Default Help with Setup Picture 17x?

Is anyone running a setup on their ls with 17 in rims?
I've been looking and its been pretty hard to find a decent picture
and by decent picture I've been looking for a slammed ls ( 2.5 pref ),
and pref rims ( bbs rs ).

If anyone is running this setup, could you please post a pic?
Or if anyone has a picture.

TY in advance.

i suggest you use the "search this thread" tool at the top of each page of posts in a thread to look for your desired setup in the rather large and complete "wheel/tire setup" thread that's stickied on the forum.

From my point of view, slammed on 17's isn't typical since the UCF2X has a nicer look on 19-20's. With the 1X 17-18's look about right. Please list what year of yours, makes it easier to quickly help. Otherwise, we have to click through your profile to get car info if you've listed it.

thanks for the first pic, not as slammed as i want it though, and good lookin on the two links.

I know what the search bar is, sometimes its just hard to get specifically what you want because you dont know how to word it out. I even previously stated I have been looking. Thanks I guess for pointing out the obvious.


p.s. my car is 99.

Didn't realize you were looking for UCF2x pics. No, not slammed. I can set it lower to see what it looks and rides like, and take some pictures, but I will be scraping my driveway. As it sits now, it is a very comfortable and family-friendly setup for daily driving on our crappy roads.

2.5" is just about even with the wheel arch on near stock diameter tires. Tucking some tire will be at 3".
