My UCA hit all day everyday. Then again its a UCF10 on 18's. His car probably lowers a bit more with him driving + a passenger though. Looks sharp.

Yes, my UCA are hitting a lot! I want to go lower alot more to match the rears but i cant find a way, im rubbing already and i dont want to stretch my tires. I want that "meaty" look. I need to drill out the holes up top also.

I installed my Studio parts yesterday. I'll do a write up later. Everything fit very easily...and then we lowered the car down. You can't run 16s (I still had my stockers with snows on the car when we installed everything), and you will have to modify your fenders (my fronts are 19x9.5 +30) unless you run mega-high offsets.

I'm not on coilovers, and I'm not on air

thanks man. Yeah, I'm going to lower the rear some to match. Looking for a rear RCA kit now that's for sale.

Surprisingly, my UCAs don't hit, and I'm a bit baffled that they don't. And the fenders were hammered with rubber mallets. I was in a pinch at my buddy's shop which is about 20 miles from my house and just did what I had to do so I could drive the car home. I'll be reshaping the fenders and get them looking clean again.

Put my new wheels on tonight and took her out to check for rubbing. Heres a little teaser from my buddy's instagram, still need to pull the metal some more so I can drop it maybe half and inch. Car is currently in a state of disassembly so pardon the dual exhausts on only one side

Specs are 18x9.5 -1
18x11 -8

Your car looks amazing. How did you get that kind of drop without riding on air or coil overs?

Same thing I'm thinking. NO coilovers, No air, Studio parts only? WTF...?
