How much camber are you running to get the front tires to tuck like that?  I have the same rims and they stick out at least a 1/2"

 

 

Nothing excessive. Probably around -2* all around front and rear. My camber plates are about half way to max negative camber.

Been a while, so I'll just trow it up der'!

No big whoop - just 15x7 Rota alpina copies, yoko 195/50, GC coilovers front, GC adjustable rear. Koni adjustables all around, IE sways.

That's pretty dope...dare I say perfect even?

 

Goals. Must.Maintain.Goals.

 

Thank you for the inspiration.

Thanks spyder, this is as low as I can run the car and still have it be really functional. The only rubbing I am getting is in the front, when wheels are turned, crossing a gutter or entering a driveway. 2.5" x 7.5" x 325# springs up front. 8" x 300# springs (which GC sends by default) wont work to run the car this low: the adjusting collar will run on the front tire.

Not sure if I've ever put a pic up of my work in progress. This car won't be perfect, but it'll look pretty good hopefully

 

 

Are your flares steel? Fiberglass? They look cool!

Can anyone identify these wheels from earlier in the thread? 

 

They sort of look like campagnolo's, but seem a bit different.

These look to be VW mk1 rabbit flairs and made from steel.

Well it took me a few years but i have now seen every photo on this thread LOL. sooo epic.

Careen is on:
Ground control coilovers + camber plates

15x7.5s not sure of the offset sorry (probably generic)

185/45s

Lots of rolling + a little banging.

No rubs. Can shove

Replaced the H&Rs with STs and did a little cut here and there. Mounted 5mm spacers at the rears. 15x8 ET0 on 205/50s

Speaking of stance striking a pose  ...it was warm today and I did a little cleaning and posing the car.
