u r bold...but are u daring?

i like my stance right now. but tired of my wheels. need new look. i fell in love with some wheels but the offsets are low.. im thinking of running it n say fuck it... specs are as follows..

front:
stock.......7"+42
winter......8"+48
current..8.5"+35
future... 9.5"+25

rear:
stock.......7"+42
winter......8"+48
current...10"+42
future.....10"+30

off the wall ballzy... not 100% in until i pay it ofcourse. i wanted som knowledge from ppl who run alot of negative camber....

what should i look out for...what should i expect...etc

ive been thru alot with these current wheels..n they only on during the summers... last pothole was a meteor hole... both front n rear pass side wheels went in...bottomed out soooo bad it chipped my rear bumper..n crimpled my quarter panel... i still havent fixed it.. not sure what ima do with that...i got use to it..



a pic to get an idea of my current stance... sticks out front n rear a bit but with a tiny lil strech on the tires it works... 235 in the front 265 in the rear

You want opinions?
Sorry, there's nothing worse (to me) than pulling up next to a car where the wheels stick out of the wheel wells.

Tells me they either have no clue what they're doing, were too cheap to get the right offset, or they truly think it looks good.

Yep. Those were my previous wheels. Spec were (f) 18 x 9 +20 (r) 18 x 10 +20. Sold them to buy my JDM bumper and the current wheels I have now. Yeah, the wheels in my avatar are different. Lol.

You made your opinion clear in your first post of this thread.... Move along. Some like it n some don't. We already know where you stand.

I hate when rims stick out further than the tires. And the V shape has to wear tires out pretty quickly.

When the TOE is set correctly, the camber isnt that bad on tire wear... If your TOE is messed up the tires will get eaten up REAL fast.

ingalls rears came with toe and camber...alignment shop would be able to set that perfect...or wing it by jacking up n rolling under the car and tighting where u think its right.... you could do camber yourself but i doubt youlll ever get toe correct...


nsxnext...som like it som dont...when ppl first started streching...i didnt like it myself...it kinda grew on me.. now i hate seeing unstaggered aftermarket wheels... too... to each their own....som love chrome wheels...I HATE THEM...but im not gonna stop being your friend cuz of it..lol...feel me?

fsttym1....i wished i tracked...that video you have of a car following you gets me sooo souped... i wouldnt be able too tho... i rub to much righ now...

this pic is where i rub the most.... cant i cut that out?.... its right behind the bumper..... heres a few views...




that metal piece along side the bumper tab that i cut out...
i only rub on this while going over bumps fast... and with fat chicks in the back seat.... i gotta get me that sticker so they kno the deal...

It's not as bad as you would think. As long as your toe is aligned you should be good. I've gone about 5-6k miles on my current setup and there's no uneven wear or any cupping.
