Thumbs up Teaser: super aggressive, super wide, super low offsets new wheels...

Well finally after months of trying to decide on what wheels to get I found some that I am happy with. I have had my car for 4 years this November and have gone through 6 set of wheels (work/volks). I was tired of the standard size and offset and finish so decided to go with a different wheel and look for my car. I need to get my front resprayed so i know!!

AME Shallen MX
20x9.5 -8, *(4deg camber) 245.30.20 (4.5inch lip w/ bbk! )
20x10 -6, *(4.2deg camber) 265.30.20 (5.5inch lip w/ bbk! )

comments good and bad welcomed. Always a work in progress.

Steven-







credit card clearance on calipers front and back.


yes 4.5 inch lip up front w/ bbk. and dropped about 3 inches.. RUBS!!


lookit!

Steven, props my brotha. I appreciate the research it takes to get VIP fitment. Also, your stance is legit. Perfection imho. Can you post a side profile shot?

Thanks,
Ravi

car looks great but damn, i see a lot of problems that will come up. Like bad tires all the time, tires being loud, if the caliper expands under heat, the caliper will be scratched, etc.

i loved the whip with the time attacks and this is even better imo

i love a nice lip in the front to give it that aggressive mean look. stunning...

i also like that you didnt go overboard with lowering it like alot of people tend to do. perfect stance imo

Wheels are different. When I ran -4 degrees of camber in the rear, I went through a new set of Eagle F1's in 4000 miles. Even with toe set up well, on the street the insides will wear down extremely fast making the tire worthless. I dislike the overall look of the car because of the silly camber.
