lol this has to be the FIRST thread on SW where someone gets bashed!
Theres a very good point here, calling it very aggressive. and having everyone super stoked to see what you have done, and its stock. Is a HUGE let down.
Oh well, next time. Pick an appropriated title, like Ford Focus on after-market wheels, 4x4 status.
But seriously. Did you consider some 17x9s? From what I can see you could have fit some 9s, atleast 8.5s, and stretched the same tires on them. This would have given you stretch and more flushness without taking anything away. With a bit of camber and lowness those wheels are going to sink like hell. It's whatever, but to call it Very Aggressive on a Stance forum is simply asking for a hard time. There's nothing aggressive about ordering stock spec wheels off tire rack. Ya know?
once you lower it, you will need at least 25mm spacers..
It may not look like it in the pics, but I dropped a plumb bob from the edge of the fender, and it touched the edge of the wheel/tire. I'm sure they might sink a touch once th car is lowered, but there's no way it would wind up doing that much damage
Sorry bout that I always wanted to use those pictures. I like the start you've made and cool your going to be doing autocross, Good luck!
Aggressive is generally wide rims and lots of low. But your going in the right direction for what you want to do. As above though I wouldn't slam an autocross car, you'll be needing travel. Also some advice, check on these forums when you are looking to buy parts coz they may be cheaper and/or someone might know where to get them cheap
Hahaha no worries, they're actually funny I know what the forum considers aggressive, I just kinda lost sight of that when I posted hahahaha. The car won't be getting slammed-slammed, but it will be getting about 3" of drop or so.
