stock front fenders widened out like evodave kit? - Page 2

Bo0stin5STI · 07-17-2011, 08:31 PM

Yup. I was looking at either a 18x9.5 or 18x10 +15 to +30.

It would help to get this kit. ALOT.

did tic respond yet? i know...im impatient

Bo0stin5STI · 07-17-2011, 09:14 PM

Not yet. I'll post on here if they do. I also sent them a link to this thread so they could possibly respond in here.

ninja_please80 · 07-17-2011, 09:30 PM

Has anybody tried contacting the seller on fendermods.net? Seems like a bunch of spacers and bolts. Could be universal.

1breel · 07-17-2011, 10:33 PM

I don't see how this could be to difficult to DIY.

05subysti · 07-18-2011, 10:43 AM

Yeah you could DIY but would rather prefer something already put together as a kit to ensure I'm not missing anything. And I don't think evodave sells the kit anymore supposively

GrimmSpeed · 07-19-2011, 01:58 AM

HI

Just saw this thread. I'll have our engineer look into what it would take to do this tomorrow. I think it shouldn't be to hard to get a solution made up for you guys.

Justin,

That's awesome! Thanks for taking a look. Let us know what you guys come up with.

It looks like ass with that gap. Also, looks like it entails to bending the fender?

And people on here are talking like running camber is a bad thing. (don't bother telling me camber kills tires because I'll tell you you're wrong)

BeBop86 · 07-19-2011, 11:39 AM

I know that TOE increases overall tire wear, but does camber increase un-even tire wear?

vision.dynamix · 07-19-2011, 11:43 AM

No, it does not. Especially on a MacPherson strut car. Especially Subarus. Especially lowered Subarus.

Here's a hint: where most people run their camber..that's not enough to prevent OUTSIDE tire wear in performance driving.

Byzantium · 07-19-2011, 12:02 PM

That EVO "kit" looks terrible.

Please don't do it Justin....

It required a lot of cutting front and rear, plus the front inner fenders are tubbed. lowering the car nearly 2" and then putting on 295s needs a lot of clearance.

A couple of little diy brackets should make a difference for a skinnier tire though.

GrimmSpeed · 07-19-2011, 05:26 PM

Thanks for the input AQ, still in awe over that car

Will

05subysti · 07-25-2011, 02:08 PM

damn AQ thats sick. but i think grimmspeed should produce the kit! it is not ugly if properly installed and performed right. Im not looking for 295 like AQ but definitely 265-275 with less work.

keegancdr · 07-25-2011, 02:19 PM

wow aq that set up actually looks like something that could be done reletively easily , but i love how you can see the tires through the fender on the side! looks super sick!

LEGITWRX · 07-25-2011, 02:20 PM

AQ car = tits

5lipstream · 08-13-2011, 11:01 PM

AQ: Have anymore pics of that front fender "mod"?

05subysti · 11-02-2011, 12:25 PM

any update with this? if this doesnt come to production, i must get karlton flares!...

arco · 01-04-2012, 12:30 AM

oh this is interesting. I'd like to see more info

chadb · 04-22-2012, 05:06 PM

Bringing this back from the dead, just to show that it can be done.

I still haven't seen anyone do this, but I did it last night on my GC8. Very easy for a DIY. It is not perfect, but it works.

05subysti · 03-22-2013, 04:52 PM

How'd you do it?
