Damn I never knew. I always wondered how and why you got the fit. lol Sorry about your loss, but good buy with the fit

Hopefully we can get dancar to make plates for the GE too! I need me some 3 degrees! I'm also thinking that we might need a spacer when doing camber because it looks like the inner fenders wells are kind of small. I'll take some pics and measurements soon.

Yeah the wells are smaller than the xB. one guy is running 16x8 16x9 +20ish(??) no camber and they stick out a little bit not much.

They make a camber kit in Japan for the GD I think there may be one for the GE just have to look. K-Factory makes the GD one. That's what I have

16x9 + 20 is decent. about 1.5" worth of wheel poke is my limit... but that's a super stretch, camber, pull, possibly bagged fitment already.

God dammit I need some suspension. Maybe I should just quit messing around and order the air ride tomorrow.

You have excellent taste in wheels my friend. Work S1s are one of my all time favorite wheels.

Mugen make a mirror cover for the GD.
You can get a Mugen sticker and place it on there if you want to look the same as the GE

We were looking at the car yesterday, and everyone thinks I should do 17" RS. Do you have 2" lips on yours now? What are the specs>
