          I was gonna say they look a little smallish. Ideally I'd want to do 15x9's with some 225/50's

            Bronze goes really well with that colour.

                Rota Grids come in that size in bronze.

                  et0 with flares should be no problemo, I was actually looking to run the et-15's in the rear atleast lol


                  Finally finished up the front suspension. Pretty much everything is new suspenion-wise front and rear. I just need to get it aligned tomorrow morning before work.

                  I have decided that I am never, ever doing suspension refreshes myself until I get a press.

                  I noticed that one of my adjustable endlinks has a significant amount of play in it. Going to have to talk to GC about it...

                  You can see the missing retainer (or whatever it is) here



                  And one with all retainers in place



                  I also installed some stainless steel lines from FCP Euro. Not too happy that it doesn't completely thread into the caliper...



                  Anyways, here she is on the ground :o

                    The brake line is supposed to be like that, the sealing portion is down in the bottom of the threaded hole so the tip needs to hit before the hex portion bottoms.

                      Also! My lip is not held on by zip ties anymore. I'm quite pleased with that.

                        Ahh, for some reason it seemed like it was sticking up a considerable amount more than stock. But that makes sense.

                            Got the front aligned today. Car feels so good. Still have to address the CSB and guibo and the endlink. I also need to raise the rear once it stops raining... like wtf this is Colorado, not Seattle.

                                That is a lot of play in that bearing. There shouldn't be enough for you to detect it. Call up GC and order a new bearing/rod end.

                                I'm a little surprised because GC seems to use really good quality spherical bearings compared to other camber plates/end links I've had.
