Can you fit spacers behind them to get the tire closer to the fenders? and does that car have a wider track in the front or rear or something? Some of them side shots make it look like either the front or rear has a wider track. Either way Im really lovin the way your car looks with them wheels. :th_thumbsup-wink:

I think that most cars are like that, wider in the front. Trucks are definitely like that.
 


Re: my 2006 scoobie: out with the old, in with the new.

new driveability stance with mostly corrected rear camber....

was 1/2" lower in the front before, 3/4" lower in the back with way too much camber.

yep, pretty close. i still left the car slightly raked with the front end lower.

i actually had to beat the collars on the coilovers with a screwdriver and a hammer so i could get them to spin. i was rounding them off with the spanner wrench. stupid....real world conditions...
 


Re: my 2006 scoobie: out with the old, in with the new.

and knowing theyve been on the car for...two months and they are already stuck? that sucks..
 
Re: my 2006 scoobie: out with the old, in with the new.

^^I think it is Spade.

Like I said...it looks ooooookaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay guy
 
Re: my 2006 scoobie: out with the old, in with the new.

Love the stance. Any chance you have a picture that's more or less straight on one of the sides of the car? I want to get a better look at those wheels with the profile of the car.
 
Re: my 2006 scoobie: out with the old, in with the new.

It definitely looks a lot better in person. Pictures don't do those rims justice.

This...I thought they looked ugly when he posted a link to the rims. And the I saw them on the car in person and was like "wow, those don't look bad at all."
