dont raise it if you want to stay low. i say lower the front alittle more and add more camber all around, also think about a mild pull as well. this is an easy setup to fit and be low you just have to work at it.

Yeah, I was thinking of just adjusting it similar to the front. Don't really want to add more camber, I don't want having quicker tire wear. Might just add a little negative camber on the rear, probably the same as front from -2 to -2.5.

it would probably help. btw camber doesnt really kill tires its toe. ive been running -4.5 for at least 6months with no excessive tire wear. dont get me wrong it wears faster than no camber but from -2.0 to say -3.0 its not a big difference

How about these wheels lol. I wanna know if they would clear the brembos on my 2011 sti. Any spacers needed? Fenders rolled? And what tire size would look and go well for it. 5x114.3 2x 18x8 +37 2x 18x9 +37 |

No way to answer you unless we know the disk type, but you really don't want those wheels. They are narrower than your stock wheels and staggered. You will need so much spacer to make them somewhat "fitted", about 25mm or so.

0* f and -0.5* rear? really? that must feel awful.
other than that, looks good but you could run a LOT more tire of you dial in some camber. |

because as he stated he is a hard parker and wants to be herrafrush yo why does it matter to you so much what somebody does to there car?
i personally would try to fit 18x12s if you could just to say you did, but 18x11s with a low offset will look sick as hell with lots of camber. what wheels are you thinking of getting? cant wait to see it when you do it. im thinking of getting some 18x10.5s or maybe 11s just to see if i can get them to fit on stock body with just alittle pull and alot of camber |

i'm pretty sure miro's in that size require at least a 10mm spacer to clear brembos......

yes, 18x11 just for the looks, no real reason, but im alright with that uhm but being that i have 5x100 there is not a whole lot of choices for that size, but more than likely i will go with vs-xx but those are a large chunk of change.
