Haha well, my point was, I wanted to see who had the most aggro setup and do 15-20mm more aggressive than that. The guy whose building my works drives the most fitted MR2 in the world, he runs 18x12.5 NON-widebody, insane. Apparently he really likes my car and wants me to "kill the game" next season haha. So we'll see I guess. My rears would be 18x11.5 +4

on a side note, i went to formula drift irwindale this weekend and guess who approached me while i was driving in?!? MAD MIKE!!!! made my day :D :D :D he gave me a speedhunters' feature this' sticker, but i don't think speedhunters ACTUALLY wanted to feature my car because it's stock as fuuuuuu, so i just kept the sticker for laughs xD
Cool story bro...

...no seriously.

Haha, we both win. I beat you on front fitment by 3mm, you beat me on rear fitment by 2mm. Pretty close

That was the guy who had the 240 flares bolted on the back, right?

So jealous of all you Cali guys, sigh. But yeah Equips are sick, great choice.
I think you should put the stock shrouds back on though, those INGs shrouds look weird without sides.
Also, slammed stock white 8 without tints... very reminiscent of Tilt's old car! maybe replacing him? haha just get like 8 more sets of wheels.

Love the wheels

I think you need to swap back the stock shrouds and add rear mud flaps.

You don't need to take those flaps off, but maybe just a new driveway.

I wouldn't know about aero concerns. For some reason my car came with leather, navi, and the spoiler but was naked around the bottom. Damn impulse buy.

I used to have the front mud flaps and they scraped on everything I still have them along with the side and rear flares in a box in my garage.

I'm still so jealous of your lip. Did you import it from japan? I was going to buy one until I realized it was like $1500 shipped and I have to wait 4 months for it.
