Btw, 18x9+30 barely rubs on big bumps on stock suspension
Hmm ok. I plan on doing the gtworx bilstein strut/rce black spring combo and I have had my eye on a set of rpf1s in gold. I wish something like 18x8.5 or x9 was available in the 5x100 pattern. Seems like x9.5 is out of the question since I would like to avoid pulling.

Drove around for about an hour or so after work and contemplated if I should wash my car today...Because as soon as I do. It loves to rain and here where I live it likes to rain mud lol. But I washed it anyways

Washed my commuter to get it ready to sell next weekend.

Washed my new 2013 SWP wrx. I love SWP when it's clean and the sun is shining on it.

Washed my wife's fit that desperately needed it.

Now I have a driveway full of clean cars.

There are a set of sbc rpf1 in the for sale forum 5x100.

If you get more camber in the rear you would be ok.... I don't think the front is the problem.

Decided I was tired of dealing with the clear bra on the bumper and took it to a shop to be sanded down and repainted!

Ordered 2 STi logos, OE sticker set, and a new plastic cover for the gauge cluster.

Next stop is Shine Car Shine for a full detail to make her look new again!

drove the bugeye to my friends place to get half priced burgers at gl shack. We passed a parked slammed evo with a blast pipe up to its trunk As we went in and sat at the bar, we all knew who the owner was. The only guy in there in a slightly skewed/curved hurley baseball cap.

I turned this:



into this:



Maybe I should have painted the differential and a few other things while I was at it.



This project took me a while, but I'm glad that I did it. I also replaced all of the struts, springs, tophats, lateral & trailing links, and bushings. There were a lot of rusty bolts and I feel much better knowing that they've been replaced with shiny new ones!
