You already know my thoughts. He forgot to mention he already has coilover perches in storage.

New wheels lookin phresh ed!

If I were u I'd get some ie3s. They+drop hats will tuck tire up front for u.

Looks good. You don't want to be TOO flush, or you'll become one of those stanceworks ass-hole.

how are the streets in your area?

in my area they suck half of the time and im running race in the front with the drop hats, i think its good for a daily driver i really dont have to worry about my oil pan much

i think if you do decide to do the front ie3 or HR race and the 20mm spacers it will be dope

[e30trooper]

needs more rake!

[Supadave]

What drop hats do you have?

[robrez]

+1 on camber correction kit and spring pads. It'll cost more, but you'll make it up eventually with longer lasting tires. Hope that cowboy staring you down in the first pic didn't start any trouble...

I almost want to quote you for my new sig.......but you're right on fitment, I kinda feel the same way without running 9" wide.

The streets are much worse than the valley dude and my oil pan becomes an issue for the low front end. I'll keep reading the thread for more imput as you have already read that I have coilover perches, so I may just buy some stiff rate springs and do a light coil set up in the front.

i know huh.....

I'm going to try adding spring pads to the rear over the weekend but I'm also pretty happy on how the rear sits now with my wheel and tire combo. Like I said previously, I'll keep checking for more suggestions to make up my mind.

The cowboy thought I was a papparazzi and didn't mind the flashing lights.......



Thank you all for your advice and keep it rollin.

Keep the 8mm spacers in. I agree with (georgegraves) you car is too clean for the flush BS. And I also agree with (accident) camber kit fo sho. Otherwise ur car to me is perfect. As for the front the perches and softer spring would work considering u don't want to cut the coils.

Haha, jump on the group buy of the shirts and I promise you, I will personally make sure to put some in the package for you. Just don't tarnish thy nameth with BS. ;)

yeah i think a light coil setup in the front will be nice. and i just remembered your comment on socal about your oil pan

[schtozo]

For you to have an idea these are my setups:

1- This is with bilstein sports/ h&r sport springs and 15mm drophats stock spring pads everywhere.





2- This is with same setup but IE s3 springs . After installing them it was lowered 1/4 inch all around.







I have 6mm spacers on front and 7.5 inches wheels and they fit pretty flush.

No spacers at rear and 9 inches wheels that sit also pretty flush.

All the wheels are et20. And tires are 205/40/16 front and 215/45/16 rear

So considering that you want flush fitment for the fronts you are ok with 6 to 8mm spacers but for the rear you will need 15mm to sit like mine. Now with the 20mm you will have rub issues depending on tires.
