do you have any rear shots? that is one crazy ___ camber.

yea the seal between the barrel and face started leaking air. I have -.5 degrees up front


is this a normal occurence with stretched tires and negative camber?

the fitment of the rears on the front looks sick!!!

haha thanks.. i'll take that as a compliment! lol :D

MORE TO COME!! not just eurolines... :P

lol ya

Ben do you have a link to the place where you got the camber kit at? I want to get one for my set up and run maybe -3 or -4 in the rear :)

is this a normal occurence with stretched tires and negative camber?

No, this only happens with wheels that are either 2 or 3 piece. If you have a one piece wheel, you don't have to worry about those things.

i have more shots, but they're on my girlfriend's computer.. i'll post them as soon as i get them from her..

checho: i got the camber kit from blizzard.. lol sorry. i actually ordered them, and then he PM'ed me then i cancelled the order so i wouldn't be spending an extra $100.. lol

the site that i WAS going to get them from is
http://www.2kracing.com/Product/69496.html

I know this is a TC section. But there isn't a thread for this on the xB. I tried to get my stance as aggressive as possible.

http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/5019/imagehandlerashxu.jpg

needs more low.

Sorry, but I've seen WAY better setups on B's. You can go so much more aggressive than that.

you can get the hotchkis rear cambers cheaper at trdsparks. theres where i got mine.

hmm damn another 200 bux! :P

i gotta see if I can get rid of that heathen Supercharger...then might have some nice ballin N/A plans :D

/my thread jack

busy yesterday, making a deposit today.. actually.. right now.. :D

How much negative rear camber does everyone need? I know that when I dropped my car on hotchkis my rear camber was around -2.2 before I aligned it. I bet I could have made it more negative too haha. Now that I am on coils, I am sure I could go even further than that!

I just purchased the ingall's front camber bolt set, 2 for each side, so I will be able to add -2 degrees of camber up front. Doing all of this to fit my RPF1's. Figured I would get her ready while I am waiting on money for tires.

Lol i feel that a -3 is good enough for my set up, IIRC Blizzard was running -4 on his Advans

I may have to do more, but hopefully I can get my fenders rolled for cheap, that will certainly help with clearance.

i remember for fun i had -4.4 when i had my GTPs on and i DEF didnt need that, but i slammed teh car and it looked killer.

should've kept your car that way.. slammed. w/ demon camber. ftw :D

cambers the 5hit son! the more the merrier lol

lol i wish i did too, but i couldnt lol my tires where dead and i didnt wanna risk anything, but with my next set of wheels the camber will be set again :evil:

bump for camber

wow

O M G. that's what i want. You got a PM bro!

wow

x2

as far as tires go for that kind of camber, would you buy cheap tires and risk blowing them out or spend more for expensive tires? decisions decisions..:icon_juggle:

lol seriously.. decisions decisions.. and i'll take those "wow" statements as compliments..

no one believed me on serious camber.. so i had to post that one..

here's more.. don't hate on me cuz i got bigger wheels in the back though. no money for tires in the front..

the last picture is when i had 2 tires mounted on the front and rear. 1 front 1 rear

^ rear looks a little high, but i think its just the angle. sexy! what kind of wheels are those?

the wheels are work eurolines.....what are the specs on those wheels?

looks awesome BLK!!!

A-F*cking-mazing!!!!!!!!!!:clap::clap:

lol thanks all! the rear is high only because they're on 18's...

also, the specs are 18x8.5 et25 and 18x8.5 et20 :D

Damn, those look dope mang. Hell yeah!!!
Sick ___ size! [:

http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r69/shinjitai1438/_DSC0841.jpg

how much camber u runnin bro?

not sure, but i would say around -6 or -5. I can go more positive and have lots of room to work with.

that's crazy! cant wait to see them all on the car.

dont like it

props for being slammed with that setup, but you need wider tires to get nicer stretch. The wheels look aggressive and flush, but the tires dont. The tires need to come all the way out to the fender to the point where the sidewall will rub. right now youre hella tucked, but not hella flush.

notice the dull area of rubbed tire above "SPORT" on the sidewall
http://kristopher.derentz.com/gallery/d/10177-1/black_knight_rolling-1789.jpg

I have too much sidewall to be hellaflush lolz, looks real aggressive though. Pics after fender rolling this Saturday.

oh trust me i rub... almost 24/7

hks: with his candy painted rims :p, thats the kind of set up mine should be when i get my new wheels

Jaewrek, nice rims!

