Work VS-XX and APR front lip

Sorry for the bad quality pics and dirty car, had to hurry and get to work today. Will have better pics hopefully by this weekend.

Work VS-XX 18x8.5
Specs:
Front-R Disk 32mm (i have to double check the offset) close enough to the caliper
Rear-A disk 32mm still has almost a finger width to the caliper
Lowered on Tanabe GF210
Tires 245/40/18
No rubbing whatsoever, even at full turns.....


Someone wanted bigger pics.....



Huge thanks to Mark at Ravspec...... kept me updated as much as possible during the wait for the wheels. Also another big thanks to carz Performance Dynoshop here in Lakewood for helping me out.

Staggered fitment....right? The front wheel's center looks like it comes out past the lip, while the rears have a lip.


They look great nonetheless!

Yeah it is a staggered fitment, but it doesn't come past the lip. Thanks for the compliments.

Yes it is, it's the APR lip.

I will warn you about the lip, the fit was near perfect....just a slight gap on one side but get the clear 3m bra thing for it. I put it on, came to work and already had a chip in it.
