Installed GF210's........
 
And man this car is way to low, is it possible I could have put the springs on backwards :confused: I installed them with the lettering facing upright.
I feel like my poor Evo looks like a ricer car :(
The front of the car looks way to low, what do you guys think......

Those pics are to dark, I need to get some of it in the daylight. Our alingment machine at work will not work cause the front end it to low, to me it might look ricer cause the front camber is so far off making the front bumper looking like a street sweeper :lol: . Is it possible to get the alingment with in factory spec with these springs?

how does the car ride and handle? what size tires and wheels (offset)?

vwjeff Jul 25, 2006 04:12 PM

^Factory tire's, and rims. Rides and handles fine, so far, I haven't driven it to much cause of the alingment, but the ride seem to be sweet :thumbup:

make sure your front crash bolts are set to -1 and not -2, you'll wear out tires pretty quick if you've got em on -2.

?

Strerling your car looks great, I guess I think the 8's look so much better than 9's :dunno: also I just like the front end and wheels alot more than I do on the 9's.
And yeah I think it will just have to grow on me a bit.
I went back up to work today after I made this post and did some reserch on the camber, and found I had one of them -2 and the other -1..... opps :updown: I fixed that problem, when I put everything back together I didn't realize that the top bolt was cammed :rolleyes:
So I fixed it and gave it an alingment (after f-ing w/ the machine) and it drive SO much nicer, I just didn't have time for the alingment lastnight.
Here are some better pictures......

It looks great man. Glad you got that stuff figured out. Definitely not an ounce of "rice" to it... unlike my overload of carbon fiber :lol:
