    i think you need a 10mm spacer on the rear. lookin good though.


    if the USDM 8g shares the same rear setup as the VR4, then hypothetically, you should be able to fit a 19x10+27 with a 235 on it easily. you would hav to run about -5 degrees camber and pump the guards

    the suspension is different between the USDM 8G and the JDM 8G, both front and rear. the USDM 8G galant is actually more closely related to the 3G eclipse than it is to the JDM galant.

    Yes. The backspacing should clear the suspension. Not sure however if -5 degrees of camber will still allow the wheel and tire combo to clear the rear knuckle and C/arm though?

    it's air ride so it's only low when it's down all the way... it's not gonna be driven around at that height all the time.

    yeah I figured as much. That would be impossible haha. Imagine going down the 405 even an inch higher than that.. holy shit that would suck

    u can still run staggered faces/offsets though right?... as long as you keep the width and tires the same? in that case you could run hi disk up front and lo disk in the rear w/ lower offset and it would "look" staggered but your 4WD would not know the difference since the tires and wheel widths would be the same front and rear.

  15. #255
    yeah your right, but to that id need to fork out a lot of cash...cash i dont hav lol


    some custom 3PC wheels would be awesome

    we're goin a bit OT lol, back to ricky's 8G

    G-spot's old side skirt I presume? And that bumper could actually work pretty well with this theme (IMO)