What's up with your hood?

Jaewrek, nice rims!

What's up with your hood?

Heh everyone asks that. I just propped it with some spacers for aesthetic purposes.

Heh everyone asks that. I just propped it with some spacers for aesthetic purposes.

wouldnt that actually be for function... its not a trend mod even though its treated as such

Hm..
I've never seen that before.
Interesting..

he has hood spacers.. it ventilates the hot air out of the engine.

and i gotta x2 with pete said.. too many people have them.. they're just played out.. but i like the fitment.

I'm with hkspeed.. The stretch would look really good and necessary if the wheels poked more.

Bump.........More pics

i saw the side shot you took (xxxx65) haha.. looks str8.. something is off... but looks good!

What might that be? Lol i know the fronts are high. The rear had luggage. Its no even done yet and I Have so much more work to do. so when i'm officially done it should be good, i hope. I will definitely lower it even more.

you crazy. with a setup like that I wouldnt put in anything past the rear seats.

Haha I actually i dont rub badly at all even with people or anything in the back. Had to pick up a friend from the airport and i only rubbed on really harsh dips or bumps. Other than that, i barely rub at all.

just for shietz n giggles

i was wondering why he wasnt posted in here..

I don't think he's on SL much, but regardless, I've got mad respect for him for pushing the envelope, I want to step my game up, but I'm trying to save for car #2, so my setup will have to do for now =P

that looks awesome....just a tad bit lower in the front and it would be perfect.

omg so sick. so many people stepping their game up. I'm lovin it.

Enkei Rpf1's in 17x8 +35
25mm up front
None in the back (waiting on another set of 25mm's)
Bridgestone Re01r's in 225/45
Lugnuts are open ended Buddy Clubs in Chrome

These are the only two shots the photographer sent me, I'm waiting on a front profile shot to show that they stick out but the camber flushes them in perfectly.

And yes, I rub like crazy. =)

wait wait are we talking about the sc3 with vs-xx on it? he's selling his car?! wtf... i'll take his IACV and wing.....

yes matt. my friend mike wants to get an s2.. LMAO.. just like you. haha

but whatever you want, let me know and i'll let him know.

ZOOOMMGGG HE GET S2k GOODNESS?! if he gets a 04-05 or any year in lbp goddamn i'm gonna stalk him.
and wendysorbust, iuno how you're running tires as sqare as friggin re01r with that kinda offset/spacers.

RPF1's FTMFW.

Lol we me either. The 8" rim only did a very (very) slight stretch on them and before mounting I was afraid they wouldn't even clear the fenders. But once I sat the car down the -2.2 degrees of camber helped it sit flush and since I'm also running 4.5 degrees of caster I imagine that helps out slightly too while turning.

Aren't you running the Dan Garnder edition Rpf1's on Star specs? If so I think I've seen your car and it sits mean. But I won't be replacing the Re01r's with another extreeme summer tire either, I'll probably be doing S-Drives or Spt's in 225 or maybe a 235/40. No more auto x for me :cry:

RPF1's FTMFW.

thx mang, I got a super sick deal on them too

^ Are you on Honda-Tech by any chance? I thought I saw your avatar next to a post when I was scrolling down a page, but I didn't go back to see. lol

lol go for it.. i'll tell you where he lives. haha

is that a "Wendys only" front lip?

haha basically

Its actually the NIA front slpitter lip. I'm on my 2nd one which is the updated model with the added end plates.

looks pretty clean, idk how i glanced away from those beautiful wheels?

