lol you will need bigger spacers than that. I've run fatter tires with lower offsets and still wasn't as aggressive as these guys. Try like 30mm spacers all around instead

^^^LOL. That was some major negative camber that we had to do to just to test out how much the Zeals dropped in the back. The fenders were actually sitting on the tire, which is why we were glad that we maxed out the negative camber in the rear at the time. However, I did get the fenders rolled and got the alignment setup.

-4 FR and -3.5 RR. I'll definitely run some spacers although the TE are +12 all around. Can't wait for the custom Work Wheels to come in and the new paint job with body kit. The car will probably be sitting on the ground since this is lower than my old setup and my kit then used to only sit 1 inch off the ground

They are made by Battleversion. Definitely the best stuff on the market as far as I have seen. Easy to adjust alignment as well.

I have a basic visual in my head, but like most of my ideas...it typically changes slightly as the actual work date approaches. It's going to be fun because the car is going to ship to Japan for all of the work. I'll save all of the details on all of that stuff for the future. I'll definitely post up as things progress. I think this is going to be a great experience and something special.

Royal_T - I agree man, black on black looks badass. What sizes are you running? What color car are those going on?

With the Work's I'm looking at ordering, I'll be at about a 3.6" lip front and 5.25" rear.

then why do you plan on stretching tires narrower than stock on your wheels. You won't need to with 15mm spacers. You can still fit a 285 in the rear with a 9.5+7

Love those battleversion links, I still have to place an order in for some. Maybe I'll make that a B-Day present.

And man I can't wait to see the car all finished, shipping to Japan to get work done, Just Ballin

Thanks! The paint should look really sick since they still utilize lead based paints. Over here in hippie California, we use the water based stuff. Thanks for the good wishes.

Yeah, I love the battleversion stuff. Really strong and great concept for gearheads who like wrenching on their cars with an easy adjustment. Let me know if you ever need some. I typically will have a spare set for track use.

I can't wait either. It will suck not being able to drive it for a while, but it's okay. I'll see the car in Japan as well so
