Finally some full shots

Well I just wanted to show some full shots of my car I finally got. Yes, I know I need to lower the front a tad bit and probably raise the rear a tad bit when I figure out what to do about the front. Has anyone removed the wheel well liner? I think that and shaving off the front fenders may help solve the issue. But anyways, here are my pictures, let me know what you guys think!

Thank you very much! Although I wish I could claim the #1 WDP, there are many other nicer ones! I have tons of work to do to be on the levels of JP and Decafe.

I guess both wheels have the 10 spoke design haha

The volk side is 18x9.5 +15 for the front and the rear. The ccw side is 18x9.5 +13 for the front and rear. The front lip is smaller because of the BBK, but I really do not mind the staggered look!

Honestly, I have no clue. My friend took the pictures and sent them to me. I just got excited to share them so I posted them ASAP lol.

You are correct haha. Thats why I did it, because you will never see them at the same time, and it was the only way to satisfy my wheel fetish without selling my wheels. There will be more in the future haha.

It was my solution since the decision of classy or sporty was too difficult to make. Already thinking about what pair to get next

There will be lots more to come. Although I am thinking about starting a dc2 project.

I really like the flow of the ce's too. They look bigger but then I couldn't resist the mesh wheels anymore. It was a great chance to be able to come as close as I could to match the +15 offset with CCW's.

So what do you have planned for your car this summer??

Thanks, I just can't get enough wheels haha. They are just so exciting when you open the box and stare for hours.

Yeah, running camber all around. the fronts are -.7 and -1 while the rears are -2.6

Well, I only bought 2 lm20s haha. But my other Volks are in my basement that are 18x9.5 +22. I was thinking about making a table out of them for my room

Nothing else really, but there will be more photoshoots when I figure out how to deal with the rub on the front passenger side

Looks like you already have the fenders rolled. Now you can slightly pull the fender right where the bumper meets. That part that curves in, I hade to "shave" the inside lip of the fender a few inches to make it flexible to flare that part (use heat gun too). Where the plastic part of the bumper meets i used a dremel to shave/shape it on the inside to make some room(however, your tires will do this job over time)

hope you can kinda make out what im talking about. still too early to think straight. my point is my fenders dont curve back in where the bumpers meets. Also bent the tab up where the bumper bolts to the fender.
