Cusco Zero2R's & Volk CE28n's Installed...

On my FC! So some of you are aware of my little buildup going on in the NW section as can be seen here. Subseqently, I needed to remove my current suspension on my daily driver FC in order to complete the other car. So I spent some of yesterday installing the coilovers that I've had sitting around for almost a year, and the wheels that I'd have sitting around for over 2 years (all before I had to study for and take a psych final). So anyways, here's pics of the install:







And of course, for comparison pusposes, here is a before shot of the car (stock wheels, stock struts/espilir ASD springs):


And after:





Specs on the wheels are:
F: 17x8 +35; 205/50/17 BFGoodrich KDW NT
R: 18x9.5 +27; 235/40/18 Toyo Proxes FZ4

The 17x8's are just temporary until shineautoproject is done making the foresight 30mm widefenders for the front, at which point I'll put the 18x9.5's up front and get some 18x10.5's for the back. Anyways, comments are welcome.

Oh, and the rear is going to be lowered about another inch within the next week or so

Car is too low...actually just the rear.
You got a rear camber adjust bar?
It looks like too much rear camber in the rear.
Gonna eat tires like crazy...

Don't go idiot low. Just get rear camber adjust bars and set it back to (or close as) stock. You'll notice the better improvement

You're an idiot. Lower is NOT always better. Why don't you go watch F&F a few more times, k? The grown ups are talking here...

this thread is ollddd wway to goo!


ANYWAYS, that car aint too low, its the bodykit that makes it look lower. If it had stock wheels and stock body, it would look like any other FC with suspension.
