I have xxr 527 18x8.75 35+ on 225/45. My question for everybody is.. When lowered and when you turn your wheel all the way, does the car move forward and back easily? My car doesn't not want to move. Can it be the width of the rim or the 45 of the tire? I have no spacers, fenders are rolled. I think the "stopping" is coming from the fender lining on the sidewall. And what is a good tire size I should run? I don't want a big beefy tire because I don't want to pull fenders and quarters. It's a bugeye sedan, front is not slammed, just a little low, can't give an exact height, sorry

On my front Coilovers I can adjust the camber, I adjusted it the first day, and it did it. Then I put them straight just thinking it was from camber and it wasn't. I'm gonna try to post pics

Because when I was on stock struts and stock springs I was able to turn the wheel all the way and it would move perfectly

But your lower now, so it rubs that's why it does that.. Most people on here run some camber so they don't have rubbing issues

I need to get an alignment anyways, So what degree should I tell them to set it up as? I never got an alignment after I installed my coils and about like 1 2 weeks later of driving it, my rear axle popped out so the alignment is way off, but is fixed now

Neon green, red, blue, any color

There is a Subigirl her: she has a GR with blue/pink... now black/pink. Looks awesome.

And also it's winter, between the snow and salt, and if u were effected by that whore sandy, white is going to be pretttyyyyy hard to keep clean. By all means I've loved white and wanted to paint my 527s white but it's too hard to keep clean. I have 2 white doors on my bugeye and they get dirty so easy, I can imagine with brake dust and all that dirt
