^^ Honda HFP sport wheels- 16x6.5 with a +55 offset. No rubbing...That goes without saying. I'm still rockin' the stock Dunlop tires which are not as bad asI thought around town and I'm pushing them really hard in the corners. Tire upgrade will be next once the budget allows for it!

ok guys I understand about all the springs and everything. I had a gd3 about a year ago and I lowered it on DF210's. It was low and I liked it and everything, but... I wana slam the GE8 I have now. I know that sounds like a ricey thing to do and I know what the bad things that happen when you tuck tire/rim, but its a DD. I have the race car in the garage and I just wana slam the fit.

So the question is what can I do to slam my fit lower than anyone in this thread so far without cutting any springs. I thought about DF210's and a 15" rims. But I still dont think that is low as I want it. I dont care to buy a true full coilover for it.

thanks,
Humpty

HFP wheels + T1R s-coils.... I think it would look quite sharp on CBP.

Is this a serious question Considering you have a "race car" I have to believe I am safely assuming you know more than the least amount of knowledge when it comes to tuning cars. Saying that, you should know the answer........

25mm is about .98 inches.

all these specs for RS*R's just seem so wrong.
people who have them have a lower drop. i don't get it.
we are missing something here.

the original specs i posted was taken from RSR's website. But judging by the photos and what others that have RSR posted, obviously there's a difference. I adjusted the RSR Ti2000 specs to what another owner posted as it seems more realistic than what RSR Japan posted
