I Went Aggressive. Very Aggressive. (56K no way!)

[cabezzz]

Worst stance on SW?

Here are the specs:
-Elbrus 105
-17x7.5, et42
-5mm spacers out back
-Bridgestone Potenza RE-11
-215/45/17

The car is planned to be an Rally, rock climing whore, so no stretch, here. Car will be stammed as soon as I have the money. But, considering I just spent over $1500 on the wheels/ tires, that may not be for a while.

Fixed

Welcome to SW

i auto-x'd my a4 last year, so i can understand your mentality.

[cobrawannabe]

get over the price, he quite obviously stated his purpose. if you failed to read that, thats your problem.

Hahaha thanks, man!

[.Mad Hatter.]

I'm not sure why you spent $1500 on wheels that are only 7.5" wide, but different strokes for different folks

At least you didn't put chrome dubz on it, yo it still is a step in the right direction, like somebody else said

Thanks! The tires were half the cost, btw.

Must resi.. Must resist ur.. Must resist urge. Aw fuck it.

Your badge is wrong, it says zx4, i'sent it suppose to say 4x4?

, had to, sorry.

I was considering replacing the z with a 4. I may actually do it, now.

tough crowd.

what do you plan on lowering it on? coilovers? sleeves?

Full coilovers. I already have half a set of upper/ lower strut braces, Energy links, and upgraded brakes on the car. I just need the lowers, then I'll do the coilovers, and adjustable alignment kit; and the chassis should be done.

im sorry but in the one post, you said that you prefer performance over looks. this might be the wrong site for you lol. most of these guys (including me very soon) are slammed on wide wheels and tiny tires, which arent good for lots of things but we prefer form over function. most of us, not all though

Hahahaha, true. I LOVE stance, so I love SW (and MOST of the guys on here a very cool. Some of them have kinda disappointed me, especially since I have been 100% nice and supportive to each and every one. That guy with the nice 5-series comes specifically to mind....)

You guys are pretty douchy today aren't you. I think he got it after the first 10 posts. No need to keep bashing.

Hahahaha, yeah, I got the point like post #10 or so.

Um... k..

But cool on being an autocross car. :thumbs up:

i bought expensive tires once....

[JDR]

At least now I know I didn't have to doubt as to showing my car to all of you. I thought it didn't have enough to gather compliments. But now I see I REALLY HAZ DA PERFECT FITMENT with my Sportlines 2" drop. At least I can't go Rally-Trophy without any damage to my bumpers

cobrawannabe, btw 3" drop DOES make the car slammed and DOES CHANGE the geometry of Focus suspension. Even 2" drop is an excessive drop for stock suspension if we speak about performance. So dropping your car 3" down will kill handling but will not get you close to a nice stance due to those 7.5-inchers. In any case ZX4 is not the best car for AutoX. So better go STANCE.

[NELSON09]

once you lower it, you will need at least 25mm spacers..

^^^this. and just so you have an idea, my wheels are 8.5 wide, I'm running a 25mm spacer up front and a 30 on the rears. Front is perfect to my liking but the rears are weak sauce.

[sixonefive]

ok i agree that it doesnt look that good right now but with a healthy drop it could look ok...

a cheap mod that i think would look good would be to take the ford badge off the front grill and paint the mesh black...would look better than silver imo
