Proper FITMENT
Proper FITMENT

I agree...I wish more people thought out their ride height related to their wheel size related to their wheel width related to the tire size related to the offsets, etc. It all has to work together. Even ugly wheel stanced right look sooo much better. I would almost venture to say a correctly stanced ugly wheel looks better then a non thought out nicer wheel.
Ah, excellent thread.
17x9 on 215/45, 17x10.5 on 225/45
I don't even remember the offsets anymore
These pics were before I got the front stanced properly.
I tuck 40 series up front now

Well man, what you like is pointless to him. He likes to rock stretched tires and whatever, you don't. Sure it's the internet and your opinion is your own but honestly, give your opnion and when he doesn't agree with it, leave. It's that easy. No need to justify to him why you don't agree with him....waste of keystrokes.Originally Posted by blacknightteg
I like both schools of though. I love the stretched tire look, but I like to be able to drive my car. That's why fitment is king......like the thread was named.

being slammed does not always equal proper fitment.Originally Posted by blacknightteg

damn... i need to go lower and get a smaller tire so i can run some 5mm's
this sad little setup is
18x8 all around
+38 -25mm = +13 F
+26 -15mm = +11 R
all on 235/45/18s
ideally i should have some 215/40s but this'll suffice i suppose until i get ballin
I have no idea how though.....it puzzles meOriginally Posted by Captain-Obvious™

i agree. even for show VERY impractical. but thats the lifestyle i guess.Originally Posted by Terror
but thus far Logan is the only one the contributed a real example of fitment. when cars a bagged to negative camber hell it kinda defeats the purpose of having proper fitment. so far the white y33 is the only one that seems close to fitted properly at ride height.
get some spacers and you'd be a King like Logan too!Originally Posted by Captain-Obvious™

i need some pics...
16x8 0 offset

17x9 +17 all around with 235/40 bfg's. Stock metal with only the inner lips banged in. This setup was on my daily for a long time, and though the front needs to come down a little, I like it.

I have some... I can't run any bigger without extended studs. And I don't need them in the back anymore, I raised it up. What I really need is a damn camber kit.Originally Posted by Dirty Octopus™
