Sorry, I just started looking at this thread and it is way too long so I'm sure this has been asked already but...what is the deal with the camber on the rear tires? That just looks, well, wrong. Otherwise, it is a nice looking car. Stripper pole is a bit, well, much, but whatever. So, what up with the rear tires???

It's the style..supposed to be like that..stretched tires with aggressive offsets. Excessive camber because, partly it's the style I'm going after and so that the wheels will clear the fender, even though at certain times it still doesn't, but I just ordered stiffer springs for my coilovers, about 5-6kg stiffer so that should solve the problem.

looks ok.

to each his own, i'm glad you like it.

the front looks ok but the rear is too extreme.

hope those tires are cheap.

how many sets of tires have you gone through?

be careful not to rattle out your teeth with those springs!

I was able to get my fenders pulled and flared a ton more and now I can put on a wider tire in the rear once I wear these out so it won't be as stretched. Rear needs a little more work, and fronts will be cambered more to match the rear, I just need to get some upper A arms and then throw on some 25mm spacers.
Wheels are 2" Work Varianza T1S w/step lip. 9.5 +3 in the front, 10.5 +0 in the rear. 225/35 tires all around. -2.5 camber in front, -7.5 in the rear.

Do folks laugh uncontrollably when your car rolls by?

Please, do not think this is considered "VIP"

It's just dumb.

No, but they look and stare...some smile, some give props...it's ok, you're not used to it....tell me, do people laugh at your overly large spoiler and aggressive body kit?

Fronts need to be cambered more since I'm going more aggressive (15mm spacers....originally wanted to do 25, but I don't think it'll fit and clear).

I'm on my first set right now...driven about 500 miles, slight inner wear, but I've only been with the camber like this for about 4 days..before, the camber was at -4.2.

Seeing a rolling atrocity going by at speeds met by a 3 year old on a tricycle, decorated with less taste than a lobby in Tai brothel, certainly merits a comical response. This would be nearly as bad if the car maintained its stock performance, but you've ruined it to the point of not even being able to negotiate city streets. I loved the part where you referred to your anti-swaybars like they matter with the joke you've created. Ricer see, ricer do. Brainless garbage. I bet the shop that did this to your car is still laughing at you to this day.

Riding dirtier than herpes, but harder to catch

Harder to catch by whom? A paraplegic?

Ricer? Explain how....oh let me guess, because I add on parts that don't improve performance...sorry bud, face it, many people do this with ANY car. In fact most wheels put on any vehicle usually decrease performance due it's weight. I'd really like to know what your definition of a ricer really is.

In reference to the sway bars, are you really THAT retarded? You do know that you can stiffen them correct? You do know that the purpose is supposed to keep the body from rolling from one side to another, even at low speeds, or in my case, when going up a steep driveway. So if I have minimal body shiftment and I don't angle properly, the vehicle get's stuck. Only options are to floor through it, or reverse if possible. I would think driving an Evo you would know, apparently not...why don't you return that lease //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Do you really think your response is "catchy" with your metaphors? Please.

It's a style that is popular here in So Cal and growing in other places, what part of that do you not get? Here, I guess I must help you out as well...you seem to fit in with the rest of the idiots.

Major Hellaflush! NIce as HELL!Why are the blue one's rims not as angled as yours?

Thanks, much appreciated. Once I get the front camber arms installed I'll post it on Hella Flush for approval *crossing fingers*.

As for the blue sedan ,he doesn't wanna go through what I did...no other sedan wants to, I think they prefer the aggressive look to an extent, I like it to an extreme. There was a guy in San Diego who did at first, but the amount of work involved to fit the rears is pretty crazy...pretty much custom camber and toe arms, rolling, pulling, and flaring the fenders...if I had 5mm of space, the wheel would clear.

I think the blue one is running +15 in the rear on a 19 x 10.5. Camber at -3.5.

I'm thinking about lowering the car about half an inch or so, but not until I raise the exhaust and get longer toe arms for the rear.

A bunch of ricers who meet in a Walmart parking lot must make for a great support group.

That's ricer logic. High performance folks upgrade their wheels for a reason - less weight and/or the ability to hold more rubber on the track. I can see how this is an unfamiliar concept.

I'd really like to know what your definition of a ricer really is.

Have you seen your own car?

In reference to the sway bars, are you really THAT retarded? You do know that you can stiffen them correct? You do know that the purpose is supposed to keep the body from rolling from one side to another, even at low speeds, or in my case, when going up a steep driveway.

I can't believe that you actually think that the bars are helping the joke you drive negotiate a driveway. This is one of the dumbest comments in this thread, and that's really saying something. I'm not surprised, though. Clearly, your intellectual capacity is exceeded by a garden variety potato.

So if I have minimal body shiftment and I don't angle properly, the vehicle get's stuck. Only options are to floor through it, or reverse if possible.

