my buddy and i decided to go shoot our cars that are all cleaned up for the summer. sorry i know my plate is gross, but i went to go remove it for the shoot and it wasnt pretty under there. i recently got these xxr's they're 17x9.75 +25 all around. enjoy

Love those rims on your car man

spencer_homer

thanks man! i love them. the fitment came out perfect for what i want.

f22vtec

lookin good man!

jptypeS

i say it came out good!!

HeartlessMonsta

that is some stance for your pants


so i'm planning on copying your wheel setup lol
just making sure
the tires are 215 width and running natural camber correct?????

spencer_homer

yup correct

HeartlessMonsta

So all you did was a fender roll???

spencer_homer

and lots of lots of camber. at this point on the pics above, it would rub. since then, i slammed more and got more camber and clear in the rear no problem. fronts are another story haha

HeartlessMonsta

so id need a camber kit???

spencer_homer

haha nope its all natrual. but with how much more i lowered it, i got a lot more camber

HeartlessMonsta

Okay that's good to hear. So would you suggest getting them due to the rubbing in the front???

spencer_homer

i mean i wouldnt suggest going with this fitment if you arent prepared to rub a lot.. and go through tires very fast.

HeartlessMonsta

You think 17x8.25 +25?in fronts would be better??? And the same as yours in back.

HeartlessMonsta

Nvm they don't make that

HeartlessMonsta

Wait yes they do!

HeartlessMonsta

okay okay i know im getting annoying..last question lol

So
My plans are 17x8.25 +25 fronts
and
17x9.75 +25 rears

do you think the fronts will be okay
and
if im using a 215/45 tire
you think the backs would be ok?:wish :

spencer_homer

yeah you should be fine. just when you get the fenders rolled, have them pull them as much as possible. I know of an accord running the same set up with the smaller wheel up front and it looks just fine

HeartlessMonsta

Cool! And I should be good in the back?

spencer_homer

no. i wouldnt do it. if your worried about not fitting. then you lack the knowledge and confidence it takes to achieve the stance that i have.

HeartlessMonsta

thanks man for all your help!
i just decided to play it safe and not go too extreme and i ordered some xxr 526's 17x9 +35.

spencer_homer

thats good. they will still be somewhat aggressive. but you wont need to run as low and as much negative camber to get them to tuck under the fenders and clear. if that makes any sense to you.

HeartlessMonsta

yup it does..

This is sick...I was thinking about doing the same thing but wrapping mine matte white, doing the hood, roof, and spoiler in white carbon fiber, and going with the 17X9 rota D2 or your 527's in that white.

that poke is a little too excessive for me but screw it, youre not tracking the car.

good to see you still are ambitious with your car.

spencer_homer

ive gone lower since. little natrual camber, no poke

Germ

man bro that stance is pretty dope...what kinda suspension are you sittin on?...

I_KNOW_NOTHING

i've always loved your car.

Looking great spencer!

spencer_homer

yup thanks guys! shes about to go down for a transplant. then i can begin to rebuild my cressida

spencer_homer

im on dem D2's. im looking into modifying them to get another half inch. in the front at least

Germ

how do you like the d2's...i was thinking of pickin up them ksport coils (even tho i been sayin that for years). how low are you now..after set in that is

732xghost

iTrader: (1)

i thought ksport stopped making coilovers for our chassis?

97CL_NC1102

Where'd you get that rear lip from?

spencer_homer

I made the rear lip. Out of a 96-97 w type wings west rear. i chopped it up. theres a thread i made of how i did it.


I like the d2's. I wish they went a little lower in the front. but im exploring ways of making them a lil lower.

spencer_homer

heres how she sat after i dialed in the suspension after this shoot. much better.

DasMike04

your car is straight bad. ass. mane! did you adjust for camber? or when you lowered it did the natural camber squeeze them in how they sit. idk if its a dumb question but considering width and offset I thought I'd ask.

spencer_homer

yeah your right. the camber brought them into where they are. i dont have any adjusts for camber, all natrual. and your fight, just because of the aggressive fitment on these wheels. and thanks for the love man!

mike271972

Hey whats up new here and im interested in knowing where you got those headlights from. Thanks Sorry if anyone gets upset.
