I am lowered on Swift Spec-R springs. There is a slight rubbing in the rear over sharp bumps or dips. Kinda having to drive it very carefully right now.

I will be doing a half roll job and see if it will be good enough. I want to avoid doing a full roll because I don't want to dent the quarters. If the half roll doesn't work I will be taking the lip off with a cutting wheel and leaving 3mm or so that I can roll upward.

^ Holy crap, only now I noticed that that's another ARC Ti exhaust! It's like the third or fourth one I see the boards! EvoM is now officially full of ballers.

5Zigen ZR+520 18x9.5 275/40/18 Falkin FK-452 I recommond not to go this route unless you are willing to put the time to cut pieces of metal out of the car.

What did you have to cut? What is the offset?

At this point the offset didn't matter but is it 37 the tire rub through the plastic piece in the back of the front fenders. And cutting deep into the tire on bare metal. Had to dremal and sand that piece close the front side marker. Also rolled the rear fenders

+28 BUMP

What are you +28's running for rear camber? I just put it on for a test fit. Need to roll the rears for sure, but not sure if I need some more camber or not.



+12 BUMP

Trying to buy these from my friend and get a smaller tires.

^Wow! I absolutely love those bronze wheels .

I remember that I've seen it before on another car, but I forgot who made these or what are these called. Could someone tell me what's the name for these wheels?

Yeah, my friend which is a member here (Evo Tengoku) told me the same thing. Too bad it's discontinued (where replaced with the RE30), but there may be some left in the U.S.