Your car gets stuck? Be still my heart! How can you say this and not realize that you've ruined the vehicle? All these calisthenics just to make a car less functional and look more dumb than anything else on the road.

I would think driving an Evo you would know, apparently not...

//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

why don't you return that lease //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

CT9A Evos didn't get leased.

Do you really think your response is "catchy" with your metaphors?

Am I using words with too many syllables?

Please. Since when is driving the speed limit a crime? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

I wish you wouldn't put words in my mouth. I said that you've damaged the car to the point of not being able to negotiate city streets. And, you have.

Again, if you can't answer the question I asked you, why bother responding?

I'm just here for the rice and the stimulating discourse. You see, I don't get a chance to talk to someone like you in everyday life. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

I know what VIP is. You tried emulating the style and ruined your car in the process. Worse, you're here rationalizing the process as if it's something other than itself. Clearly, you know nothing about cars and are just a little ricer trying to get some attention. I probably wouldn't have posted if you didn't assert a number of ludicrous automotive claims, like your "need" for anti-swaybars on a car that can't corner as well as a Big Wheel.

Btw, the quote in my sig, is a phrase from a song by Immortal Technique //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Who cares? You're displaying it in your sig as if your car has some guts, yet it can hardly drive down the street.

I said DEFINE ricer //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif I guess a bunch of cars that meet up that are the same model are ricers huh?

That's ricer logic. High performance folks upgrade their wheels for a reason - less weight and/or the ability to hold more rubber on the track. I can see how this is an unfamiliar concept.

Did I or did I not say MOST? Yes some people do get lighter weight wheels, but do ALL people?

I can't believe that you actually think that the bars are helping the joke you drive negotiate a driveway. This is one of the dumbest comments in this thread, and that's really saying something. I'm not surprised, though. Clearly, your intellectual capacity is exceeded by a garden variety potato.

Intellectual, hmmm..maybe you need reread what I wrote. I never stated it helps, in fact, it DOES NOT help, why? Because I GET STUCK. What part of that do you not understand?

Your car gets stuck? Be still my heart! How can you say this and not realize that you've ruined the vehicle? All these calisthenics just to make a car less functional and look more dumb than anything else on the road.

So first you don't see that having the sway bar doesn't help me out entering a driveway, then you realize that it indeed doesn't...you're not making any sense. And the car is less functional? Let's see...I turn my car on, drive to where I need to go, turn the car off. What's the purpose of a vehicle? To get from one point to the next, I think my car serves that purpose.

Am I using words with too many syllables?

Since when have I not understood what you're saying? Why do you think it's "cool" to use words that most people don't use in their vocabulary while online. It's the internet, no need to take it as seriously as life. If you think you're impressing anyone, you're wrong.

I wish you wouldn't put words in my mouth. I said that you've damaged the car to the point of not being able to negotiate city streets. And, you have.

I haven't put an words into your mouth. I'm still able to drive perfectly fine through city streets. Do you even know how the structure and condition of the roads where I live?

I'm just here for the rice and the stimulating discourse. You see, I don't get a chance to talk to someone like you in everyday life. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Explain rice, you still haven't seemed to understand that I already asked you this before, maybe a second time will accumulate your attention. BTW, that makes the two of us, don't usually associate myself with someone that can't read what I say, take that information in, and understand it altogether. My friend's dog understands when I tell it to sit, bark, roll over...you on the other hand seem to be the type that would hear that, take a sh*t, and start eating feces.

I know what VIP is. You tried emulating the style and ruined your car in the process. Worse, you're here rationalizing the process as if it's something other than itself. Clearly, you know nothing about cars and are just a little ricer trying to get some attention. I probably wouldn't have posted if you didn't assert a number of ludicrous automotive claims, like your "need" for anti-swaybars on a car that can't corner as well as a Big Wheel.

Obviously you DON'T know what VIP is...here's something to help you out.

http://www.vipstylecars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18702

You are making judgments on my excessive camber, correct? So explain to me how the cars in the above thread are considered VIP or VIP styled and mine doesn't? Did I or did I not say these are "IN PROGRESS PICS".

And the sway bars were on WAY before I got this wheel setup, back when I track setup going. Might be difficult for you to comprehend that, but I had 19" Forged Rays, Ohlins coilovers, etc...if you don't think a G sedan can be tracked, there's already a couple out there, one particularly in Arizona. I really don't why you don't understand what I'm talking about in relevance to the sway bars. I sit here scratching my head pondering if you have some issue with receiving information, or if you just sh*t it out.

Who cares? You're displaying it in your sig as if your car has some guts, yet it can hardly drive down the street.

Are you f*cking seroius? Who said it has to do with my car? It actually does, but the reason why I put it there is because that day my car was dirty, as in not clean, I was listening to the song, was on the forums, decided to put it in my sig. WHEN THE FUCK did I say my car has some guts? I hope people read this and realize how much of a moron you are. Seems like YOU'RE the one that's putting words into my mouth with your own assumption.
