YO Whats UP,
I live in town and I will try to see if I can make it to the next cruz. How about spacers? Did you have to put on spacers to get that flush look? I have some 16x7 rims that I ran on my Mini but I had to run spacers. Just wondering if I run those rims, I would have to run spacers. Thanks for the reply!

 

never need to run spacer w/ the dr16.

 

This is a quick pic of mine. Got them from hopupracing too. Seemed like good guys to me.

 

That as low as they go, Illmatic?

 

no thats not as low as they go..im runnng 16 in wheels like he is and my fronts and back are tucking

 

Cool. I might have just been swayed and found what my tax return is going towards this year.

 

I have the backs as low as they go but the fronts could go lower. I'm rubbing my fender liners like crazy. Rvall004 did you have to do any work to be that low? Any pics?

 

Are you running any camber kit man?

What was the camber reading when you got your alignment done?

 

I haven't got my alignment done yet. I know I know but I figured they may need to settle a little first. Thats what they told my wife when she took her WRX in right after she got her springs. And I am really only rubbing bad when I had a ton of groceries in the back. But no camber kit. These are camber adjustable in the front. What is a recomended camber degree?

 

Fender liner mod, and you still havent painted your damn calipers.
Could have done it while the coils were going in.

 

I know they need painted bad. What is this fender liner mod you speak of? Do tell.

 

Remove the upper fender clips and plastic inserts. (3 I believe?)
Leave the lower ones in, the ones by the sideskirt and on the skirt.

Push the fender lining up and over/past the inner metal fender lip. Itll make a pop sound.
Thats it. Save the clips in case you want to put it back.

While youre there the metal tabs that held the plastic inserts bend them somewhat flat with your fingers. Somewhat easy.

 

I did the fender lining thing as ray said but i also have camber in the front

 

^^^^That sounds simple enough. Rvall004 i still want to see a pic of your car and compare it to mine if you got one.

 

here I washed her today and some pics for u illmatic...






and soon to come

 

JEEBUS.. All these horrible unpainted calipers!

 

when i get the new wheels on i will paint them

 

They should have been painted during the coil install.

Damn Rvall004 car looks great. Thanks for the pics. I may try to go a little lower after I work on the fender lining. I'm having a little trouble with the sway bay making noise. I need some updated pics soon too!
