Sorry, I had posted this earlier this month (August) and did not notice that the image I had intened to include was not attached, here is the image I wanted to show...
I had posted earlier in the year on my new rims, tires, drop spindle disc brake kit, etc... I'm still working out thing's but here's the latest after I dropped the back end as well.
I am still working some clearance issue's on the front, one side rubs a tiny bit, I've looked at rolling the fender lip but don''t have access to this tool, so I've been looking closely at merely trimming a little of the access on the inner fender lip in the middle with a grinder/zip cut, I'd clean it up leaving the trim intact and not noticeable at all.
Any reason I wouldn't do this and any suyggestions here appreciated.
I like the lowered look, and already spent the money on the drop spinde/disc brake kit. I had the same problem when I used 1.5" lowering springs before installing the disc brake/drop spnidle springs and was using ralley rims.
After the install, I changed out the springs because the front end was even lower and it raised it up nicely with a new set of factory height springs, but still rubs a tad bit only when turning sharply on one side.
I like the look I have tried the most offset I can get on a rim I researched drop spindles vs cut springs etc... and felt this made the most sense.
I'm using a BFG 195/60R15 on the front. BFG only makes a 155/80R15 as the next option, but I didn't want the cheese cutter look.
Dam that car looks great with the rim combo you have ,and the stance is nice . I like stock but that little bit of rake is nice just gives the car attitude. I must agree never cut if you can avoid it, way back we used rolling pins/bats whatever fit to roll the lip. Got to be really carefull with the paint and have lots of patience. By rolling it can be reversed with some care.
