I give you a lot of **** for your choice in wheels (that won't change) but those lug nuts are seriously cool. I love how they're extended so you don't

Where'd you get them and how much?

It's all good not everyone has this taste might go with less aggressive set and not so much stretch. Wheels came with these tires from previous owner. Too much stretch even for my taste.

Got them from b2autodesigns. They're like 275-300

Installed my coilovers and my Front and rear Camber arms.


coiloverbox by Nemo210nem07, on Flickr


before by Nemo210nem07, on Flickr


install by Nemo210nem07, on Flickr


after by Nemo210nem07, on Flickr


need to raise the rear a bit more to match the fronts.

only issue i have right now is that the front A arms ar hitting the fender well when i hit a big enough dip is there something i missed in the install? or is that normal?

If the spring rate isn't high enough to keep from bottoming out the suspension, you can try raising the stiffness on the dampers.

Chances are you're going to have to just raise the ride height though, considering you're almost tucking rim on the front.

thats what iw as thinking the dampening is all the way hard it doesnt do it too much anymore just when i hit a decent sized dip and at a fast enough speed.

i might take off and get a higher spring rate not sure.

Just placed order for new wheels decided to go another route since these would take more work and too much camber to fit.

Nice. I havent decided on any wheels yet. It doesnt matter since I wont be buying any for a while anyway lol. Id keep the F14's to supplement the Works. They look killer on your car.