I am on Dan G's with 255 Nitto NT05's. Real nice tire! My stock wheels will be for winter so I don't care if I have an extreme summer tire on my RPF1's.

Haha I don't know either. I was originally trying to go with some enkei nto3m's in 17x9.5 +38 but going 5x114 and then trying to get my camber dialed in and getting a good tire to make it look and fit right would of ran me over 2k.

Nice, nice. Do you auto x or do any club racing? I did 2 years on my car and 1/2 year on these tires and I absolutely love the Bridgestones. They are such a fantastic tire with outstanding thread ware. They've already outlasted my set of 615's and grip 3x better in the wet and dry. Sadly due to the high cost of keeping the car "track ready" and trying to pay bills and school I have retired the car from auto'xing. After the Stones wear out I'll be going with something that works all year round and just keep the car as a clean daily.

:|

im lovin ALOT of the tcs in this thread so nice. Poked or flush alot of nice work in here.
Im tryin to hop on board with the aggressive stance savin up for some 18x9.5 wheels but im undecided what size tires to get. 215s or 225s :ponder:

215's..

depends a lot on how aggressive the offset is..

the wheel offsets only 25

what rims if you dont mind me askin?
that should be sick.

is it practical to have that aggressive stance on a daily driver?

probably not, kinda like having a llama as a second source of transportation...in NYC

Guess!

I really have no idea. Took them off my friend's widebody. He's on here somewhere.

These are pretty agressive, IMO. They're also for sale. ;)

specs..? tbh, i don't see much aggressive-ness. might be your ride height and/or lighting

Nice. Yeah I eventually want to get the car into something like Time attack, but I want to be boosted before hand and earliest I could do it would be next year. I have thought about auto x too, but think I would be in a high class with the mods I have and I wouldn't have enough power to compete haha.

those wheels look like an 18x8 +35 or +30 or 8.5 +35

rear pics please...or head on...

those wheels look like an 18x8 +35 or +30 or 8.5 +35

18x7.5 +32 soon to be +27

are those the volks?

So I have a question for you wheel gurus. What size spacer should I get for the rears with rims size 18x7.5 +42?

I am not a big time wheel guy I just put on what looks good or what will fit the right size slicks. Looking to make the rears flush like the fronts.

whats your front offset? Comparing your setup to mine (Dan Gardner's 17x8.5 +30 offset), you would need to be at +17 to have the wheel equally as pushed out as mine. All of this is according to the wheel offset calculator.

bodykit is being pushed forward by my intercooler. Also can't roll fiberglass fenders. So same rims same specs but they are already rubbing like mad. Gonna switch to m3 front and carbon fenders. Then I will space the fronts or get new rims. Ty for your help turbocharged

are those the volks?


Yup

no pics of them on the car.. sorry dude.. but from my calculations, they're pretty damn flush..

Yup

they look great man. keep em

crazy if all goes well, i'll be picking up the m3 front too... what are the odds lol

I'm thinking I might keep them Dave lol. It's just that I found some cr kais 18x9 +28. That would be flushness without spacers lol. Idk well see, I want to push out the rear more so I'm getting a 25mm for the rear and the front will have the 15's. I'll be at +32 front and +22 rear.

saw this on wrong fitment crew.
this guy no only flared out the rear but spaced out the front fender. Never thought about that. You can use washers and longer bolts in the same way people space/gap their hoods.

god i would seriously consider a legacy... even more after seeing that^^^

i should be posting up my wheels here soon, just ordered tires :nails:

Wow thats pretty creative. Not trying to bite, but i might try that... It would even out my fronts to make them look as wide as the rears. :ponder:

i need a napkin.

