I ended up cutting the fenders instead of rolling it because, it will rub. The front will rub only when you're driving up a driveway on a full turn. The rear camber were adjusted to -3 camber and the fronts are -2.5.
^ beautiful! any fender modding? what did you use to drop the car?
Thank you! The lips inside all 4 fenders have been gently rolled up/in as to not catch the tire during turning or pulling into a driveway. On the rears, there was enough room that I actually reinstalled the black fender protector after rolling. The fronts do not have the fender protector, but the plastic fender lining is still installed in the wheel well. Tried to keep everything as stock and/or reversible as possible.
It is lowered on entry level K-Sports. They ride... good enough...
I grew up down the street from where K-Sport originally set up shop, have once interviewed there (for their sister-company, Voodoo13) and have always known some of the guys involved, so I got them for a killer deal. I would like to experiment with Stance, PBM, BC, Teins, or perhaps another notable brand in the future. A matter of financial priority... Someday.
ucf31CRB63,
Just wanted to mention that the 93 looks great, good work! Can't wait to see the next set of wheels. Keep us posted.
I am running 18x9 +22 on the front of my '99, on a 225/45. Have any specific questions?
i think you covered it. What are you running in the back? What made you go with the +22 up front? I’m lookomg at doing 18x9 all the way around. Just have not a clue what offsets.

In the back its 18x10 +27 with a 235/45
I didn't choose offsets specifically, I just saw the set of wheels for sale locally and thought "that'll probably work".
Put enough aftermarket wheels on cars and eventually you get a feel for guestimating the fitment.
EthanS,
Would you mind posting a photo of similar angle from the rear and a profile view? I've considered stepping down from 19" wheels to 18 for the comfort of being able to use a beefier sized tire.
