I've been lurking on CL for quite awhile now. Figured I should introduce, contribute and get active in a forum I visit at least twice a day haha. Besides the little flammers here and there, loving the comradery that come with this forum. So I purchased this 98 LS at the beginning of the year with a few mods already in place, but here are the specs as of now:

Wheels: Work Equips 18x10 18x12 +/-0 offset all around 225/40 and 265/35
Suspension: Junction Produce Coilovers
Camber: -5 in the fronts and -6 in the rears
Exhaust: Removed cat gaskets and resonators. X-Pipe with 2.25" piping out to stock mufflers.
Misc: Rolled, pulled, then complete flare of fenders all around. Vanden Plas Jaguar rear tables.

and here are some pics you may have already seen around.

Not quite sure if I'm a fan but the bodywork looks great, and definitely one of the best thought out applications of 18s on a UCF20 i've seen in some time.

I approve.

Thanks fellas, the fender work was actually done by a buddy of mine who previously owned the car before me so I don't know the cost. A lot of labor though that's for sure. If you notice, even a part of the rear doors were flared and the OEM fender lip look was redone to make it look stock.

im still amazed at how people run 18's on our chassis. sees so small yet it works so well.

it's all about stance of the suspension to make the wheel setup look good

I like the look of 19's on other people's Ls, but for some reason can't see mine in anything over than 18's haha. I'm actually located in Sacramento.

LYKEWOH