18x9.5 +35F/+30R Rota Torques -1.1*F/-2*R
245/35/18 Yokohama S-drives

yes? no? lower? lol

I like the way it is, a bunch of people are going to tell you to go lower lol

it looks good how it is but another 1/2" or so wouldnt hurt. lol

is there a good amount of thread left to go lower?

i have 6 threads on the front, and like 10 or 12 on the rear. tomorrow im going to take the wheels off and start trimming more of the bumper, and mount so that i can go lower without rubbing too bad. i already rub over every major bump on the freeway right now

lower and more stretch for looks.

Yeh on one side of my rear bumper it is poping out from rubbing on my tire and i already trimed part of that lip.

function>form imo.

what coilovers are you on rimporter?

racelands

you got rid of your Volks for a set of Rotas?

you got rid of your Volks for a set of Rotas?

That's what I was thinking... :question:

Needed the money so I traded someone these wheels plus a good amount of cash for my volks.

I'm not a big fan of a lot of stretch. I'm happy with the tire size now and am not going to get a smaller tire just for "looks"

Trimming more pieces today so that I can stop rubbing and take out some of the neg camber

Good cause It looked better without the neg camber.

i think you should leave it.. it's fine right now...

just drop it a bit more.. don't screw with the camber..

Front 19x8.5 et30 tires 225/35/19 Rear 19x9.5 et40 tires 235/35/19...what do you guys think add 15mm or 10mm to the rear and maybe 10mm for the front??

http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n76/dqlostsoulz/IMG_0156.jpg

15mm all around.. :D

really all around...wont that be a lil too much for the fronts?

15 would be epic, that is too much imo

You think? I am actually leaning towards 15mm for the rear.

15mm in back more camber...10mm in the front

You think? I am actually leaning towards 15mm for the rear.

meant 15 would be too much for the front but back that would be good, would knock the offset down +25. Would look good with some camber.

15mm in back more camber...10mm in the front

Thats what I was thinking. Do you think I would need a front camber bolt and rear camber links?

meant 15 would be too much for the front but back that would be good, would knock the offset down +25. Would look good with some camber.

Yup, how hard is it to adjust the camber in the rear?

Not hard but I'd say have a shop do it. Don't forget that if you have a wider track on the rear than the front the car will understeer more than it already does. If anything go with an even spacer all around

Cant I just dial in the camber than take it to a shop for an alignment? I read your thread on clubtC about adjusting the rear camber.

well if you are going to get a shop to do an alignment mine as well get them to do it. That is part of an alignment, just ask around and find a shop that will do it.

True, but its hard finding a good shop that deals with cars like that here in the valley.

yea after my last incident with a shop i will probably be shelling out more money to go to ptuning for an alignment and stuff.

what happened? I just got an alignment a few weeks ago and they scratched up my rims. And another shop (les schwab) was trying to tell me i needed a a camber link for the rear..I was like no my ride isnt even slammed! And when I got my alignment they pretty much put it back to oem specs and now I rub more so I might take it back.

I went to firestone, the place i went before and they did a good job. Well this time they put a few scratches on my rims but i didnt care since they are the stockies and i am getting ready to paint them. But like a week later i was doing an oil change and I noticed like deep scratches along the side on the side skirts where they probably ran up on the lift too fast. You can see them really when the car is down but i know they are there, and it knocked the plastic piece next to the side skirt loose so a part of it hangs down now.

That sux...thats how I am when I know its there even though you cant see it, but i know its there and it irritates me

omg.. do it for the fronts.. don't let these people decide for you.. lmao

buy two camber bolts for the front (comes in a pair so buy 2 sets).. 2 on each side.

camber that isht in.. and run 19x8.5 +15 and 19x9.5 +25

good fitment right there..

lol..so I would replace the two front bolts on either side with the camber bolts? And what about the rear would I need a camber link?

