quoted because huge pictures.

and derek is a unicyclist so his opinion is null and void

:biggrin:

a votex lip or at least a euro lip would really finish it off

This, car looks great but some sort of lip would be spectacular

It looks like it may have a Euro lip.

if i have a 18x9.5 et32 with a 215/40, how much camber do i need to get it to sit fender in between the lip and tire? i have to order shims so i cant try to mess with it myself...

and to keep it on topic, an old picture i saw awhile ago

You don't need shims to camber the rear, there is an eccentric bolt on the inboard side of the camber arm.

9.5" et24 usually sits perfectly in the fender with max stock camber, et32 will sit on the lip but not tuck into it. Ideally your setup with max camber should sit nicely and won't destroy your fenders to badly if you air out slowly.

you could also throw at 6mm spacer on the rear if you feel it needs a bit more tuck
