New wheels on lancer 08 DE WW

Here are some night pictures of my car, waiting to get better day pics. All coments are welcome.







I know it has a little camber going on the back but I hope to fix that in the future.

It's lowered on Tein S-Tech 08' and the wheels are Drag 18 x 7 wrapped on Falken ziex 912 225/45/18.

The gold and white look awesome. The drop looks way better. IMO u got to paint the calipers. It would look better. How do u fix camber in the rear? I thought camber bolts only went on the front. Car looks good

You can't fix it with camber bolts I wished it would be that easy hehe. Maybe with some alignment.

Nice

It looks like you either need a little bit of a drop, or a little thicker rubber...
that gap is a little too noticeable

It's on Tein S-tech, that drop is 2" front and 1.9" in the back to be exact. If I get lower than that one of two things might happen, first I would blow up my stock shocks or second if I get by accident in a big pot hole it might hit the crank or the oil filter and it would mean bad news (again) :P...

Thanks for the reviews keep'em coming.

Jehuty, I'm also thinking about blacking out the middle.

Trust me, don't think just do it . One other thing I dunno how it works, but see if you can get the GTS front lip the car would look a lot nicer.

Yeahp that's a no brainer, the calipers are going red.

Jehuty, I was thinking on getting the GTS front lip with the diffuser but then decided to wait and order one from Singapore. That lip is one piece, not like the GTS one that is two pieces.
