It's cause of the +30 offset.. Stock offset is +53mm. His wheels sit almost a full inch further out, or almost a full inch closer to being flush with the fender.

i doubt anything needed to be done in the front. however i'm almost positive rolling is a must.

i'm amazed at how flush those sit at a +30 because they are only 8'. well done sir.

hahaha I was taking pictures and decided to give it one last heave, and sure enough the last bit of it popped into place. Now I feel like an idiot... I'll post up pics of my car tomorrow to actually contribute to this thread.

Glad you figured it out, lol, if there's one thing I know, it's popping things into other things. And dirt, definitely dirt.

Hey guys. These wheels will require rolling in the rear and front at my height with the coils. You may be able to run 225s and just roll the rear a little. I'm going to roll the rears all the way flat and get some adjustable LCA's in The rear an put my spacers on. But the front is right where I want it.

Thanks for the completes everyone. Im happy the way they turned out.

Jdmoon86 · 08-09-2012, 02:23 AM

i have those on my car now too! I love them, however, the color isnt quite the same, (LEDs are a little more blue than the stock hids) But i love them still

That's gotta be annoying to on-coming traffic?

What Ivan said. MY LED lights are annoying to on-coming traffic, perfect for the retards that do t understand how to turn off their hi-beams when their other cars coming towards them.

Unfortunately Alaska doesn't have seven characters yet, really limits options. I considered that last one too, or SRSLY, but they were taken.

Nighthawkra · 08-09-2012, 01:22 PM

you're a few pages too late on this idea

Nighthawkra · 08-09-2012, 01:50 PM

Lmao I kno..

Jive Turkey · 08-09-2012, 02:29 PM

the subaru race car runs vents instead of fog lights...

i had the chance to sit in and talk to the race team here are some pictures for you rancer.

the cars runs a 265/35 on a 18x10 wheel for those who are interested...

Gregor91 · 08-09-2012, 02:32 PM

And people say being flush is stupid and just for looks. That car kicks lots of as with that stance lol those scoops look awesome. If they made those available to the public I bet they would sell like crazy. Any have any recommendations for some rear LCA's I don't much about them. Not looking to spend a **** load of money but idk want to buy the cheapest thing put there. Just want something that's good quality! Thanks

finally got to a computer so i figured i would reply to everyone lol

thanks yea i can see where you're getting that from but the tl s wheels don't have nearly as many spokes

Jive Turkey · 08-09-2012, 02:35 PM

I DONT HAVE LCA'S. my setup IS NOT that aggressive to need rear camber to make it fit, if anyhitng i'd get them to run LESS camber in the rear to get more of a contact patch but right now i'm only at -2.2 which is PERFECT for cornering.

if you must buy them, get gtspec arms.

hit them with some anti-seize before you put them on and you're good to go.

and that racecar look is EXATLY what i was going for with mine. think i came pretty close.

being flush isn't stupid, being hellaflush or so low that it actually hurts your handing significantly is stupid, there is a difference...

Also you can stand to be lower when your car is only used on a race track, its stupid to be that low when your car is in constant danger of of scrapping on everything

xbeamelite · 08-09-2012, 02:46 PM

Damn... I like that lip. Looks so clean.
