Lol. Eventually I'll go wide body, but I'd rather spend that 10k (body work plus paint) towards paying off the car. Shoot I'd be done paying off the car with that amount. When I do go widebody, time to through some 13's in the rear, and I don't mean wheel size //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif

"Herra Frush" made me laugh the most. Who was it that said that? Let's try to beat that this time around.

Are you serious? So are you sayin that the people that formed the term hella flush don't know what they're talking about? Being flush has to do with having aggressive offsets and having proper fitment. You're NOT going to get an aggressive or low offset without stretching tires and without adding negative camber, it's just impossible.

I disagree with that. Yes, you DO need negative camber. But you don't need massive amounts to have fitment and proper stance without overdoing it.

For example, my car:

17x9 ET+24 w/ 225/45/17. 2 degrees in the front, non-adjustable 1.2 degrees in the rear (solid beam multi-link). Rolled fenders.

Do I rub? Of course, but nothing to ***** about.

Nice...the actual amount of negative camber varies though. I have a 0 offset on a 10.5...ahh...rubbing, I wish I still did that, but unfortunately it's my tires that I wish did that, not my wheels //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

What are your spring rates? I am running 8/9kg front and rear and its still not stiff enough but I don't rub that much. Granted, I'm not that low.
My coilovers are maxed out though (JIC FLT-TAR VIP). Wish I could be another half an inch lower.

Yes, I'm saying that.

Proper fitment ... You are crackin' me up!

Wow, maxed out? I'm surprised they don't go lower.

My spring rates are 12/10ish kg front and rear. I say 10ish since it's a true coilover setup and most coilovers on my car incorporate the spring bucket. Once I get the chance I'm swapping out the rears for some 14-15 ish spring rates.

Then you must not know what you're talking about. You do know that both the VIP and hella flush style will require some negative camber, some more than others, just depends on how aggressive you want to go. Do me a favor and visit http://www.hellaflush.com and tell me how many cars you see with their wheels having oem spec camber. Till then, try not to make yourself look like a fool. Just because you don't understand the style or don't like it, doesn't mean it's not right //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
