What kind of spacers did you get for the 5mm and the 10mm?

I wanted to do the same thing for my setup but I dont know much about non studed spacers.

I'm use to using spacers that have the studs built in. I know project kick sells 10mm with studs built in but for 5mm I'm not so sure about.

Can someone explain to me if I would need extended studs for a 5mm? And is switching to longer studs easy?

You don't want to run spacers without extended studs... Just look up some picks of people who did and you'll see their accidents due to their wheels falling off.

Sick... How much are your fenders pulled to pull off -3* camber with your wheel specs?

She's coming along, slowly but surely. Car had to kind of take a back seat for right now since things have picked up at my job and I also go to school full time.

But, sways are here sitting in a box along with some braces that I need to install. Switched out to whiteline bushings. I got rid of the Strafespeed rear and switched back to OEM rear bumper.

I'm just waiting to order some new front and rear arms, something a bit more durable for the abuse on the track.

Son, thats sounding nice, your going to love the sways my favorite mod, i will suggest WhiteLine adjustable end-links so you can customize your preload

ive got mine set so it feels like 1:1 ratio on the steering

The links won't make it tighter, adj links can help get the sway response you like, longer than oem is more preload aka adds over steer and vise versa

I have my sways on stiffest setting front and middle setting rear with both front and rear links longer than oem, only time you need to be careful is curves on wet road (if you even drive in the rain, I don't)