///offset achieved\\\

18x8.5 et25 front
18x8.5 et20 rears
is that aggressive enough?

yes and what did you get?

nothing yet :(
planning on getting them by jan gotta get b&g coils first

noooo!
buy my works!
haha

i need more aggressive :D
im sure subi people would love high offset wheels

How is your "offset acheived" if you haven't gotten anything yet, your just planning.

i meant for the person above me o.O

i feel ya. going to rock the racelands for a little bit then saving up for bg coilovers.

help here fellas. i want flush, but i dont want ANY POKE whatsoever. id rather it tuck in and space it out as needed then have it close to stick out passed the fender. i dont want the tire out passed the fender either.

so, 18x9 +38 or +28? w/ 245 or 255 tires.

my math tells me +38, tire should be flush up front, 5 or 10mm spacer in the rear

255 tires O.O
you are going to have to some serious fender work

when i order mine i'm going pretty aggressive IMO...18x10 et25 or et20 up front and et15 or et20 rear.

what about 18x9.5 et25 front/18x10 et20 rears

A lot of work will be needed to fit those. Especially if you go with a meaty tire. And if you don't go with a meaty tire then there's no point in going with a wheel that wide. I'm at 9.5" +35 with 245/35 tire. Had to do a lot of cutting

And neg camber. A lot of it. IMO won't be functional anymore

i would run 225 tires in the front and 235 tires in the rear
i like the stretched look over meaty

Function>form.

It won't go in without a lot of work still and neg camber

I've got a 225/35 on a 10 inch rim +35 and both the tire and rim are poking out a bit in the front.

And how much do you rub? How low are you? And how much work was put into rolling, cutting things?

That's my point. It's doable. But it's a lot of work AND some people (IMO) cannot pull it off.

it can be done, that one guy did 275/35/18 on 9.5" rotas, he rolled the fenders, and did some cutting. His camber was set around 2 degrees front and rear.

But he wasn't low lol.

jaewrek is dumped btw haha

yea see im going to be on TRD springs until i can afford some SS-Ps. i think i could run 18x9 +38 without much work at all. 245/35/18s. then ofcourse, roll and pull once i get ss-p's

Function>form.

It won't go in without a lot of work still and neg camber

i do agree with function>form but i dont track my car at all. Its just my DD and i like the stretched tire look and some neg camber as well.

exactly. if i was to track it, i wouldnt go with 10inch wide wheels on a tc...

i just want it to have a sick lip :P

when it comes to function and form, i lean to the form catagory

ill give you a fat lip :icon_twisted:

:facelpam: sid....lol

i want mine somewhat like riboflavin's set up
Work VS-XX (XG) 18x10 +23 (effective) all around 3inch lip/F 3.5inch lip/R wrapped in 225/35/18 ss-595's.http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q244/riboflavin0514/DSCN1718.jpg

SICK

x2!!!!!!!!!! I wish my professors were 17x9's...not 8's.

just send them to me then lol :P

i may sell them soon...they have been sitting in my closet :(

oooOoOo how much you want for them dude? lmk you got my #

IMO the hellaflush crap is gonna fade out soon, well its not crap but its pretty played out

dont matter to me...i will still run it. i love how it looks, not doing it because its a fad. sunk in wheels look silly to me. yeah im running stockies now but that's because im saving for better more aggressive wheels.

i think the perfect spec to go with would be 18x9 et 35

^ this. i think ima keep my 17x8 +46 and space em out a little. dont need hellaflush but moar flush would sure be nice. +25mm, 20 or 15 outback? and upfront?

just get better wheels anyway. step your game up :)

my last name aint baller son! i just bought a house! lol. just dropped $1200 on Paradigm surround sound and gonna be another bit on a privacy fence. If I do anything that expensive to my car its gonna be SS-P's and some better tires. Would like a little more flush though. Maybe 30mm out back and something to make it even up front, or wtfever. need helppp lol

hahahaha i feel ya.

I think this is a good amount of poke for the front.
18x10 +35 with a 225/35 0*

I just wish I could get the rear to look similar.
18x10 +35 225/40 -4* and I still smell burnt tire whenever I drive.

I'm thinking more stretch in the back (run 225/35 all around) so that will hopefully give me the clearance to camber the rear back out with less rub.

What do you guys think?

show the rear please? have your tried cutting or rolling more?
