    uh oh I think I need to retract my statement....Bj you do have a sick wheel setup! the brake setup and the offset REALLY do make your car flush as hell!

    so trigg only has front flares huh, hmm ill have to take a look at how that flows. but yeah i get what you are saying about the flares adding the need for more offset. i know that if you go all the way out to the edge of the original fender then it should gain you some more clearance. im going to cut mine nearly to the very edge so i can fit at least a 235 under her. oh and ASTIG, as far as tires go, im going to try and get some Toyo R888's or some Nitto NT-01's for the track this summer. should be sick.

    Marc, its all good bro, i just wanted to stay on your mind. lol no homo

    it's a firmer ride on about 50% setting on all fours. but turning and cornering has never been better. It feels like the car is on rails. got an alignment done today. toe was out of whack front and rear...no surprise...it looked bad just looking at it before. THe fronts are at about -1.2 and -1.4 (L/R) camber. rears at about -1.0 and -0.4 on each side. I told the guy not to mess with the rear camber, but I guess he got too excited. No biggie, It's easy to get that fixed. I also had new Moog endlinks put on. Im also still waiting for my DC sports STB.

    i'm running 225/40 tires and 18" x 8.5 wheels at the moment, and all my tires sit perfectly flush with my fenders (with the exception of the typical negative camber resulting from a 2" drop in the rear, which i plan to correct soon with some D2 coilovers anyway).

    My question is: can we fit 235 tires on our 8G as long as we just cut the rear fender enough? i mean 235's wont rub on the inside either? i really want to verify this becase i'm getting ready to buy some new tires next week and i really want to get 235's all around.

    btw: boost, you're the only person who i've seen on this site who's wheels sit just as fulsh as mine all around. good job.

    I"m running 235's with no problems, my rear fenders are rolled for now, but I only have like -1.2 camber out back, I'm gonna cut them once the weather warms up, and then I'll make it 0, and I'm dropped on coilovers. Depending on how far you wanna drop in the front, you'll have to run some negative camber if you don't have fender flares, or else you'll rub, my front fenders are rolled as well, so I only rub on huge bumps, but the front of my car is slammed almost as far as it will go.
    here's the picturesI have now, I'll go snap some more if you need.

    ^yeah but the thing about it is that i'm about 1 inch and a half lower than you in the rear, and i dont want to rub.

  18. #9198
    well, you won't rub on the inside, because when I first got the coilovers, my rear was slammed as well, I was tucking tire, but it looked stupid cuz the front's couldn't go as low, as long as your roll your fenders you should be fine if you run some negative camber, I was running about -2.3, something like that, and I didn't rub slammed in the rear with rolled fenders. ff you want to run camber corrected, you'll have to do some cutting of the lip, which is what I'm gonna do, what size wheels are you running 17's or 18's?

    yeah i definitely plan to do some cutting on my rear fender and some camber correction as well.

    i'm running 18's which are 8.5 width.
