These wheels are becoming quite popular lately....
Looking good!
I love the look of my 205/50s azenis on mine.

[scotterson]

Any rubbing issues?

[Wh33lhop]

Nice man, looks great and I dig your choice in tires. What's your suspension setup and alignment?

[T3rd Ferguson]

i have alpine bumpers for sale. shipping would rape you though.

[HarryPotter]

sick wheels dude.

[Balleristic31]

Any rubbing issues?

I think that was directed to me.. haha and no ive had zero rubbing issues thus far.

[TexasTerp]

nice! they're a good kind of different! keep it up!

Any rubbing issues?

the rear rubs on very large bumps/dips with fully rolled rear fenders. I'm sure the spacers are not helping the cause...;)

I'm lovin' these tires, dude!!! Suspension wise I have GC 440/650 spring kit with e30 Bilstein Sport front inserts (with trimmed bumpstops) and mz3 Bilstein Sport shocks in the rear(much firmer than the OTS e30 Billy Sports) . I also have Treehouse CAB's. My alignment is basically stock as I don't have camber plates yet. We have our own alignment rack, so I can't wait to play around with alignment settings once I get the adjustable camber plates!! Do you have specs that you like for aggressive street?

I've only done one alignment so far, I like it but it's far from perfect (way too much rear camber/toe). 2 degrees of camber and zero toe up front has served me pretty well but I'd prefer a little more camber in the future; in terms of caster, on a street car you want to max out the right and give it a little less (I've heard about .3 degrees less is optimal) on the left to account for the pull of the crown of the road.

Here are the final specs I was able to get (next time I'd probably go for a little more camber in the front, I'd go for 2.5 degrees of camber up front and if I get adjustable rear stuff, probably about 1.8 degrees in the rear, and I'd try zero toe all around):

Front (left right)
Camber: -1.9 -2.0
Caster: 10.1 10.2
Toe: 0.00 0.00

Rear (left right)
Camber: -2.9 -2.7
Toe: 0.14 0.15

How's the body roll with those rates and tires?

Hows the tire wear with the neg. camber?

Nice, yea that was actually directed to OP as well but both of your inputs help.

[Wh33lhop]

In the rear? Well let's say I wasn't exactly nice to those. The fronts definitely had some camber wear, I rotated a few times but all in all those Azenis did not last all that long :p I'd dial a shitload of camber out of the rear if I could.

It's funny how everyone has these wheels yet they still remain super awesome. Awesome. haha Nice car! Would look great with some rear flaps.

I would imagine you tire wear is from not having enough positive toe-in. I believe these car want to be slightly toed-in in the front also. Camber does not wear tires, excessive toe-in/out does!!! Your rear camber really isn't that bad.

The body roll dropped dramatically with these shorter side walled tires! Not that it was bad before but the car feels much more settled mid-corner.

Cheers!!

I am having trouble deciding on 7's or 8's. I have 205/55 that are in good shape but not sure in the would look good on 8's. Can you take a close up picture of the lip and tire? Thanks
