first off your car is RESPECT. Now to the practical Q? how many sets of rims and tires have u gone through from wear, pot holes or any other misc on the street. how many times have you replace oil pans or trans pans. Also any undercarriage assc. I might of forgotten.

Sets of tires? Still running on my Nankang NS2 since last year.
Sets of wheels? this is my second set of wheels. My SSRs were in perfect condition, and so are these.
-Potholes, bumps? I drive around it.
-Oil pan, trans pans? none
-Undercarriage? The exhaust will be the biggest issue. I try no to drive over speedbumps as there are other ways.

Take care of your car, and it will take care of you.

Man, the car looks clean! If I had air I wouldn't go around any bumps, I would roll over them bigfoot style! LOL! Hey Genetic, how do you like the Nankangs noise and ride quality v.s. other tires you have run previously? How many miles do you anticipate getting out of them?

PD, they are designed differently but is basically the same piece that Nagisa Auto offers. These pieces are 35mm's in thickness versus the Nagisa Auto's 20mm. I absolutely love these, I took my 20mm Youzealand front SS kit off and put these on. 15mm lower than before, got more travel on my Tein CS-T's, less bump steer, and overall great.

The website wont be up until the end of the week, but the price is $300! Almost half the price of Nagisa's!

LiCelsior, they don't have anything for the rears at the moment. I just know that these camber rcas and normal ss kits for the 2GS and UCF10 and UCF20 are the only things available.

will they allow for more positive adjustments? The extra 15mm lowering over my youzealand front ss kit is making me really consider purchasing this. But I dont need -6 camber up front lol. Just need that extra 15mm. I'm at -3 up front right now, and i'd like to keep it at that camber, just more lowsss. Possible?

YES POSSIBLE!

If you don't want more camber, they make normal 35mm RCAs for the front.
