    I concur. If you're referring to lowering it more, don't. Looks great how it sits. Later, QD.

    I don't get it. Maybe if you had a pic at the same angle with before/after. And what did you do? Later, QD.

    befor the center of the wheel was in front of the lip to make it fit but they tuck a lil under the fender as you can see here



    today i took the rim apart and put the center behind the lip makeing the lip (poke) is a lil out side of the fender as u can see here



    so what i am asking is do u like the tuck look or the poke look. get it?

    i think it might just need a little bit of camber to make it fit into the wheel well, but still can be made to look better. id keep it that way and make them fit

    tis DEFINETELY do-able. if you wanna rock a smaller tire that'll be cool. but if you go a tad lower in the front you should be fine.

    Gotcha now, lolol. My bad. I like them both, myself. Are the back wheels also poked out? If so, ride on it and see how you like it and how it rides and how the tires might handle it. Later, QD.

    It looks great either way. But why not go lower.

    Car looks great in last pic.

    If it is H&R Coilover I would worry that spring rate is not high enough and you will hit fender. Will need more stretch for sure though.

    Like the new look. Like everyone else said lower it with some negative camber with a little tuck.

    Couple questions:

    - Wheels look like 18x8.5, correct?
    - Same size all around?
    - Same offset all around?

    Fronts look good with the new setup, plus gives you more exposed lip. However, IMO it needs 205s up front. To pull that stance of up front the rears need to have a little MORE poke than the front (again in my personal opinion) and given that the rear fenders are already more aggressive than the fronts, you need some spacers for the rears, or maybe hit up image for some larger lips, run 9s or maybe even 9.5s in the rear with the same offset, they will sit 6 and 12mm more aggressive respectively, which based on the pictures you car can easily handle.

    So, new look up front with some 205s, 1'' larger lips in the rear, keep the 215s on there. Stance achieved

    The front is a 8.5 and rear is a 9.5 I have a 7mm spacer for the rear. I'm looking for a used 205/40 right now don't want to buy tires that don't fit

    Damn Torre, you need to quit lowering that offset before I come show you up in my next project Mustang.

    I haven't seen your car on 369 in a while. Are you doing well?
