hooray for some nice offset choice! there will be members here hating on your camber though saying your car will drive horrible-although its a wee bit more than i would run but nice nonetheless

+1. beautiful wheels, offsets could have been less aggressive. How often are you planning on replacing those tires?

Well, I have to agree that the Camber is more than I wanted run.....but, this set was to see how extreme we can go with these cars. We have an awesome platform to work with and I decided it was time to push the limits even further than before. It was a tough decision when purchasing these knowing that I might have to do some extreme modification to the front suspension. The only way to even fit the front wheels was to go extreme in the camber.....-4.5 currently....the wheels of course did not fit the OEM bremos, so I had to use a 25mm spacer just to give me a little bit over 1mm of clearance. Either way...If i had to do it again, I would probably would not. Next time ill just get a disk that fits the big brakes, but then again.....Im getting the new G.....so Im done for now....next project please!

I don't hate stretched tires if it's done within reason, but offset is just ridiculous when taken to these extents. Personally, I think once you get that crazy with offsets it starts to look like a poorly set up civic with chopped springs.

There's good offset, then offset that's overdone. I mean, big wheels, low offset/clearance looks nice, but save the camber for the rides with airbags. At least do it right with some flared fenders or a widebody.

I personally think the rears on this car look fine, the fronts just ruin it for me. Just my opinion, of course.

I dont like fender flares nor do I like wide body. Whats the challenge in any of that. Your entitled to your opinion and thats perfectly fine. Im not sayin its everyones cup of tea, but sometimes there has to be a kink in the sameness of things....wheels...drop....kits ect....the normality is not for me. I like to be different and try new things. Of course pictures dont do any justice for this set up...in person its a whole new ball game!
