17x9 +25 in progress

putting some rota p45rs on my lancer. here are some pics. theres not much rubbing on the front innner fender but im only lowered on springs. there are stock springs in the back for now.

theres no clearance issues in back

i have a body shop thats going to pull the fenders. the guy says he has a hydrolic puller and it should look great but the back is going to be somewhat hairy.

I love it! I love how it sit wide!

You have done 5 lug conversion? Did you put spacer to make it fit? i would like to do something similar but with 4x100 lol

Oh and what's your drop? :P

Pics of the back? Would like to know how you squeezed 9" wide wheels in there with no rubbing issues!

...cause they certainly don't fit in the front (good luck with the fenders, it'll look sweet if it works)

yes i do have the 5 lug conversion.

i dont have pics on the back yet i just bolted it on there and mad sure it wasnt rubbing the suspension anywhere.

it sticks out just as wide in the back. and the wheel clears the suspension components no need for a spacer.

that might change tho once i get coilovers. but on the front there is very minimal rubbing that can be fixed with a heat gun and cold water.

Looks pretty good. Your the first lancer I have seen with an aggressive wheel set up. Now just get your suspension work done, fenders rolled if need be, and enjoy the ride. Looks good though.

Add some camber, and slam her... join the rest of the honda crowd. with mega camber setups.. (i think it looks good if done right) and ur on the right track!

Awesome.

It won't stick out as much once you add some negative camber
and lower it more

turns out that the rear is going to be a real pain to pull out and keep from rubbing at the doorside by the rear.

i had a body shop friend of mine look at it and i decided im going for different wheels.

if anyone is interested in these wheels i have 2 of them and they will be for sale.

im probly keeping the tires but for the right price i will leave them on the wheels thanks.
