fender liner's are still there. i only rolled the fenders and quarter panels a little bit to fit the vs-xx's. haven't made any cutting.

anybody slammed on 15's?

I searched through most of the thread but didnt see anything.
I found some pretty rare, old school, wheels that I might purchase as dailies but was just curious what 15's would look like on a 2nd gen

The one's I just posted are 15's... not slammed exactly. Fitdeez was on some 15's recently and I would consider him slammed.

Does anyone have some good pics of the t1r s-coils installed with 205/40/17's?

I think i'm finally gonna go for the plunge but i'm worried because i really don't wanna roll/pull/cut etc and the front 2 wheels on mine are already nice and flush which looks nice but im still gonna leave the rears without spacers because i load my bass gear in the back and i need the fender room for that.

thoughts? thanks

misFit - your car looks pretty awsome with the stance and the kit...how careful do you have to be with the Mugen lip inches from the pavement?!
Loving the stock wheels to!

I need advice:

I have +40 offset 205/40/17 the fronts poke about a 1/2" which i like and I want to get 20mm spacers for the rear to match eventually.

I really want to lower on springs(not enough cash for coils - maybe in a year ill do it)

I like the t1r s-coils but im worried about rubbing and i dont want to roll/pull or make camber adjustments

Does anyone have the same wheel size setup that is dropped on t1r's that has pics and doesn't rub???

Thanks in advance guys!
