More pics!

I got another Stillen front lip and installed it last night. 16 bolts and 6 screws later... it's on! (and never coming off lol)

Due to some shipping issues my lugs didn't arrive until today, so I'll be getting them mounted this afternoon!

Kics r26 neos!

I'll have pics of the wheels and stuff tomorrow!!

I decided not to paint it... :-) and apparently getting wheels mounted is like the hardest thing to do. I've had my wheels for a week now and all of my tire mounting buddies keep flaking. :-/

Maybe today I'll have them on... just maybe...

TypeOne · 06-24-2011, 09:41 AM

They are on!!

Here are a few pics...

I'm really happy with the fitment, the front rubs a little on the inside fender liner but I'm going to take care of that tonight. I MAY run a 10mm spacer in the back, but I'm not sure yet.

I'll have more pics up soon as soon as I can wash it, it has rained the past 3 days.

Thanks for looking!

Nice drop and rims.

TypeOne · 06-25-2011, 07:52 AM

Thanks guys!

How big of a drop are you running on your coils? I dropped about an inch on the front and maybe 3/4 of an inch in the rear and Im thinking of getting those WedsSport wheels.... Do you think the reason you are rubbing is that you went with a 40 in the front rather than 35 to lower the tire hight?

The tire rubs because I'm running +15 offset in the front with a 2.5" drop.

Since I rolled the front fenders, there is no more rubbing and our roads are terrible around here. On a nice smooth surface, it's no issue.

The front tire size is stock and I wouldn't want to go with a 35 as I like the meaty look of rubber on my rim.

I did end up going with a +15mm spacer on the back to make them a 0 offset wheel. I would like my rear to sit a tad bit lower (maybe 1/4 inch) and to do that I'm going to take out one of the perch rings.

I'll probably do this next week... I'll put more pics of it then.

Thanks!
