Didn't know oilsink ever ran 10's in the rear (unless you're somehow compensating for tire width) but thats awesome

I give your stance 7/10. Needs more tire or more low. And needs nicer wheels to match the overall heavily modified look.

I like functional "meat stance" personally
I keep trying to find his "setup" thread but no luck, I never got his wheels specs either. I wonder why he pulled the fenders tho.. :tisk:

He probably didn't run as much camber, and may have wanted wider tires and as much contact patch patch as possible.

Oops, you guys are right!

9.5 +15. Which is ridiculous for our FWD cars, large as they are.

At +15, they might as well be 10" and +40...or something like that.

The lower offset was used to achieve a bigger lip. :naughty:

Yeah I didnt even think of that. Long day of numbers at work allows for no more numbers to be had after work.

yeah I think it's because of the tires.. I woulda just ran more camber instead of messing with the car's lines. At +15 and 9.5in wide you'd need what? 2° camber? Anywayss the car looks dope so it doesn't matter now

Less camber looks nicer imo. I don't like it when cars look like they're "slipping". It always makes me think of a dog trying to walk on ice lol.

I don't think you can run "slammed" on stock fenders at -2 on 9.5 +15

With his tires sizes yeah you can't..but I'm sure you can pull it off with a tire stretch. I don't like stupid camber either but I still think it's better than pulling your fender, especially on our cars the fender looks weird when it's pulled. After reading the specs I don't know if it's slammed or just too much sidewall :confused:

Yeah it depends. He's removed some collars from his coils so he's probably pretty low. And wanting to go with that tire size creates the need to pull.

He's talking about the garage lip. You buy the garage liner and some 3m double sided tape. Tape it to the bottom of your car.
