(DON'T MIND THE GAP... i'm taking it in for alignment.. and i need to lower the car more. but you get the jist of it..)









note:Bolts >> Zipties for front bumper attachment.. oh well. needed something quick n dirty


NOTE: yes. i did paint the mesh black...



front offset with meaty tires will have have ample clearance with the front suspension


and rear coil-over'd suspension (Zeal):


Front Caliper Clearance:






rear clearance




WHY i need an alignment:
front


rear newly installed battle version Toe Arms and Zeal rear coilovers

What is your review on those tires? They look like they can grip really well.

Sweet looking set up Cheston! Judging from the gap, it looks like your car is gonna be scraping the ground.

yea. lower with camber will make the offset look much better than it looks now.

the rear tires i went with aren't the most ideal, but it was what toyo had in stock for R888s.. and since these are my trackonly wheels. i guess thats fine.

maybe if i get bored with my TE37s and want to roll on the RE30s on the street, i'll swap to better sized rears.

yes. looks like i'll be hugging the ground soon..
