my aim has always been to simply keep it simple n' clean


@ Sifu - lol...yeah man, it's been hell tryin' to keep this lil' bulldozer lip off the ground lately. Which is kinda funny because thanks to Izzy, I've gained more motivation to change up my look for next season...new front w/probably less ground clearance

I managed to go the whole season without trashing my mint blue front end which sits 1.5" off the ground...
Until the drive back after the show I took first place Mazda, hit bad construction and smashed the passenger side lolol. Glad it was the season closer.
And Izzy, "max camber" isn't quite descriptive because the max changes depending on height. With my new control arms I can go to -7 at my height (which I hope I never have to do). Haha :D
I'm guessing with that size and offset you're around -6 though?

yes night driving is the worst. the caravan was nothing compared to my recent trip to nor cal at night. All of my luggage, my uncles wife, and a kid in the back seat were devastation and uncomfortable for seven and a half hours.
