    Not sure at this point. I used M3 cabs and the front end sits higher than with the other cut off springs that the PO installed. Everything else on the front end are new OEM parts. Both front tires stick out a little more than I would like which I think is because of the ET13 I ended up with after I installed the 2" lips.

    It just looks strange for some reason, as if there is quite a lot of positive camber. I'm running the same exact wheel size up front (15x8), and 205/50/15 Falken 512s (whose fit is identical to the 912s I've been told).

    My front wheels are flush with the fenders:

    Also, why does that front right wheel look so wonky?

    ooof.

    Fantastic job on refinishing, but that is a bad gold. What most people don't know is that Duplicolor Gold is a 95% match to BBS gold when combined with a matte clearcoat.

    My offering... just got these 2 days ago. No tires yet or pics mounted though. Style 5's 17x8 and 17x9 filled and redrilled to 4x100. Should fill the fenders out nicely I think :D


    I envy you, I missed out on those, trying to build my own right now...oh and I was just in Charleston the last two days, would have loved to see these in person.

    C'mon, someone has to have .5" lips on all four corners? I love the dish but some really nice 16" .5" lipped RS' look amazing. Daddy needs a new wall paper, damnit.
