so i posted a thread about getting my car lower. you can find that here http://www.stanceworks.com/forums/sh...ewpost&t=35490
and i figured i would let anyone know thats still following this thread know. probably wont be any updates for a bit...other than i got wheel locks for the XXRs, and smiley face dude valve stem covers, to go with my cigarette lighter. ( i dont smoke, i wanted something to put in the hole...and some of my friends smoke, so it works) i might be working on getting LEDs for my tails, as during the day its hard to see the lights since theyre murdered out all black and stuff.

haha i need a fender roll in the back first. i literally have like credit card clearance between the fender lip and tire. and i shred my passenger front tire when i hit bumps. little triangle pieces come off. lol. i want to go another 1.5" lower, my lip will sit .5" off the ground *maniacal laugh*

well for anyone that still follows this thread, i ordered a new tire from NLmotoring to replace the one that i have in my passenger rear that is bald and showing the tire wear things. i sliced my finger on them metal threads putting the damn wheel on when i bought them. that was a fun discovery. anyways, they are Achilles ATR Sport 195/45-16 Tires and ill get Pepboys to install them if i cant find a cheaper place. they dont need to be stretched as the recommended wheel size is 6.0-7.5. i wish i had the money to buy all 4 165/45/16s that i want to stretch, but im broke so no stretch for me.

Dont get 16s or 17s. You will rub like a bitch no matter how much you roll and pull fenders. I was as low as you were with my stocks got the 16x7 et 25 work cr-kai. They rubbed very bad and had to raise tge car and adjust a lot. Sold those and got 15x8 et 15 xxr 531. They look great, fit amazingly and i can go as low as i wanted. Which i had to cut my tow hooks and front is literally a inch off the ground. Its all on how low you want to go though.

I have 17x7's with a high ish 30 something offset and only the fronts rub, but that can be easily fixed by getting the fenders rolled. The back with -2 degrees of camber will not rub even with the coils turned all of the way down for me.
Dylan, I have seen your posts about how good your elantra is, but I have yet to see a picture.
I don't mean this to offend you, but you really need pics before I believe your car looks like how you say it is.

good to see something new for a change, old bimmers and 240's just get old after awhile lol
REAR SETUP:
rear fender roll, extended lug bolts, camber kit and the 25mm spacers, but thats because i dont know if they make 12mm spacers. im not sure of the camber but ill probably max out the camber kit, unless i can find one that gets more than 1.75 degrees of adjustment.
FRONT SETUP:
i dont think ill need to roll the fronts as the lips are pretty much non-existent. but i want 10mm spacers, and a camber of like 2-3 degrees to fit those 195/45s properly
OTHER THINGS:
i found a garage where i can get a trunk lid for cheap, so i can SHAVE ALL THE EMBLEMS!!Last edited by ryanjblajda; 09-13-2012, 11:56 PM.
