I still dont have the rear dtss kit... and I could definitely use more angle. I kept hitting full lock when I started to get used to the coarse, feels I can squeeze some more angle in if I just had the knuckles... My clutch is worn, had to clutch kick several times and then in midle of drifts the clutch would slipp and slipp and It wont hold the drift...so I ordered a new stage 3 clutch... should be easier for next time..

17x10 +12 plus 30mm spacer, effectively -22.. 235 45 17 re01. I tried to do it without the spacer, but it rubs the coilover.



It looks kinda weird.. If I had a 20mm spacer it would be perfect.. Thats max camber as well.. Maybe I should grind out the camber plates more..or maybe I just need wider front fenders lmao.. makes the rear look bad!

It does look ugly.

Imo, the sportmaxes looked really good. What the hell made you buy those and then install them on stock fenders?

I would have saved the money and bought an angle kit, 4 puck, dtss and modded knuckles....then bought every girl at the local bar a drink with the money you spent on those 5 zigens.

The white 2k wheels looked better than the hacked up new fenders and incorrectly sized front wheels. I dont mean to say they looked good, but they looked better.

Make the FNs rear spares.

my front fenders were always hacked..Its the only way to clear from rubbing when I drift. It even kinda broke itself in to fit the 18s sportwax while driving..Its just from far away, you cant tell its hacked, or from far away pics. If you go close up you can see how its all f8cked. But I dont really care how it looks, as long as it doesnt rub in my way when I drift, and that it can fit super cool wheels lol. lol Well eventually I can get some 30mm wide fenders, maybe after Im done practicing and get decent at driving Il clean up my cars cosmetics... those s2k wheels are like dohnut spares ewe....lol I think I might go up to Balcony this Sunday and try out the new layout..I hope I can swap out my new clutch in time.. That new layout looks crazy, the staight away goes all the way !

I dont care if your kit is zip tied on and your over fenders are rivetted on and not molded. you gotta have some name brand wheels with nice offsets. its what separates us from the ricers. am i right?

I didn't know people considered Fno1rc's legit rims lol

They are so played they are coming full circle into a new phase of being played. They let CR Kai's dominate for a while..but now they've had enough.
