The wheels are not done being fitted to the car. I need to do fender work now.

Its called camber bro. Give the guy a chance to finish fitting his wheels. He posted he just got them, so obviously he isnt finished with it yet. (just an FYI, my rear wheels stuck out like that too before i fit them properly... sooo yea)

and i dont get what you mean by "extra wings". he has a roof and trunk lip... no wings that i can see...

Thanks for helping me out as for more wings. He may be talking about my Junction Produce eye lids. I know it's not for everyone but I modified my car to my style and taste.

So I got tired of these 19" Dining Room accessories and decided to get my **** together. Spacers installed, UCA clearance, fenders shaved & massaged, and big chrome faces now spinin. My friggen 1 year old BC Racing rear collars are seized and I cant go lower so I gotta try again when I have more time... Ridin conservative for now but still kinda dirty. IPhone5 pic -

Looks like a good driving height. functional. I raised mine up 3 times Now its functional for road trips. 80mph slammed static on the interstate wasnt fun.

And that exactly it. With a drop like this and maybe a touch more you can actually carry people & luggage without beating the crap out of the car. I too drive lots, especially on freeways so it was important that I didnt slam it too much. It is for that reason I choose tire sizes similar to stock diameter.

i didnt know you were still on the work to fit them. with camber will look sick. and yeah, i meant the eye lids, truck lid, rear visor as "wings" sorry my english is not perfect. Anyway.. as I said before, it is your car and it had to be done to satisfy you. Dont get me wrong, it is a sweet machine.

The 99 is a breeze compared to the #1 which has become a quilted blanket of different asphalt patches from 4 years of construction.
