But now you have a rear wheel sticking out. And have to add more camber, which is detrimental to your pockets ($) and performance in the future.
If you had a lipped wheel I could understand wanting a 1/2" lip more on the wheel. But the face of this wheel does not change at all.

That being said, its your car, and Work Emo's always look good.

Also you contradicted yourself, as I was just stating my own opinion(of a perfect stance). I don't have to dick ride like everyone else.
Uh sorry to burst the bubble, but i had these wheels, 4 years ago, on my S14. But hey, ill take your advice and go dream of a mexi-flush EvoX =)

18x9.5 +12 all the way around, 25 mm spacer front, 30 rear
30mm wide front fenders, 1.5" pulled rear fenders.
effective offset :
18x9.5 -13 F
18x9.5 -18 R

Also, when he posts better pictures, they will look a lot better.

As I posted, i'm not "jealous" of anything from the evo camp, i think they're awesome cars..wheel fitment either way i've done way more extreme then both chassis' can do on RWD cars.

I owned an r33 when i lived in japan... It was nice... carbon hood no wing... white also... and something that you've prob never heard of... a supercharged RB from the dealer...

Rather than spend hours getting into this story, AGAIN, let me give you some of the short version.

Carlos, AKA betty on DC Evo Club, is a DTM *****. He's all about bashing any shop other than DTM, which is all well and good.

The wires were not soldered. They were completely wrapped in tape, and there was NEVER any comment made before about moving some brake line and now a leak...all new to me.

Carlos left his car with us for a week or so, and each time he called, he added more parts to his list. The work was done as requested, and there were no complaints from either side. Carlos took the car to GT Live and his poorly made Weapon R intake manifold blew out....big shocker. Upon removing the part, Carlos found a bolt missing. The bolts were in the car when it left. The car was put together properly. Maybe beating on it at GT Live caused a bolt to fall out, maybe the manifold blowing caused it...but the car left in a proper, completed state.

Carlos sent me an email saying he would do all he could to ensure no one ever came to our shop, and he would bad mouth us every chance he got. I told him to swing by the shop and we'll see what the problem was. We apologized for not soldering those wires. We offered to fix it, but he passed. He then asked if we would build him a stroker motor. I explained that after his email explaining his intensions of bad mouthing us, I thought it would be best if he went elsewhere. A car that he plans to race in time attack events will be pushed to the limits, and if he is so upset about us not soldering a wire, and he plans to ruin our reputation due to that, I would hate to hear his repsonse should he blow a motor...which would be blaimed on the builder of course.


So there's all sorts of shouting back and forth, and lots of comments how we suck and DTM is great. We stand behind our work, and we're happy to help out where we can, and we'll gladly admit if we make a mistake. If Carlos wasn't such a child and crying about his plan to take us down with his insults, we would have been happy to help him out. But as stated, it was better for us to send him on his way.


So flame away.
