Invest in some stiffer shocks, atleast up front and you should be all set then.

you're not rubbing because you're dumped, but because your wheels are +38 offset.

Probably not. I think the plan is for like the 29th. We had a place to stay down there. But the guy with the place might be flakin so we'll see in the next week or so whats up.


And i plan to Roll and pull the fenders so as to help combat the rubbingness. And depending on what happens within the next few months. Either i'm buying another vehicle to pimp and keep the fit as a daily or taking the fit to the extremes. Dumpt or bust.

are you joking? i can't tell haha. but if you're being serious, you're going the wrong way. you want to get a higher offset, not a lower one. stock is +55. so you want to get closer to that if you want to eliminate rubbing on the outside.

Driving down there isn't the problem. Its the lodging thats a bitch. A few of the texas guys myself and my brother were gonna drive down something like 4 or 5 fits. Just to come hang out and crash the party. It would be hard to find a place to stay for cheap.

Oh i know. If i could do 55 and still have awesome lip i would. But my goals are conflicting. Low and Lip just don't seem to mix lol.

Just for the record and Adam can't explain things well. He's trying to get wheels to get more flush and will roll his fenders etc. He's not trying to get a higher offset to fix it. His tech was a retard about his rear toe and they don't move so it wouldn't be that off.

Orlando, I'm getting details tonight to see if some of us are going or not. It will be after the BBQ week. If that's cool with the Orlando Fits
