Most aggressive stance with sport rims

wh1te370z · 02-22-2011, 04:43 PM

So im looking to do something aggressive with the sport rims. Wondering who else has done something like this. looking to do spacers and just springs for now. Saving up to do a really nice susp next year. Im trying to pay off the car aggressivly, so not looking to spend 3k on wheels and anothe 2 on susp. Any ideas and/or pics?

Plenty of examples if you do a search.

Magnetic Black + H&R Springs + 20mm / 25mm Ichiba spacers

Here you go - La Bruja 32mm spacers all around and its pretty low considering its on springs.

^He also runs some pretty serious negative camber, too much for a DD in my opinion.

Yup. I think a camber kit is in order.

3 degrees is serious camber? Can you elobarate on how that's too much for a DD, thanks.

The 25mm in the back looks perfect. However, doesn't anything larger than a 15mm in the front scrape the fender or wheel well somehow on hard turns?

I would like to go 20mm up front but I'd rather not have to deal with scraping/rubbing.

Depends on what your definition of a DDer is, I guess.

If you've got a long highway commute, you're gonna be wearing only half your tires.

^I agree, that is why. Also, that much negative camber negatively impacts handling performance as well because there is simply less contact patch between the tires and the road.

I am talking in context of a DD in my opinion as well as from what I have seen, I don't mean to criticize you PCH so please don't be offended.

You can pay to have the rims widened

that would be good if the face of the rim was flush but do it to our rims wouldnt do much for flushness. just add more tire.
