@Honda_FD: i have a few question:
1) how low is your car at the moment, any difficulties for daily driving with that height?
2) what spec are your wheels now?
3) with your wheels spec at the moment do you have any issues with scrubbing, hitting your guards?
4) are you on natural camber?
5) do you have to do any fender jobs?
and one more thing: if you have any photos that i can see it would be helpful. thanks a lot :-)
Bao lol!
Similar but yeah,
Lolmclol I get ya what you mean dw my man <3
Aw yeeeee <3
@IOU
1) how low is your car at the moment, any difficulties for daily driving with that height?
At the moment. My lowest point is about 50mm (5cm) off the ground. Not 100% sure as I hav no proper way to measure it
But definitely under the legal limit.
The main problem I have driving at this height is that my frame/chassis always hits the ground on bumps. Especially the front K Frame.
FDs has a really low frame for some reason. Speedhumps are the worst. Always have to slow down and hold up traffic.
But you will get used to it and you'll learn how to avoid them. Your reflexes improves alot and you judgement will be better.
I rarely hit the ground now that I have gotten useed to the car. I literally know every potholes and big Bumps/Dips on the road.
and which road I can take and which road to avoid.
Also, The Axleback pipe for the muffler will touch the Lower Control Arm if I have someone in the rear seat. No passenger is ok though.
2) what spec are your wheels now?
F: 17x8.5+30 - 215/40
R:17x9.5+38 - 215/45
Planning on getting something similar size but lower offset
Getting an alignment soon to adjust my front camber. Thinking about going -1 degrees.
Gives little more clearance when turning and when the car leans it will allow me to get extra grip
I need to improve the cars handling to keep up with DAN on our "Cruise" down the mountain
3) with your wheels spec at the moment do you have any issues with scrubbing, hitting your guards?
My front guards have bent itself giving me a little extra clearance but looks ugly lol
Nothing Major in the rear unless you plan on doing heavy cornering or have people in the back seat.
This was before I got my guards rolled. No problems at all now that they are rolled.
4) are you on natural camber?
Natural at the moment. Planning on getting Camber arms as I want to get wider wheels
5) do you have to do any fender jobs?
Recently got Athid to Roll/Lip my guards. Did an awesome job. Highly recommended!
Lipped Guards looks awesome aswell.
But even before I got it rolled, car was still drive able. No major scrubbing or anything.
Having 215/45 on a 9.5" rim is quite aggressive. But I like it.
You should come Derrimut carwash someday when you're free.
DAN and I go every now and then when theres something going on. It'll be good to meet you
What type of pictures do you want?
