Fitment looks good. I think he's going to wish he went with different tire sizes. The front doesnt even look driveable.

Wow the only way to fit that under the fenders is to completely flatten/roll the inside fenders, remove the liners, and/or cut the fenders and liners... crazy work!

We'll have to wait and see how the final results look though.

yeah true, im surprised he went with race springs and NO shocks, hell have to deal with that super soon otherwise he will rub his tires raw

i do love that he went for the flush look with heavy offsets, shows balls and its different

Hey guys!!


yah im fairly new to the site and havent properly introduced myself.

I'm usually a lurker and just try to find good deals in the classified section or post some of my mods for sale.

anyways, someone pointed out that I didnt replace the shocks...you do have a point because they'll blow sooner or later but I was actually aiming for KW V2s but just couldnt come up with the cash in time for MFEST this april 16th so the race springs dropped almost as low.

and I did get beefy tires for the height which is why im looking for 30 sidewalls in the front and 25 in the rear...or maybe go with a 235/35/20 front and 275/30 rear.

I have a lot of work to do but with the new job I started this week hopefully mods will come in much faster than the past 6 months.


thanks for all the comments

if you have any questions feel free to PM me

Surprisingly, I've seen some really aggressive stances in person and the car owners all say they don't rub. But when you look at it and feel between the tire and fender all that goes on in my head is ????how on earth does it not rub????.

But I recently dropped my car this past weekend and you can only stick a key width between my tire and fender and somehow I don't rub. Miraculous it is, I'm not going to question it as long as it works .
